“I always get my hair done at Plaza Hair Salon. Mai makes my hair look fabulous!”

As temperatures drop and leaves turn to awe-inspiring red, brown, and orange hues, many of our clients feel like it’s time for a fresh hair color, and going red for fall is a classic choice.
The spectrum of red hues is broad, ranging from warm copper to deep auburn, making it perfect for this new season. Red strands will add warmth and vibrance to your hair, but knowing what hues will work for you can be challenging with the wide array of red shades.
Trendy Hair Styles to Add More Spice - Balayage and Ombre
Balayage and Ombre are undoubtedly the most popular choices for hair coloring techniques trending this fall. Ombré creates a distinct horizontal — dramatic or seamless — color transition with darker roots, lighter ends, or the opposite with reverse ombre.
Balayage is a hair-highlighting technique that creates a subtle, vertically applied color transition—focusing on a vertical placement. Both Balayage and Ombre experiment with various red hues and highlighting techniques, infusing the hair color with a generous dose of spicy edge and warmth.
What's new in 2024 is that hairstylists often combine these two hair coloring techniques, creating countless possibilities for a more personalized, sophisticated, or dramatic look. In addition to long hair, pixie, bob, and lob haircuts also offer a great canvas for experimenting with an autumn-inspired color palette, adding more movement, dimension, and depth to the hair.
Red Tones Popular in 2024 Fall
Over the last years, we have seen golden copper tones and delicious pumpkin spice shades trending. This fall, deeper and darker red tones, from auburn to burgundy and plum, redefine the red hair color scene. When you want to achieve a stunning red hairstyle inspired by your favorite stars' hair color, going to a professional hairstylist is essential. Therefore, we invite you to make an appointment at our hair salon in Poway or Rancho Bernardo.
Our experienced and skillful hairstylists will safely perform the coloring process and combine the selected shades to achieve the desired look that complements your haircut and personal style. All hair colorists agree that dyed red hair requires regular touch-ups — depending on the red hues you choose — as it can fade quickly. Using high-quality hair care products such as sulfate-free shampoos, conditioners, and nourishing hair masks helps maintain the colors vibrant between visits to the hair salon.
This fall, there’s an even broader color palette of beautiful warm and deep shades to choose from for your Balayage or Ombre; here are our clients’ (but also celebs and A-list stars’) most popular choices:
- Soft Ginger Red
- Blood Orange Red
- Pumpkin Spice Red
- Cowboy Copper
- Cherry Coke Red
- Cinnamon Brown Red
- Cinnamon Copper Red
- Rustic Mahogany Red
- Ruby Burgundy Red
