Scorpio season (October 23 – November 22) has arrived, and it isn’t asking for your opinion. Pluto is at the helm, and the cosmos are whispering that it’s time to shed the old you. This is your cosmic permission slip to go deeper, darker, and a little more mysterious, because Scorpio doesn’t do subtle. This season is about power, passion, and rebirth, so choose the shade that feels like a secret you’re not ready to tell, the one that makes people stop mid-scroll and wonder what changed. Not a touch-up. A transformation. Go all in.

The Best Hair Color for Your Zodiac Sign This Scorpio Season

Whether you’re a Scorpio who lives for the dark and the dramatic or you’re just here to be pulled into that Pluto-ruled intensity, we consulted the stars to find your perfect hair color match for every zodiac sign. The planets have been whispering, and this time? They brought the secrets and the transformation.

Aries

Scorpio season is asking you to get honest about what happens when you realize you’re not in control of the outcome and start living with that knowledge. With the sun in Scorpio shining a spotlight on intimacy, trust, and shared experiences, you’re realizing how to be truly vulnerable rather than continuing to beat around the bush. This season helps you start to see that being independent is one thing, but refusing to let anyone show up for you is another. When Mercury retrograde in Scorpio starts up on October 24, it’s important that you take your time with conversations around commitment, finances, and the things you usually keep to yourself. You don’t need to reveal everything to everyone all at once, but you do deserve relationships where honesty doesn’t feel like such a big risk.

Power Color: Caitlyn. A midnight blue that reminds you there is strength in what you choose to keep sacred, private, and wholly your own.. and what gets shared with someone special.

Taurus

You’re learning that relationships can look perfect on paper and still ask you to abandon yourself when they’re in motion. The Full Moon in your sign on October 26 illuminates your identity, your needs, and the parts of yourself you may have softened your edges in order to keep the peace. This isn’t about becoming difficult for the sake of it. It’s about recognizing where compromise has become self-abandonment. You’re allowed to want more from people or situations, change your mind, and not make yourself smaller just to accommodate someone else’s comfort or desires. Let this season’s Full Moon bring you back to the version of yourself who knew what they wanted before they started negotiating it away!

Power Color: Purple Madness. It doesn’t matter if other people think you’re “mad” for taking up space - do it anyways!

Gemini

Your everyday existence is revealing more about your emotional well-being than you might realize… With Venus retrograde moving back even further into Libra on October 25, your romance, pleasure, and creativity are all asking you to reconsider what actually makes you feel alive! Are you making time for the things you love, or have you turned any hobbies you had into side hustles? How about the people you’re seeing, has every date turned into an interview? Revisit the people, places, and creative things that make you feel like yourself without requiring you to be productive while you do them. Pleasure is not something you have to earn.

Power Color: Frosé. Flirt with life again! You don’t need every little thing to lead somewhere.

Cancer

Home is more than a place you retreat into when the world gets too loud. This is the time to treat it as the foundation from which you build everything else on top of. As Juno (the asteroid of longevity and marriage) enters Aquarius on October 23, your idea of what (and who) you’re committing to long-term becomes more clear. What would it mean to build a life with someone else without losing your sense of independence? This will be an important time for conversations about money, household responsibilities, and the invisible labor that’s needed to keep a relationship functioning. You don’t have to anticipate every need or quietly carry the entire emotional load either. Let the people around you show you what truly balanced partnership looks like when it’s in practice.

Power Color: Peach Prosecco. Bring warmth to the spaces and relationships where you’re learning to receive as much as you give.

Leo

Babe, you know how to make an impression, but Scorpio season is reminding you that the most important part of your life happens away from the audience. The Sun enters your fourth house and  turns your attention toward family, home, privacy, and the emotional foundations beneath your goals and accolades. You may feel ready to change your living space in some way, revisit an old family issue, or acknowledge a need you’ve been too busy to sit with. You can be proud of what you’re building publicly and still admit that something in your private life needs tending. You don’t have to turn every personal breakthrough into a success story before you allow yourself to sit with it and really *feel* it!

