15 hair Fall style ideas

With summer officially over now we have said goodbye to beach blonde and sun-kissed hair but one keeps on missing that flawless glow of the sun on your tresses and we keep hoping that somehow being blonde becomes a trend all year round. So there is an absolute burst of happiness for those who love hints of blonde, as the trendiest and the hottest hair colour of the Fall/Winter 2018 season is Vanilla Chai! Yup – you heard that right, and it is NOT a Starbucks drink, rather is a gorgeous gorgeous shade of brunette and blonde fused in together. Created by Amy McManus, the Vanilla Chai is a cool toned ash blonde hair colour and the perfect words to describe it will be a warm chai tea infused with sweet vanilla, where you get that zing of the brightness of vanilla along with the darkness of tea. Perfect for the transitional and the cold season, the latest Vanilla Chai hair colour is all about delicious dark roots cascading down into a light blonde shade. Amy McManus is the fame of social media network Instagram account Camouflage and Balayage, and coined this shade for a Fall bride who was a natural dark blonde but wanted more brightness and dimension. The Vanilla Chai latte shade took over four sessions to create on the client, and using balayage technique only on her client’s dark base, extra lift was given. Two shades of blonde were used by McManus to get that ‘icy pieces’ look and softer blondes from previous sessions gave an overall blonde finish that was quite ‘believable’. On her bridal client, the hair artist worked over a year to achieve that perfect look and ended up creating Vanilla Chai. The shade has now become the hottest shade for this season and more and more fashionistas are flocking to salons to get their hair coloured to Vanilla Chai. One thing to keep in mind is that Vanilla Chai gives best results on a natural dark blonde or light brunette. If your hair does not fall into this category and you have medium to dark hair, worry not, you just have to ask for foils from your colourist. Vanilla Chai will serve as a fresh and stunning start to the cool season, and since it is so new and happening, it will surely become a style statement. It is diverse and a perfect balance of blonde and brunette, and it is up to you how ‘blonde’ you want to take the look. If you are not sure you want to go a complete Vanilla Chai, you can also just opt for Vanilla Chai highlights. Another fabulous thing about this hair colour is that since the roots are dark, you won’t have to worry about retouching them quite often. You can also say that in a way Vanilla Chai is an ombre look, created specifically by balayage, but you can have your take on it, and from the days of Coffee Blonde and Chai Latte hair colours, Vanilla Chai has superseded all those and has fast become the most Instagram worthy shade of the season. So book a date with your colourist today and talk about going Vanilla Chai!
