Spooky season is upon us! Clients are sure to want to transition from bright and vibrant summer shades to cooler, more ashy tones that are classic fall hair color formulas.

But don’t do the same old boring thing! In our Formula Friday this week, find fun fall hair color formulas using low-tox and ammonia-free Oway and Original & Mineral color. From copper to lilac and with caramel ribbons in between, there is a tone every client will love.

A fall classic, brunette, is transformed with a super rich brown color and lightened ends. We love this innovative take on a brunette tone. To create a fun mocha tone with O&M CØR.color, try the fall hair color formula below.

@lexismithhair formula:

I balayaged with O&M Paint Powder Clay Lightener (and a little O&M Ammonia-Free Keratin Blue Powder Lightener mixed in) and O&M CØR.color 30 vol Activator and a couple drops of O&M CØR.color 40 vol Activator! She had previous black box dye so had an uneven canvas and toned with O&M CØR.color 5.0 Light Brown!

What is more fall than pumpkin spice? This classic fall hair color formula keeps things bright with beautiful light ribbons mixed in with a classic pumpkin tone. For the clients who can’t get enough PSL’s this season, give this formula a try.

[I lightened with] Oway Hbleach Butter Cream Lightener with Oway Hcatalyst 20 Volume Cream Developer.

Color glaze with O&M CØR.nudes 9.13 Very Light Cool Beige Blonde with O&M CØR.color 3.5 vol Activator.

Alternating baby light and foliage throughout.

A bright blonde with a melted root makes for the perfect fall hair color formula. Keep clients light while incorporating the season with the O&M formula below.

@indyxhair formula:

I used O&M!

Her hair was a grown-out balayage, and she was wanting more brightness throughout. So I transitioned her over with a foilyage and baby lights! + a little wet balayage.

I then root shadowed her with O&M CØR.color 8.0 Light Blonde + O&M CØR.color 8.3 Light Golden Blonde & melted O&M CØR.color 10.0 Lightest Blonde & O&M CØR.color 10.3 Lightest Golden Blonde through her ends. For 20 minutes. 

For a lighthearted purple just silver enough for fall yet purple enough to feel fresh and young, try the formula below.

@elevateorganichairsalon formula:

We balayage the front with Oway Hbleach Butter Cream Lightener and Oway Hcatalyst 30 Volume Cream Developer, then used O&M CØR.color Lilac Toner and O&M CØR.color 5 vol Activator.

Be bold with this fiery copper red tone perfect for the season. For a bold client that can rock a copper tone, try the fall hair color formula below.

@lovenaturalbyashton formula:

I used Oway for this color. She had grown out level 8 highlights from another stylist.

I mixed 15g Oway Hcolor 5.6 Red Light Brown, 15g Oway Hcolor 6.66 Deep Red Dark Blonde, and 1g Oway Hcolor 6.4 Coppery Dark Blonde and 32g Oway Htone 9 Volume Cream Developer for the new growth. I mixed 30g Oway Hcolor 5.6 Red Light Brown, 30g Oway Hcolor 6.66 Deep Red Dark Blonde, and 3g Oway Hcolor 8.4 Coppery Light Blonde with 63g Oway Htone 9 Volume Cream Developer for mid and ends.

I applied new growth color first, then immediately went back through and applied mid/end formula. Let process for 30 minutes.

Keep it classic with a bronde balayage full of caramel toned ribbons that instantly elevate the look. For a classic fall hair color, try the process below.
