Forget fiery reds and complex heatless curl routines, there’s a new hair color trend taking over fall 2024: teddy bear brown. This cozy, versatile shade is quickly becoming a favorite among celebrities and hair experts alike, thanks to its low-maintenance nature and flattering, warm tones.
“Daisy Edgar-Jones is a perfect example of this trending hair color,” says Jenna Perry, celebrity hairstylist and owner of a renowned salon in SoHo. Edgar-Jones, who previously sported golden highlights, has embraced the teddy bear brown trend, showcasing its ability to transform a look from summery to fall-ready.
This season’s hair trends are leaning towards a more classic approach, with subtle ombré accents at the ends. “It’s a gorgeous color for anyone who wants a low-maintenance, high-impact dye job. It can be achieved using highlighting techniques and can be played around with depending on your hair texture,” explains Perry.
For those seeking the perfect salon experience, Perry suggests requesting “demipermanent Quicksand (9,03) highlights” from R&Co. The combination of this hue and a flattering haircut can rejuvenate your look for the upcoming season.
Model Barbara Palvin, who graced the recent Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, is another notable example of the teddy bear brown trend’s rise. “It’s called teddy bear brown because it falls somewhere between the blonde and brunette tones we’ve seen trending,” highlighting the warm, inviting quality reminiscent of the iconic childhood toy.
Celebrity stylist Evanie Frausto, who counts Lady Gaga and Sabrina Carpenter among her clients, advocates for “a honey blonde with warm tones to give your hair a shine.” This natural-looking root allows for a seamless growth transition, adding to the low-maintenance appeal of the trend.
So, embrace the warmth of fall with this new hair trend! You’ll be perfectly styled with a teddy bear brown dye job and a cozy sweater as you enjoy a warm beverage and leisurely autumn walks.