Power Color: Jinx. Create a private world of your own that feels as compelling as the one you share with everyone else.

Virgo

Not every thought deserves a full investigation, and not every conversation needs to end with you understanding exactly what went wrong. Mercury retrograde ends in Scorpio on November 13, bringing a turning point to the way you’re speaking and thinking about the world around you. If you’ve been re-reading old texts, struggling to find the right words, or realizing that your assumptions have been taking precedence over the facts, things will start to become more clear. Be open to changing your opinions and stances now. You don’t need to have the perfect response immediately. Sometimes the most intelligent thing you can do is listen and wait a little bit longer.

Power Color: Space Cowgirl. A fresh perspective can remind you that you’re allowed to exist and enjoy life, rather than fixing it.

Libra

Venus retrograde has been asking you to reconsider your relationships, not only with other people but with your finances and choices, too. Around October 25 when it dips into your sign, things will start to feel even more personal. Are you choosing what you genuinely love, or what you think will impress someone else? Are you investing in yourself because it feels good, or because you’re trying to become someone you think you should be? You don’t need to abandon yourself or your desires to be appreciated by everyone else. This season is all about redefining your relationship with yourself. So who are you, really?

Power Color: Phantom Green. You can be boldly yourself without needing anyone else’s approval.

Scorpio

Welcome to your season, babe! Happy birthday! With the Sun entering your sign on October 23, you’re stepping into a personal reset that asks you to pay attention to who you’re becoming, and not focusing so much on what you’re leaving behind. Mercury retrograde starts the next day, making this season less about rushing into some big reinvention and more about revisiting the stories you tell about yourself. You may be ready to change your appearance, redefine your boundaries, or finally admit that an old identity you were holding onto no longer fits. Remember: you don’t owe anyone a consistent version of yourself if you’re actively growing into someone new.

Power Color: Poison. The heat of a new chapter gives you permission to be seen before you have it all figured out.

Sagittarius

You’re usually more interested in the next best thing rather than the thing you’re dealing with. The New Moon in Scorpio on November 9 falls in your twelfth house, creating space for rest, closure, dreams, and the emotional material you’ve been too busy to acknowledge. This is a powerful moment to stop filling every quiet moment you have with plans, distractions, or another reason to keep moving. You don’t have to turn your healing into a story or explain everything to everyone else before you’ve had the time to sit with it. Some chapters just end quietly without too much fuss. Some answers arrive when you stop searching for them. Let yourself have a little bit of solo space before you decide what you’re off to do next.

Power Color: Electric Paradise. Slowing down doesn’t mean you’re losing your fire!

Capricorn

Your future is shaped by things outside of just you and your choices. As Jupiter in Leo opposes the North Node in Aquarius on November 12, the tension between worth and your values comes to light. This season is highlighting questions about your finances, intimacy, and what you’re willing to share in order to build something meaningful with another person. Notice where you’re equating security with doing everything on your own, or where a connection is asking you to clarify what belongs to you and what belongs to both of you. Interdependence doesn’t have to threaten your sense of self. The right relationships will actually strengthen it over time!

Power Color: Sorceress. trust your ability to navigate complex things without needing to control every moment.

Aquarius

You’re rethinking what commitment looks like when it leaves room for two people to keep evolving. With Juno entering your sign on October 23, partnership themes become more confronting, and this season is asking you to re-examine the promises you’ve made and the expectations you’ve been keeping on auto-pilot about who you’re supposed to be in your connections and relationships. You can want deep devotion without wanting to be micro-managed, and you can value your independence without being alone. Pay attention to the habits that genuinely reflect your beliefs rather than the ones you’ve accepted just because they seemed conventional or convenient. The goal isn’t to avoid commitment all together, it’s to say yes to commitments that are honestly what you want!

Power Color: Ritual. grounded, meaningful commitment is something you choose with intention, not something you stumble upon. 

