Beat the heat 🥵🔥 and start thinking about fall....As fall 2025 approaches, salon owners and stylists have the opportunity to refresh their offerings with seasonal services that match what clients are searching for — and what they’ll soon be asking about.
In this fall trend report, we’re forecasting the top 2025 fall salon color trends, cutting-edge styles, and professional products that will shape your retail and service menus. Let’s dive into the must-know fall hair trends that will keep your chair full and your retail shelves moving.
🍁 1. Earthy Luxe: Rich, Rooted Tones
This fall is all about grounding color — think deep auburns, rich chocolates, and toasted caramels. These dimensional tones offer both subtle sophistication and maximum wearability.
Why it matters: Clients are moving away from high-maintenance color and toward deeper, more natural hues that grow out seamlessly.
Color Service Tip: Use Silky by HSA’s Coloration Cream for multidimensional brunettes with added shine and scalp protection.
🛒 Retail Tie-In: Offer Silky .02 Color Maintenance Shampoo and Trilogy Leave-In to keep tones rich and vibrant.
💇♀️ 2. The “Soft Structure” Cut
Sharp lines are out — organic, softened layers are in. The most requested cuts this season balance movement with structure: curtain bangs, butterfly layers, and tousled long bobs.
Why it matters: Stylists can upsell blowout and texture services while recommending products that support long-lasting style.
Service Tip: Recommend Keratherapy's Root Boost & Volume Crème for clients wanting full-bodied looks with minimal styling effort.
🔥 3. Copper & Rust Renaissance
Vivid copper and rust tones are dominating TikTok and runway previews for Fall/Winter 2025. These tones bring warmth and individuality back to the spotlight.
Customize copper shades using OYA Wild Direct Color for depth and coverage, or intensify tones with Puring (formerly Tutto) Hair Color for rich, vibrant reflections.
🛒 Don’t forget the retail: Sell a glossing or conditioning treatment like It’s a 10 Miracle Mask to help copper clients maintain vibrancy.
🌫️ 4. Soft Diffused Texture
Clients are loving air-dried, undone finishes. From natural waves to diffused curls, the look is “unstyled but intentional.”
Styling Tip: Showcase express services for air-dried looks using Silky Trilogy Leave-In Conditioner or OYA Leave-In Conditioning Spray.
🎓 Educate your team: Demonstrate the finish live in salon or via your social channels.
💡 5. Express Color Services for Seasonal Shifts
Quick touch-ups, glosses, and root refreshes are in high demand. Clients want seasonal updates without full commitment.
Service Idea: Promote “30-Minute Fall Color Refresh” services for busy professionals.
🛠️ Pair with OYA Color Remover to clean up uneven tones or make room for fresh fall color.
