Caramel Hair Color is Trending for Fall—Here Are 15 Stunning Examples to Bring to Your Colorist

By Kaitlyn Yarborough

As far as fall hair goes, we want something fresh, new, and a little bit toasty to fit the season. That’s why we aren’t calling our colorist for platinum blonde, but honey gold instead. Caramel brown hair is the one color on-trend for fall that’ll make you look wonderfully warmed-up and bright, no matter how you do it.

Somewhere between brunette and blonde, this shade instantly puts the pep back in your step, the oomph back in your hoof. Pick something zingy like golden caramel or rich like caramelly cinnamon—just don’t miss out on fall’s most popular color. Here are 15 gorgeous examples of caramel hair color to show your colorist ASAP.