Pisces

Your routines are asking for a big ol’ reality check. The Full Moon in Taurus on October 26 makes it easier to recognize which conversations, commitments, and habits are taking up more energy in your life than they deserve. You might need to have a practical conversation with someone that you’ve been postponing. Take a beat before opening your mouth. Re-think how you give every passing thought the power to change your mood. You will do best when you allow thoughts, logic, and intuition to all co-exist with each other rather than solely opting for one. You don’t have to solve your entire life this month. Instead, use Scorpio season to start focusing on what’s directly in front of you only. One step (or day) at a time, Pisces!

Power Color: Cosmic Sunshine. A little illumination to your everyday life helps you focus on what’s real, useful, and worth your attention!

Scorpio FAQ

What is Scorpio’s hair color?

There’s no single “official” Scorpio hair color, but this sign is associated with deep, dramatic shades that match its magnetic, mysterious personality: think inky blacks, dark burgundies, and moody jewel tones. Scorpio is ruled by Pluto (with a little help from Mars), so any color that feels intense, transformative, and a little bit secretive fits the vibe.

What is Scorpio’s power color?

Scorpio’s power color is deep red, no question. It’s the shade most tied to the sign’s fiery, passionate energy and everything Scorpio stands for: power, depth, and bold transformation. Black and dark burgundy also make the list as backup power colors, since they carry that same intense, enigmatic energy. When it comes to hair, translating this into rich garnet reds, wine-toned shades, midnight blacks, or deep violet is the easiest way to wear your power color every day.

Scorpio Season Called, Time to Transform Your Look

Once a year Scorpio season creeps in, and it’s basically the universe giving you the green light to go bold, go deep, and finally commit to the color you’ve been quietly obsessing over. Whether you’re drawn to dark, moody shades or ready to shed your old look entirely, this is your season to embrace the change and make it unforgettable.

Unique Orange Hair Color Placements for Fall 2026

It’s that time of year! The leaves are changing, fall decorations are coming out, and your Pinterest board is stacked with orange hair inspo. Whether you’re a veteran orange hair baddie or you’re curious about trying this delightful shade for the first time, keep reading for fresh new ways to rock Arctic Fox orange hair this Fall 2026.

Orange Hair Color Placement Ideas

Forget the basic all-over look. These unique orange hair color placements are made to help you stand out in a sea of fall hair, and they’re all totally doable at home with AF.

Striped Orange Hair

Horizontal striped hair was recently made famous by Olympian figure skater Alysa Liu, but we're giving it a twist with a pop of orange. 

Figure skater Alysa Liu, who won Olympic gold in February 2026, has worn her signature striped ‘halo hair’ since 2023, and we’re giving the look a twist with orange. Picture bold bands of AF’s Sunset Orange wrapping around your natural base. It's graphic, it's fearless, and it's guaranteed to start conversations.

How to get the look:

1. Use Diet Cola all over for a refreshed natural base.

2. Bleach a horizontal stripe pattern in your hair.

3. After rinsing out the bleach, apply Sunset Orange to the clean, dry, bleached sections of hair. FYI Sunset Orange will show best on pre-lightened hair (level 8+). On darker hair it gives a coppery tint.

4. Wait at least 30 minutes (or longer!) for the dye to saturate.

5. Rinse out the dye, dry, style, and get ready to turn heads!

Pro tips:

1. Do a patch test and a strand test on a small section of your hair before bleaching or dyeing to check for allergic reactions and so you know what to expect before going all in.

2. For full dramatic effect, create the stripe pattern around your whole head. Want something more subtle? Just take small sections instead.

3. You can make the stripes as thick or thin as you like, but we recommend going thicker for a cleaner, more impactful result.

Orange Chunky Highlights

Y2K is back and chunky highlights are leading the charge. This look is bold, nostalgic, and full of personality, pairing your natural tone with punchy orange for a style that's equal parts throwback and totally fresh. Bonus: those big sections make this one super manageable to DIY at home.

