As the evenings grow shorter and we dust off our umbrellas for another cosy British autumn (how gorgeous was summer this year though?!), many of us start reaching for the fake tan and warm jumpers. The shops are full of chunky knits, boots, and that early whisper of the “C word” (don’t panic, we mean cocktails not Christmas just yet).
But what excites us most here at Piper Violet Hair Twickenham is not just pumpkin spice lattes or party season, it’s the incredible autumn hair trends of 2025.
Every season brings change, and your hair should be no exception. Just as the leaves transform into rich browns, coppers, and golds, your colour can evolve too. Autumn is one of the best times to embrace a colour change, especially if you’ve spent summer in the sun, on holiday, or simply letting your balayage grow out.
At Piper Violet, we’ve seen clients from across Twickenham, Richmond, and South West London embrace the new season with shades that add depth, dimension, and warmth, perfect for the colder months. Our role as London hair colour specialists is to help you find a shade that not only reflects the trends but also suits your skin tone, lifestyle, and personality.
Brunettes Take the Lead This Season
Brunette hair really shines in autumn. Without harsh UV rays fading or lifting unwanted undertones, your rich brunette glosses, chocolate shades, and dimensional lowlights last longer and stay looking luxe.
Top brunette shades for autumn 2025:
Espresso Martini Brunette : deep, glossy, and sophisticated, just like your favourite evening cocktail.
Ganache Brown : indulgent, chocolatey tones with soft depth.
Mocha-on-Mocha : layering multiple mocha tones for an expensive, lived-in feel.
Fawn Brown : lighter, wearable brunettes for those transitioning from blonde.
One of the biggest brunette trends this year is lived-in dimension , subtle ribbons of tone woven through darker hair to create richness, movement, and glow.
It’s a perfect low-maintenance colour change that looks polished without feeling overdone.
Blondes with Autumn Glow
Summer blondes often sparkle thanks to natural sunlight, but as the evenings draw in, autumn is about adding warmth, golden undertones, and creamy textures. Cool icy blondes are taking a back seat this season, making way for softer, buttery blondes that glow under cosy pub lighting and festive fairy lights.
Top blonde shades for autumn 2025:
Crème Brûlée Blonde – golden, creamy, and soft – a warmer twist on the classic balayage.
Honey Butter Highlights – rich honey tones blended with buttery blondes for multi-tonal shine.
Velvet Blonde – luxe and sophisticated, with a smooth finish that feels effortlessly chic.
Mushroom Blonde – a modern mix of cool and warm tones, creating dimension without harsh contrasts.
At Piper Violet Hair, we often recommend blondes consider adding a touch of warmth during autumn. Not only does it complement seasonal fashion, but it also makes hair appear healthier and more radiant.
Redheads & Coppers Steal the Spotlight
Nothing says autumn quite like red and copper hair colours. These shades thrive in autumn light and pair beautifully with the seasonal wardrobe. From bold statement reds to subtle copper-infused brunettes, these shades bring confidence and character to your look.
Top red and copper shades for autumn 2025:
Cowboy Copper : one of the year’s most talked-about trends, a burnt-orange tone that feels bold yet natural.
Cherry Cola : a brunette-red hybrid that is glossy, fashion-forward, and super flattering.
Classic Copper : timeless, bright, and attention-grabbing.
Deep Auburn : for those who want depth without the vibrancy of brighter reds.
Red tones are particularly flattering in autumn because they echo the warmth of falling leaves and flatter the golden tones of autumn fashion. Whether you’re going for subtle or striking, our London colour specialists can customise your red to suit your complexion.
Beyond Colour: Texture, Dimension & Shine
Autumn isn’t just about choosing a single shade , it’s about layering tones, enhancing texture, and working with shine. Techniques such as balayage, lived-in colour, and glossing treatments are key this season. They add depth and movement to hair while remaining low-maintenance, meaning your colour still looks beautiful months down the line.
For many clients in Twickenham and across London, autumn is also the time to refresh condition. Summer often leaves hair feeling dry or sun-damaged, so adding glossing services, deep conditioning, or multi-tonal lowlights helps restore shine and health while also aligning with the season’s trends.
Why Autumn is the Perfect Time for a Colour Change
Seasonal change is the best opportunity to rethink your hair. Just as we update our wardrobes, a hair refresh gives you a confidence boost and ensures your look feels current. For our Twickenham clients, autumn is one of the most popular times for:
Gloss top-ups to revive faded summer colour.
Balayage refreshes with warmer tones.
Bold new colour changes such as brunette-to-red transformations.
Dimensional highlights to add movement and shine to darker hair.
And with party season just around the corner, a new hair colour now will carry you beautifully through to December events.
At Piper Violet Hair Twickenham, we’re passionate about helping clients embrace the beauty of seasonal change. Whether you’re considering a subtle refresh, a bold new shade, or simply need expert advice, our award-winning team of London hair specialists will guide you every step of the way.
We’re thrilled to be recognised as ‘Salon of the Year 2’ you can read more about our award here.
