The Colours Taking Over This Autumn & Winter
The Biggest Hair Colour Trends in Edinburgh, Created by Medusa’s Award-Winning Wella Colour Experts
Ready for a new hair colour? Autumn and winter are the perfect seasons to switch things up, whether you're drawn to a cool platinum blonde, glossy cherry cola, a rich red or something altogether more creative.
At Medusa, our award-winning hair colour experts in Edinburgh create bespoke colour using professional Wella hair colour, with every shade tailored to your hair, skin tone, style and how much maintenance you want to commit to.
If you're looking for inspiration for your next appointment, these are some of our favourite autumn and winter hair colour trends.
Icy Platinum Blonde
Cool, clean and striking, icy platinum blonde is a standout look for autumn and winter. Think bright blonde, pearly tones and a polished finish with no unwanted warmth.
Our Edinburgh blonde hair colour specialists can tailor the tone to suit your complexion while keeping hair condition front of mind.
Cherry Cola Hair
Deep brunette meets rich red in this glossy, high-shine colour trend.
Cherry cola combines chocolate, burgundy and dark cherry tones for a shade that looks beautifully dimensional in different light. Ask our hair colour experts in Edinburgh to create a version that works with your natural base.
Soft Pastel Hair Colours
Prefer something softer? Peach, baby pink, lilac and muted rose tones bring a lighter, more playful feel to autumn and winter hair.
Pastels can be worn all over or added through selected sections for a more subtle finish. Our creative hair colour specialists in Edinburgh can tailor the shade and placement to suit your style and starting colour.
Bold Red Hair Colours
From copper-red and ruby to crimson and deep wine, bold reds are made for the colder months.
Your Medusa colourist can adjust the warmth, depth and intensity to suit you, then recommend the right Wella colour care and hair treatments to help keep your red looking vibrant.
Old Money Blonde
Soft, expensive-looking blonde is still going strong. Old money blonde blends creamy highlights, subtle lowlights and natural-looking depth for a polished finish that feels effortless rather than overly highlighted.
Our colourists may use highlights, lowlights, balayage and toning to create a completely bespoke result.
Hidden Vivid Hair Colour
Love creative colour but don't want it on full display all the time?
Hidden vivid shades sit underneath the top layers of the hair, revealing flashes of pink, purple, blue, red or other bright tones as the hair moves or is styled.
It's a brilliant way to experiment with creative hair colour while keeping the overall look versatile.
Which Autumn Hair Colour Is Right for You?
The best hair colour trend is the one that works for your hair. Before making a major colour change, we'll consider your current colour, hair history, condition, skin tone, lifestyle and how often you realistically want to return to the salon.
For example, an icy platinum blonde will usually need more maintenance than a dimensional old money blonde, while vivid colours and reds may require professional colour care at home to maintain their intensity.
If you're not sure which direction to go in, book a hair colour consultation at Medusa. Bring your inspiration pictures and we'll help turn the ideas you love into a colour that works beautifully for you.