How to get the look:

1. Section out large chunks of hair going around the top of your head.

2. If needed, bleach every other large chunk to create a perfect base for your orange hair dye.

3. Wait no longer than 30 to 45 minutes to wash out the bleach.

4. Apply your chosen Arctic Fox orange hair color to the dried bleached sections. For the look pictured above, we used Sunset Orange on level 10 platinum blonde hair.

5. Wait at least 30 minutes (or longer!) for the dye to saturate.

6. Rinse out the dye, dry, style, and prepare for endless compliments!

Pro tips:

1. Do a patch test and a strand test on a small section of your hair before bleaching or dyeing to check for allergic reactions and so you know what to expect before going all in.

2. Rinse out one section of color at a time with cold water, applying conditioner to the rinsed section before moving on to the next, so the colors don't bleed together.

3. Hair clips are your best friend for achieving this style!

Orange Peek-a-boo Hair

@hairon_bp used Wrath and Sunset Orange

Subtle on the surface and secretly chaotic underneath, peek-a-boo color is the ultimate orange hair plot twist. Wear your hair down all day looking effortlessly natural, then throw it up into a bun or ponytail and reveal the pop of color hiding below. It's giving "surprise, I'm actually an icon!"

How to get the look:

1. Bleach a section of your hair near the nape of your neck.

2. Check the lightening progress every 5 minutes and rinse once you've reached your desired shade. To avoid damage while bleaching, do not exceed 45 minutes of processing time!

3. Apply your chosen Arctic Fox orange hair color to the bleached section on clean, dry hair.FYI Sunset Orange and Ginger Flare show best on pre-lightened hair (level 8+). On darker hair they still show up, just deeper: Sunset Orange gives a coppery tint and Ginger Flare a deep orange-red.

4. Wait at least 30 minutes.

5. Rinse your hair in cool water.

6. Dry, style, and get ready to turn heads with every hair flip!

Pro tip: 

1. Do a patch test and a strand test on a small section of your hair before bleaching or dyeing to check for allergic reactions and so you know what to expect before going all in.

Orange Hair Money Pieces

@ktscarvalho in Aurora Kiss (blue) with orange money pieces

Money pieces are the gateway to bold color. These face-framing strands of fiery orange catch the light every time you move, and they're perfect if you want major color impact without going full commitment. They're also a great way to test out a shade before dyeing your whole head. The best part? The color combo possibilities are endless! Rock your natural hair color with orange money pieces, or pair them with another bold shade to command the attention in the room.

How to get the look:

1. Decide if you want an orange base or orange money pieces (this changes everything).

2. Part out your face-framing pieces.

3. If needed, bleach your money pieces or the rest of your hair, depending on your decision for orange placement.

4. Apply your chosen Arctic Fox orange shade to clean, dry hair on your desired area.

5. Wait at least 30 to 45 minutes and rinse one side at a time in cool water.

6. Dry, style, and turn heads!

Pro tips:

1. Do a patch test and a strand test on a small section of your hair before bleaching or dyeing to check for allergic reactions and so you know what to expect before going all in.

2. Rinse out one section of color at a time with cold water, applying conditioner to the rinsed section before moving on to the next, so the colors don't bleed together.

Orange Hair Color Placement FAQ

Do I need to bleach my hair to get orange?"

For the brightest orange, yes. Sunset Orange and Ginger Flare show best on pre-lightened hair (level 8+). On darker hair they still show up, just deeper: Sunset Orange gives a coppery tint and Ginger Flare a deep orange-red. Not sure what to expect? Do a strand test on a hidden section first. It shows the real result on your own hair before you commit.

What are some creative orange hair color ideas?

Get creative with where you put the orange! Striped orange hair gives you a graphic, head-turning moment, chunky highlights bring the Y2K nostalgia, peek-a-boo color adds a hidden surprise, and money pieces frame your face with a flash of fire. You can also mix and match these placements to make a look that's totally yours.

