Seasonal Hair Transition

Going Lighter to Darker
by Yura shin

As the weather is changing from warm to cold, people tend to change their hair color to match the season. People go lighter during the spring and summer, and go dark during the fall and winter.

Since few years ago, the ombre trend has been becoming more and more popular. The ombre effect is when the top of your hair (towards the scalp) is dark, and as your hair goes down, it gets lighter and lighter.

With the ombre hair, people have been turning their ombre lighter where the tips of their hair are almost blonde. However, during the colder season, people have been dying their hair in a darker ombre effect where the tips are now a medium brown color.

But not all people have the ombre hair style. Some people just have regular hair dye, but are still going darker for the fall time. For example, I had light golden brown hair, but for the fall time, I dyed it completely black. Now, since the dye washed out a little bit, the black dye isn’t too harsh and is now just dark brown.

Dark Ash Brown, Dark Mahogany Brown, Dark Auburn, and Dark Golden Brown are all dark beautiful colors for this season.

Bun Fun


Bun Fun
by Yura Shin

Putting your hair into a bun is a perfect way to get your hair out of your face while looking cute. A bun is a really fast and easy updo to do when you’re running late to school or work. It is simply so easy, and looks good without looking like you put too much time into it.

There are many different types of buns like a donut/sock bun and a top knot . However, the sock bun is a perfect bun that doesn’t look too messy compared to other buns. A sock bun is a hairstyle that would still be appropriate for more formal events as well as casual outings.
Celebrities like Rihanna, Jessica Alba, Miley Cyrus, and Taylor Swift have been rocking buns, and you can too.

To recreate this look you will need: a brush/comb and a hair tie. A teasing comb, bobby pins, and hairspray is optional.

-Gather your hair and tie it in a ponytail in the location that us desires. (It can be a high bun, low bun, whatever floats your boat) For extra volume, tease the hair in the ponytail.

Top knot bun: Twist the ponytail and wrap it around in a circle.

Donut/ Sock bun:
Material: Sock/ donut bun
-Insert the donut into the ponytail.
-Wrap the ends of the ponytail around the donut and stick your thumb from underneath and through the top of the bun.
-Push your thumbs up into the donut and continue rotating the donut into your head.
-Style and bobby pin any flyaways if necessary.
