Hair Tips: Three Top Hair Trends for Fall 2013

Even though the calendar tells us that the new year starts in January, Fall is undoubtably the season for new beginnings. People everywhere are craving a change, and what better way to start fresh than with a new haircut and color? Get ready for the latest, most-desired hair styles with these top three Matrix hair trends of Fall 2013.

In The Middle
This season, everyone from supermodels to celebrities to fashion editors is trading their long, sun-damaged locks for a fresher, newer mid-length cut, and for good reason: the not-too-long, not-too-short, shoulder-grazing hairstyle is flattering on just about everyone. Help your clients ditch their dry, sun-damaged ends for a healthier and shinier look. With the "lob" (long bob), style options are practically endless. For a sleek, polished look, add some Matrix Biolage Whipped Volume to clients' damp hair, and smooth with a flat iron once hair has dried. Or, mist sections of your client's hair with Matrix Biolage Thermal Active Setting Spray and twist around a curling wand to create loose, tousled waves. Whether stylishly sleek, or carefree and curly, mid-length cuts are endlessly versatile.

Mocha Highlights
Thanks to stars like Jennifer Lopez and Eva Mendes who have set the stage with rich, dynamic, mocha-colored highlights, we can safely say that highlights aren't just for blondes any more. Avoid the ever-dreaded brassiness often associated with darker highlights, and instead achieve luscious, creamy lights with professional hair color advancements such as Matrix COLORINSIDER ammonia-free hair color.

Peaches and Cream
Summer fruit is still ripe in this Fall trend that's all about peachy tones, pale apricot hues and hints of tangerine cream. Offer your brave-hearted clients the option of all-over color, or, for the more subtle, create a few discreet strands that can peek out form an ivory blonde base. Either way, clients will be delighted at how harmoniously these hues meld with Fall's earth-toned fashion palette.