What color pairs well with orange hair?

Orange plays well with so many shades! Your natural hair color is always a winning pairing, and it makes orange pop even more. If you want to go bolder, try pairing orange with warm neighbors like red or pink for a sunset-inspired vibe, or go for contrast with purple or blue for a look that really stands out.

What skin tones look good with orange hair?

Really, it's whatever makes you feel most confident! But depending on your undertones, certain hues of orange may complement your skin better than others. If you have warm undertones, you'll glow in practically any orange shade. If you have cooler undertones, your skin will shine when paired with orange hair colors that have red tones. And if you're neutral, you can rock pastel peach hair like nobody's business.

Halloween Hair Color FAQ

What are some good hair colors for Halloween?

Deep jewel tones like black, purple, red, and green are classic Halloween picks, but you can honestly rock whatever shade fits your mood and your costume this spooky season!

How do I dye my hair for Halloween?

Use a semi-permanent dye like Arctic Fox that’s easy to apply at home.

Here are the basics:

1. Shampoo your hair and dry it completely. Skip the conditioner.

2. Do a strand test first to see how the color will look on your hair.

3. Mix your color in a bowl, even if you’re using a single shade, and apply it evenly with a color brush.

4. Leave it on for 30+ minutes.

5. Rinse in cold water, keeping the color away from your face.

Because the color is semi-permanent, it fades gradually with washing, so you can go bold without a long-term commitment.

Will these colors show up on dark hair?

Arctic Fox works best on pre-lightened hair (level 8+), where you’ll get the most vibrant, true-to-bottle results. On darker hair, the color acts more like a subtle tint, and deeper, richer shades will show up better than pastels or lighter, brighter shades. Always do a strand test first so you know exactly how a color will look on your hair.

What are some good Halloween costumes for someone with colorful hair?

There are so many options! Try Jinx from Arcane for blue hair, Ramona Flowers for pink hair, the Mad Hatter for orange hair, or a witch for green hair.

Now you’ve got a full lineup of costume ideas for every shade of the rainbow, so all that’s left is picking your favorite and going for it. Hair is the detail that pulls the whole look together, and with semi-permanent color you can experiment without any long-term commitment.

Libra season is here (September 23 – October 22) and it's bringing that aesthetic, indecisive-but-in-the-best-way, is-this-shade-balanced-enough energy. The cosmos are inviting you to slow down and actually think about harmony like, does this hair color vibe with your whole energy? This is your official cosmic permission slip to be picky about aesthetics, strategic about balance, and completely committed to looking good, because Libra doesn't settle for mediocre vibes. Venus is steering the ship right now, and they're all about beauty, elegance, and picking the shade that feels like you. Libra energy is all about harmony and aesthetics, which means this is the season to choose the color that balances with your skin tone, your personal style, and your vision, not the one that just photographs well. Translation? The universe just told you it's okay to be selective, beauty-obsessed, and unapologetically committed to the perfect shade.

Aries Hair Color

@blairemartine in Aquamarine

Libra season is asking you to look directly at the people standing across from you and ask a not-so-Aries question… “are we actually good for each other?”. The Full Moon in your sign on September 26 lands in your 1st house, bringing attention to your identity, needs, and the goals. You may suddenly realize that something you once tolerated no longer fits into the life that you've grown into. No more abandoning yourself for other people’s approval! Instead, let your relationships adjust around your growth. The right people won't ask you to become smaller just to keep the peace.

Power Color: Aquamarine. Clearer waters, clearer choices, and clearer boundaries ahead!

Taurus Hair Color

@greebogirl in Cosmic Sunshine

Something about your relationship to commitment is getting real this season. Venus retrograde in Scorpio (your opposite sign) starts on October 3 bringing focus on partnerships and asking you to reconsider what you actually need from the people you give your heart, time, and loyalty to. An old relationship pattern might pop back up, or you may suddenly see a current connection without the rose-colored glasses on. Don't panic if you find yourself questioning something you thought was set in stone. You're not necessarily losing out on love, you're just learning the difference between true alignment and obsession or “doing things a certain way”. The people meant to last into your future should be able to accept the person you are becoming, not just the person they’ve known… Let yourself be multi-dimensional and the wrong ones will naturally shed away.

