Pure Elegance by DESSANGE
This hairstyle collection by DESSANGE draws its inspiration from all the beautiful colors of autumn. Warm copper browns, chocolate brunettes, champagne blondes, and honey blondes—take your pick, because this collection has it all.
Changing up your hairstyle and hair color is always a good idea, especially at the beginning of a new season. And what better place to draw inspiration from than Mother Nature herself?
Flawless Blonde
The top section of this model’s hair has been highlighted with very fine and tightly packed highlights, giving it a very light, summer blonde color. The bottom section has been colored with a light brown tint, which enhances the color play and hue dimensions of the overall style.
Her hair is cut into very long layers, with the layers especially concentrated around her face. The long and thick bangs create a wispy and almost enigmatic element to the style, which beautifully complements the model’s strong features.
Glamorous Tumbling Locks
This is one of those perfect old-school styles that look as effortlessly cool in a fashion photo shoot as they do in a hippie-era movie.
The model’s very long, layered hair has been thinned out, especially along the tips and around the bottom section of the front, so that it frames her face in a style reminiscent of Jennifer Aniston’s character in Friends.
The model’s naturally light hair has been lightened with a full head of tightly packed highlights to achieve this beautiful, natural-looking blonde color.
Revisited Chignon
Here we have a stunning "styled-unstyled" hairstyle that has been making a huge comeback on the catwalk, as well as with fashion and hair bloggers.
The model’s very light blonde hair has been slicked with wet-look gel along the roots and mid-lengths, and combed upwards towards the top of her head. It has been divided into two ponytails: the "back" ponytail is rolled forward, and the "front" or fringe ponytail is rolled backward.
The "styled-unstyled" look makes a perfect statement style for when you want to capture everyone’s attention for all the right reasons.
Top Volume Updo
This is a very interesting hairstyle that leans more towards a creative look than an everyday type of style.
The model’s long, fine hair has been slicked back with wet-look gel and a fine-tooth comb, and pulled into a semi-low ponytail at the back. It has then been divided into two sections, which have been twisted around each other to create a cool, twisted look. The twisted mass has been pinned onto the model’s head in a way that resembles a "cone" mounted on her head.
Glamorous Waves
This cut and color actually remind one of Meghan Trainor’s hair, although Meghan’s hair is quite a bit longer. People rave about this young woman’s unique sense of style and strong personality, perfectly embodied by her red locks.
The model’s hair has been cut into a shoulder-length, layered style with a thick and full, wispy fringe. The hair is a lighter copper-red along the tips and a richer medium copper brown at the roots. Her hair has been curled into big, full curls with a curling tong for a fun and almost wild look.
Feminine Bob
Here we have a hairstyle that has been hot for the past few years, regardless of season or country. The model’s hair has been cut into a chin-length bob that has been layered along the tips and around her face to create a very wispy, feathery cut full of movement and dimension.
Note that her very light blonde hair has been treated with a honey-champagne colored toner to amplify the warmer, softer tones of autumn. The model’s oval face and strong jawline work very well with this cut, while the blonde complements her fair skin and light eyes perfectly.
Fifties Inspiration
The model’s hair is cut into a medium-short, very layered style. Her hair is relatively fine yet quite dense, making this a perfect style for her. The stylists rolled her hair with curlers and gently brushed the curls out to give it a very modern and sophisticated look.
Her hair has been colored with a dark chocolate tint, which offsets the model’s pale skin and light blue eyes. The very subtle copper highlights recall the warm hues and tints of a beautiful autumn. Note how well this hairstyle suits her angular face shape, high cheekbones, and strong jawline.
Airy Bob
This is the same model and haircut as in the previous picture, but the stylists have changed the styling for this shoot. Here, we have the short layered bob styled into something akin to a modern "Brady Bunch" style, but in a good way.
The layers have been blow-dried outwards or in a concave form to create that real 60s and 70s look. The long wispy fringe complements this style perfectly, while the dark brown color transforms the whole look into something enigmatic and mysterious. This hairstyle works extremely well with oval or heart-shaped faces, especially with thin or fine hair.
A Breath of Air
Here we have another old-school look revived with a fresh twist. The model’s layered short hairstyle has been created with the main idea of achieving maximum texture and movement.
The tips have been vigorously thinned out with thinning shears, while the stylist also used a razor to create wispy feathers, especially along the face.
The hair is colored with a dark chocolate brown hue, with lighter copper-brown highlights scattered around to lighten up the overall effect and add to the color dimension and movement of the style.
