Autumn Hair Trends 2024

Top Hair Colour and Care Advice at Karen Wright Salon in Thornton Heath

As autumn settles in, it’s the perfect time to embrace new hair trends while keeping your afro hair healthy and vibrant. From stunning hair colours to nourishing treatments, this season offers plenty of ways to refresh your look and protect your curls. Whether you’re looking for a bold change or subtle updates, here are some top autumn hair trends for afro hair, along with tips on how to maintain healthy, hydrated locks.

Embracing Autumn Hair Colours

For this season, rich, warm tones are ideal for afro hair.

One of the standout colours is rich burgundy - a deep red hue that adds warmth and depth, perfect for autumn and complements darker skin tones beautifully. Another great option is caramel balayage, which brings subtle dimension and softness to your curls, mimicking the golden hues of autumn leaves.

If you prefer a more understated change, chocolate brown offers a natural and elegant look that remains timeless through any season.

Autumn Styles for Afro and Textured Hair

In addition to colour, protective styles are essential for maintaining hair health during the colder months. Box braids are a versatile option, allowing for low-maintenance styling while protecting your hair from dryness and breakage.

Twists, such as two-strand twists, offer a sleek and stylish way to reduce manipulation, keeping your curls intact. For a bolder look, bantu knots add flair while shielding your hair from the elements, perfect for both casual days and special occasions.

Nourishing Treatments for Healthy Curls

As the weather cools, your afro hair needs extra hydration. Incorporating a weekly deep conditioning mask helps to lock in moisture, ensuring your curls stay soft and manageable. A gentle scalp treatment can also soothe dryness and irritation that comes with the change in season, promoting overall hair health.

For a finishing touch, using a lightweight hair oil like Davines OI Oil will keep your hair hydrated and shiny without weighing it down.