Power Color: Cosmic Sunshine. Stop dimming your light to make someone else’s feel brighter!

Gemini Hair Color

@jessltester in Cotton Candy Dreams

You are being asked to take your creative life more seriously, babe. The New Moon in Libra on October 10 activates your 5th house, opening a fresh chapter around pleasure, dating, creativity, visibility, and the things you do simply because they make you feel good! Somewhere along the way, fun started to become something you had to earn after answering every email and accomplishing every task on your to-do list. But that is absolutely not reality. Libra season is here as your reminder that your life needs a little excitement to stay interesting. Make the art. Go on the date. Wear the fun outfit. Start the project that might become something someday but without any expectation. You don't need to know where it leads to justify enjoying it now.

Power Color: Cotton Candy Dreams. Life can be more sweet than serious for you!

Cancer Hair Color

@queen_of_middleearth in Emerald Fortune and Transylvania

Your relationship with money is getting a total makeover this season! Mars enters Leo on September 27 and activates your 2nd house of wealth, income, resources, self-worth, and the deeply personal question of what you believe you're worth asking for or receiving. You may feel a sudden urge to make more money, enact different spending habits, negotiate for more, or finally stop underpricing yourself for things you've been doing effortlessly for years! Just watch the impulse to prove yourself through spending or over-working. You don't need to purchase a more expensive life to become more valuable to the people around you. Or at all. Now just focus on the inside job at hand… feeling confident and worthy!

Power Color: Emerald Fortune. Networth actually means something when it’s rooted in self-worth.

Leo Hair Color

@tabby.path in Electric Paradise

This season is personal, in the best possible way! The New Moon in Libra on October 10 activates your 3rd house of communication, ideas, friends, siblings, and neighbors. This is asking you to change the way you tell your own story to the world around you. There may be a conversation you've been beating around the bush about, or an idea you've been afraid to share with the world. Stop editing yourself down into nothingness. You don't need the perfect words before you allow yourself to speak! Your unique perspective is part of the point. Sometimes the life-changing thing someone shares isn’t the giant leap, it's just the act of finally sending the email, publishing the thought, or saying what they actually meant. Be that person that leaps this season.

Power Color: Electric Paradise. Your voice & presence should be impossible to ignore!

Virgo Hair Color

@itsiggyizzz in Frose

There is something you're ready to say that you've been trying very hard to bite your tongue about. But when Mercury enters Scorpio on September 30 and activates your 3rd house of communication, this will bring conversations up that cut through the polite version of the story. You may become much more direct about what you want, what you know, and what you are no longer willing to pretend doesn't bother you. This isn't an invitation to weaponize your honesty, it's an invitation to stop confusing being silent with keeping the peace. Say this “thing” kindly and honestly. Ask the uncomfortable question. Let someone misunderstand you if that's the price of telling your truth. Your clarity is worth more than your performance of seeming like everything is fine.

Power Color: Frosé. Being sweet doesn't have to mean being silent!

Libra Hair Color

@hairlinefracture.mi used Girls Night

Happy birthday, Libra babe! The New Moon in your sign on October 10 lands in your 1st house, making this one of your most personal resets of the year. You're being invited to reconsider who you're becoming when nobody else is watching. Not who you need to be to maintain relationships, career, public image, or some version of yourself you've already outgrown. You might feel an undeniable urge to change your appearance, your routines, or your goals. Let yourself evolve without issuing some big press release about it. You don't owe anyone consistency with a version of you that no longer feels like you anymore. You’re allowed to change, make other people confused, or take a leap of faith!

Power Color: Girls Night. Your next era will turn some heads.

