“Cold Brew” Is the Prettiest New Hair-Color Trend for Brunettes

With August in full swing and back-to-school right around the bend, it couldn't be a better time to switch up your look. Some people prefer to swap out their summery peach and pink-toned lipsticks for plum and moody merlot, while others are all for getting a major hair makeover. If you're in the latter category, you're in luck as color and cut inspiration is making its way around the Interwebs and social media, tempting people to take the plunge before Labor Day.

Of the countless fall-centric hair colors to choose from, "cold brew" brown is one shade that stands out and has captured people's attention (likely because it's inspired by such a popular beverage). As reported by Popsugar, it was an Instagram post featuring a client with rich, multidimensional brown hair, done by colorist Kimberly Bonondona, that helped ignite the trend. Additionally, colorist Stephanie Brown created a cold brew look for an Elite Daily editor recently, so it's certainly seeing its way around the Web and social media.

Rev salon owner Eric Vaughn also took to Instagram to showcase his love for cold brew (the hair color, that is). "C O L D || B R E W @gabriellaofficial and I have a thing for @starbucks inspired hair color," he wrote next to an image of a client with deep mahogany strands.

To get more insight on the trend, Allure reached out to colorist Nikki Ferrara, who says she's a huge fan of the warm brunette shade. "This is great for people with dark hair that would love to dip their toes into being a redhead without too much of the commitment — or for women who still want warm tones in their medium brown hair," she explains. On the other hand, Ferrara says this might not be the hue for you if you hate any sign of brassiness or red in your hair.
