10 Ombré Hair Ideas to Inspire Your Fall Color
If you're looking for a subtle way to shake up your hair color for fall, put these ombre hair ideas on your list.
"Ombre hair is popular because the soft fade from dark gives you the lift of highlights without the maintenance," says Maddison Cave from the David Mallett salon in New York. "It’s usually something you can let grow out for a while because having a root is part of the look."

As if the fact that it's a low-maintenance look is not enough of a perk, ombre hair can also give the illusion that your lightened up look is natural, Cave says. You can achieve this by asking for a "tone on tone" look, creating less contrast between light and dark hair colors, she says.
"[It's] like you’ve been in the sun all summer," Cave says.
Of course, you can also play around with bold colors, like rose gold, silver, blue and purple. Keep scrolling to find the ombre look that will work for you.