Scorpio Hair Color

@highstyles_bystef used Iris Green

Talk about sudden change! Venus retrograde enters your sign on October 3 and lands directly in your 1st house, turning the mirror back at you. You’re usually the one seeing everyone else so clearly. But now it’s your turn to feel seen. This can bring a fascinating reassessment of attraction, confidence, or the way you’re perceiving yourself and other people. You may suddenly want different things. Don't rush to reinvent yourself just because you're uncomfortable with the old reflection. Let the process reveal what is authentic to you over time. Be more focused on enjoying the here and now rather than figuring out what’s ahead. That’s the real tea! The most magnetic thing you can do this season is stop trying to be magnetic. When you genuinely like who you are, everyone else will eventually get the memo.

Power Color: Iris Green. Life is more colorful when you are being uniquely you.

Sagittarius Hair Color

@vampyrie in Jinx

Your inner world is louder than usual, Sag. Pluto stations direct in Aquarius on October 15, activating your 3rd house of thoughts, friends, and community. A mental loop you've been living inside may suddenly become impossible to ignore. You might realize you've been rehearsing the same conversation over and over again for months. The unreliable narrator and opinions of other people are going to be the only things that hold you back from true happiness. This season is an invitation to change your life’s story from its source. You don't need to convince everyone around you that you've changed… You just need to stop speaking to yourself like someone you’re not proud of, or happy to become! Your longest and most important relationship is the one that you have with yourself, babe!

Power Color: Jinx. Your mind is powerful. Try to give it something healthy to obsess over!

Capricorn Hair Color

@rachel.b_cosmetology used Firelights

Your social life is undergoing quite the reconstruction! Venus retrograde begins in the sign of Scorpio on October 3 & shakes up your 11th house of friendships, community, and dreams, asking you to look closely at who you want to become in this next chapter. Someone may reappear, a friendship group dynamic might change, or you could wake up to the fact that you've been keeping connections with people you don’t resonate with anymore. That doesn't automatically make anyone the villain though… Sometimes people simply stop fitting into the life you're building. As you move onward and upward, not everyone can join you on the journey. Pay attention to who celebrates your accomplishments without making it about themselves. Your future needs community, support, and celebration. Not everyone has the capacity to show up in that way.

Power Color: Firelights. Choose the right people who focus on lighting you up!

Aquarius Hair Color

@bananamilkbby in Peach Prosecco

You are having a very real conversation with yourself about the decisions you’ve made. Pluto stations direct in your sign on October 15, ending it’s months-long retrograde period. This need to shift your identity is becoming more clear than ever before. This isn't necessarily about some dramatic external reinvention, although you may absolutely feel tempted to cut your hair, change your entire aesthetic, delete all your old photos, and announce a new era online. The deeper work here will be deciding which parts of your identity are genuinely yours and which were built around impressing other people. You don't need to explain your game plan to anyone else. Let yourself become confident in forging your own path forward, sans outside approval! Get a little high off of self-empowerment!

Power Color: Peach Prosecco. Let reinventing yourself feel buzzy and exciting this month!

Pisces Hair Color

@kittykatekem in Purple Madness

Your finances, life choices, and career path are all swinging in a new direction this Libra season. The Full Moon in Aries on September 26 makes you aware of what you’ve been willing to settle for and asking you if that’s truly how you want to proceed... Something around your finances or self-confidence will reach a moment of awakening… especially if you've been giving too much while asking for too little in return. You could realize that a situation isn't sustainable, or finally acknowledge that your talents deserve more tangible support. Don't mistake generosity for being endlessly available. Your resources matter, your time matters, and your energy is not an infinite public utility to everyone else. This season asks you to become more protective of what you've built without becoming fearful about what comes next! Don’t lose your light or your life force just for the sake of making everyone else happy.

Power Color: Purple Madness. Your value is never up for debate!

What is Libra's hair color?

