Though summer rays are still high in the sky, it’s time to predict the fall and winter hair trends we’ll see the most for this 2024 season. Celebrity Hair Stylist William Whatley, who is also known as the new Creative Education Director for Scruples Haircare, has provided his forecast on the newest hair color and style trends for the upcoming season. William is also debuting his newest color lines: Sunset Copper, Sunset Radiant Red, and a Hollywood Spotlight Blonde. These vibrant colors and styles will be a great way to spice up your wedding look, and match with the fall and winter aesthetic. Whatley shares with Southern Bride the upcoming hair trends:
Hair Colors
Sunset Radiant Red
When it comes to fall hair colors, William is certain red will be the defining color for the 2024 season. He says, “You will see the reds dominating fall and winter hues turning more into your maroons and your violet reds for a real sultry moody vibrancy.”


Sunset Copper
Following Sunset Radiant Red, Sunset Copper is a softer version of the vibrant red hair color. Favoring more on the caramel orange tones, this is a great shade to spice up your wedding look, while still keeping the lightness of summer vibes.


Hollywood Spotlight Blonde
Though summer rays will be replaced with fall winds, blondes can still have fun in the glamorous honey caramel of the Hollywood Spotlight Blonde. “Blondes are pure honey with color accenting the face frame,” William describes. “Although we’re bringing the vibrant summer blondes down to a real beautiful honey, caramelized overtones still bring that brightness to the face frame with a lighter accent.”


Hair Styles
Classic Bob
In terms of hair style predictions, William believes one of the biggest returning styles will be the classic bob with a twist — bangs. He predicts, “From shoulder length all the way up to chin length varying layers, but all have a fabulous fringe bang. To create that perfect framed face that also accentuates the eyes, add volume and texture or sleekness from the runways for fall and winter 2024 a lot of sleekness. I am seeing a lot of close to the head looks which translate to a bob.”
Pixie Cut
A bob’s shorter sister, the Pixie Cut is another classic style predicted to make its return in the fall and winter season. “This cut creates and accents beautiful cheekbones, almond eyes and slender jawline,” William says.
Voluminous Shag
For hair style trends with volume, William says the shag is “the best cut” for layering long hair, while keeping it flowing. “Like the bob, the shag has so many dimensions and trendy names but it’s just a variation of a perfectly executed shag,” William explains. “You can create volume without removing length. You can add a bang that flows into the sides seamlessly.”
