Do You Change Your Hair Color According To The Season?

Do You Change Your Hair Color With the Seasons?

September 22, 2009

Today marks the official first day of Fall. Do you feel a crispness in the air already? Here, in San Francisco, not so much, as we're going through a bit of a heat wave these days. However, every time we experience an official change of season, this get gets me to thinking about switching up the old hair color palette. So tell me: No matter the season, do you go lighter when the flowers start blooming in March, get your streak on when the warmer-weather rolls in, and/or go dramatically dark for the cooler months? Or is it just that you have your own hair color schedule?

If my clients get drastically blond during the spring and summer, I will recommend that they "warm up" during the fall and winter. The look is less harsh and works really well with skin tones during those seasons. However, seasons don't "look" the same all over the world so who is to say what colors go best with what season? The fall and winter in south Georgia looks like summer in Vermont. What suits the individual is best.

I've colored my hair a couple of times, but never anything to do with the seasons. I do sometimes get the urge to do it again, though. :)

I've never died my hair before, I don't plan to either :)

I wish I could have virgin hair - but my natural hair is a dark ash blonde color that looks gray under fluorescent lights, and bleaches to the a driftwood color in the sun. It's truly hideous.

I always go darker in fall/winter, and lighten it up for spring/summer. I like the change.

Virgin hair, it's auburn and kind of a weird color so I'd be scared that it would be hard to duplicate it dying back.

I just do whatever I feel like doing..the season doesn't really matter to me.

Virgin hair too! But my hair is jet black - kinda hard to colour it.

I usually go with more highlights in the summer and heavier lowlights in the winter.

I change my hair color with the seasons and my hubby thinks I'm so crazy. My complexion changes quite a bit over the course of a year - I'm really washed out and bone white in the winter but tan (even with sunblock) in the summer. I have to be careful that my hair color compliments whatever my skintone is so my hairstylist is constantly adjusting my color. I'm blonde in the summer, light brown/dark blonde in the fall, medium brown in the winter, and usually a red in the spring since I'm palest then.
