As Joico colour specialists in Wantage, our team can create a bespoke colour that works with your complexion, natural hair and lifestyle. Here are four of our favourite Autumn Hair Colour Trends for 2026.
Key Takeaways
Autumn 2026 hair colour is all about gloss, dimension and healthy-looking hair.
Lived-in balayage remains a favourite for soft, natural-looking colour and an easy grow-out.
Cherry mocha is perfect for adding rich, warm depth to brunette hair.
Champagne blonde offers a softer, more luxurious take on bright blonde.
A professional colour consultation will help you find the perfect autumn shade to suit your hair, skin tone and style.
1. Glossy, Healthy-Looking Colour
One of the biggest hair colour trends of 2026 isn't a specific shade – it's beautifully glossy, healthy-looking hair.
Rich brunettes, radiant reds and luminous blondes all look even better with incredible shine. Toners and glossing services can be used to refresh your existing colour, enhance your tone and bring dull or faded colour back to life.
At Segais, we can also recommend the best Joico haircare to help protect your colour and keep your hair looking healthy and glossy between salon visits.
2. Lived-In Balayage
Balayage isn't going anywhere, but this autumn we're loving an even softer, more lived-in finish.
Think beautifully blended colour, a natural-looking root and carefully placed lighter pieces that add brightness and dimension without looking overly highlighted.
Lived-in balayage can also offer a softer grow-out, making it perfect if you love gorgeous colour but don't want to be back in the salon for a full colour appointment every few weeks.
3. Cherry Mocha
If you're ready to embrace something richer for autumn, cherry mocha could be the shade for you.
This gorgeous trend combines a deep brunette base with cherry, burgundy or red-wine tones. Depending on how bold you want to go, the red can be beautifully subtle or dialled up for a much more noticeable transformation.
Glossy, dimensional and perfect for the new season, it's a gorgeous way to give brunette hair a warmer, richer feel.
4. Champagne Blonde
You certainly don't need to go darker just because autumn has arrived.
Champagne blonde is a beautifully soft alternative to ultra-cool, icy blonde, combining creamy beige, delicate golden tones and brightness for a luminous finish.
Your Segais colourist can tailor your blonde to suit you, whether you want plenty of brightness around the face, a more natural root or deeper pieces woven through the hair for added dimension.
