The Stars Have Aligned: These Are the Fall Hair Colours You Should Try Based on Your Sign

Changing your hair colour is always a big decision, and with dozens of options jumping out at you every day – like “champagne pop” and “honey blonde” – deciding on just one fall hair-colour transition might be a little tough. But if the internet has taught us anything, it’s that there’s an easier way of determining these things that don’t involve much trial and error: your zodiac sign.

Your astrological sign says a lot about you: what you’re like, what people might experience when they’re around you, and in general, the best words that describe your personality, but we think it’s also a great tool to use when determining what colour to dye your hair.

If your Instagram feed and a constant barrage of insider hair-trend knowledge isn’t doing much to help you narrow down a hue, keep reading to see our predictions on what fall hair colour you should try according to your zodiac sign.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Amaretto Biscotti

You’re often characterized as organized and focused, but you can be playful and lighthearted when you want to be. You need a warm golden blond colour like amaretto biscotti (sounds delicious, right?) to match your two moods: simple and fun.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Plum

You’re a bit of a rebel at heart, so you need a hair colour that’s just as out of the box and unconventional – like plum.

Aries (March 21-April 19): Evergreen

You’re known for being bold and ambitious, and more than anything, you love marching to the beat of your own drum. That’s why a hair color like evergreen is especially suited for your personality. “If your style is ultraedgy, a forest-green hair color is where it’s at,” colorist Rex Jimieson previously told POPSUGAR. “Green is a mix of blue and yellow, so it looks good on warm and cool skin tones.”

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Jet Black

OK, so you have a reputation for being quite stubborn and bossy – but you’re also incredibly loyal. Jet black is your colour because it’s very traditional but it also lets you express your powerful energy in another way.

Gemini (May 21-June 20): Chunky Highlights

Your symbol is the twins, which means you’re known by many for having two sides to your personality. You’re also very fun and expressive, so a two-toned hair colour like chunky highlights best represents the duality of your identity.

Cancer (June 21-July 22): Black Espresso

Cancer is an emotional sign who’s often highly sensitive to the environment around them. Seasons like fall usually make you feel moody, and for that reason, black espresso, a dark brown color that almost looks black, is the perfect color to fit your aesthetic. Jimieson said achieving the hue is as simple as adding “black to your medium or dark-brown base color with foils or balayage rather than going completely solid. Ask for a demi-permanent so you can change it down the road and it will be super shiny.”

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Champagne Pop

You’re bold, dramatic, confident, and often the life of the party. You’re usually able to grab everyone’s attention as soon as you step into a room, so the eye-popping colour that makes the most sense for you is “champagne pop,” also known as “ballerina blonde.” This is what you get when you add a sprinkle of pink colour to blonde hair.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Spiced Gold

On top of being super practical, your personality is very warm and inviting – kind of like a spiced latte. You need a low-maintenance colour like spiced gold – a mixture of golden and copper highlights on top of a natural, dark hair colour – to match your persona.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Amethyst Brown

You’re all about your life having balance, but you often struggle with being indecisive, which is why a hybrid colour like amethyst brown would fit you perfectly. It’s pretty, it’s moody, and it also gives you the best of both worlds by adding a subtle muted violet tone to your medium brown base.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Black Cherry

Red is often used to symbolize passion, intensity, and powerful energy, and while you are a very intense and seductive person, you’re also very warm. For that reason, we can’t think of a better colour to match your energy than black cherry, one that fuses deep red hues with dark brown or black hair.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Chocolate Almond

You’re very adventurous and free-spirited, but you also have a tendency to get bored with things very quickly. Your lack of concentration and consistent need for change makes chocolate almond the perfect colour for you since it’s a low-maintenance choice that requires very minimal upkeep.