There's no single "official" Libra hair color, but this sign tends to gravitate toward elegant, aesthetically-driven shades that match their refined personality: think soft warm blondes, rosy brunettes, and balanced pastels. Libra is ruled by Venus, so any color that feels beautiful and harmonizes with your complexion fits the vibe.

What is Libra's power color?

Libra's power color is pink, hands down. It's the color most tied to the sign's ruling planet, Venus, and it reflects everything Libra stands for: beauty, balance, and thoughtfully-chosen elegance. Light blue and rose gold also make the list as backup power colors, since they carry that same refined, harmoniously-balanced energy. When it comes to hair, translating this into soft rose-toned shades, dusty mauves, peachy blondes, or balanced jewel tones is the easiest way to wear your power color every day.

5 Trending Fall Hair Colors That'll Make You Look Forward to Sweater Season

Summer's pretty much over, and while we'll definitely miss those hot girl golden hour energy vibes, fall is calling. And you know what that means? It's time to refresh your look. Just like the leaves outside are switching it up with their golds, crimsons, and burnt oranges, your hair deserves a seasonal glow-up too. Whether you're thinking moody jewel tones or warm spiced shades, there's literally a fall hair moment for everyone. So let's talk about what's trending and how to make it happen.

5 TRENDING FALL SHADES

Finding your perfect fall shade is all about knowing what speaks to your vibe. Think about your current hair level, how much color intensity you want, and the overall mood you're channeling for the season. Are you giving dark academia? Warm and cozy? Mysterious forest witch? Once you know your energy, the perfect shade is waiting for you.

1. Blackberry Hair Color

Blackberry is the mysterious, moody shade we're all obsessed with right now. It's giving dark, rich, and absolutely enchanting, like the vibe of a cozy autumn night mixed with just a touch of magic. This deep purple-toned black became the fall favorite because it bridges that gap between going full dark and keeping a hint of color dimension. People are gravitating toward it because it works beautifully on a range of complexions, and it photographs like an absolute dream. It's also the perfect way to transition out of summer bright without losing your personality.

How to get the shade with Arctic Fox: Mix 90% Girls Night + 10% Transylvania for a level 10 platinum blonde base. If you're already rocking dark brunette hair, you can totally skip the bleach and just layer Purple AF on top for that gorgeous blackberry effect.

2. Cinnamon Spice Hair Color

If you want a fall color that actually pops, Cinnamon Spice is your answer. This is a deeper, copper-based orange that's way more sophisticated than your typical summer orange. It's got serious dimension and that rich, metallic copper undertone that catches light in the most gorgeous way. It became trending because people are craving that bold color moment without going full neon, and this shade delivers exactly that. It's moody, it's warm, and it feels expensive. This is the shade for anyone who wants to make a statement while still keeping that cozy fall energy.

How to get the shade with Arctic Fox: Blend 45% Ginger Flare + 45% Space Cowgirl + 10% Frosé to apply on a level 5 or 6. This combo creates that deeper copper-orange with just the right amount of complexity and richness.

3. Dark Cherry Cola Hair Color

Dark Cherry Cola is basically if your favorite drink had a hair color. It's that rich, wine-tinted burgundy with deep undertones that catches the light in the most gorgeous way. This shade blew up because it's moody without being scary, and it works beautifully on a range of hair levels. People are obsessed because it feels fancy and elevated, yet still totally wearable for everyday life. Plus, there's something about that deep red energy that just screams fall confidence.

4. Velvet Espresso Hair Color

Sometimes you want to go dark, but you still want it to feel special. Velvet Espresso is that rich, luxe dark brown with subtle undertones that make it way more interesting than your average brunette. We’ve seen a massive uptick in requests for this shade; it's trending because people are learning that dark hair can be just as bold and fashionable as bright hair, it's just a different kind of statement. This shade has major expensive-salon energy while still feeling like something you can maintain at home with the right products.

It's that warm, buttery blonde with honey undertones that looks expensive, sophisticated, and like you were just born with it.

People are switching to it because it feels fresh without being shocking, and it pairs perfectly with fall fashion.
