Cinnamon blonde: The new hair colour we’ll all be begging our hairdresser for this winter

Trine Jensen-Burke

Autumn is the perfect time if you fancy changing up your hair colour a little (or a lot).

Why? Well, because, unlike in summer, you won’t be making the colour fade too quickly by subjecting it to sunshine and sea swims – or worse, swimming pools. Also, let us remind you that Christmas party season is about to kick off soon, meaning there is of course no better time to have your locks looking their absolute best.

If this is you, and you can’t wait to test something a little different when it comes to your colour, we reckon you are going to love the hair colour we (and Pinterest at large) are all obsessed with right now.

Cinnamon blonde – it even sounds delicious, no?

And guys – it is.

According to Refinery 29, Alexis Antonellis, a colorist at Eddie Arthur Salon in Manhattan, explained that she is loving this seasonal shade.

“Copper or cinnamon-tinted blonde highlights are an easy way to elevate your color,” Antonellis explains.

And if you’re interested in adding a touch of cinnamon or red-based blonde highlight without taking the color all over, Diaz, a colorist at NYC’s Bumble and bumble salon, told Refinery 29that that face-framing highlight is the perfect baby step. “I love the look of warm highlights around the perimeter of the face frame, with natural depth at the root,” she explains. “The goal is to have low maintenance color that brightens the complexion using warmth and highlights in the right places.”
