If all this highlighting talk has you itching for an update, Pelusi suggests not giving up on the ombre trend just yet. "What's occurring now — as does with most trends — is a softened, refined version of the popular ombre highlight. Whether you're blonde, brunette, or even red, this is the highlight color trend that's hot for fall." Instead of the typical two-toned look, this season's ombre is about soft highlights strategically placed several inches away from the scalp that blend in softly.
To get the look, take in a pic of Kate Middleton or Rachel Bilson, and as Pelusi suggests, ask your stylist for soft highlights throughout the last few inches of your hair. "For the trend to truly work, this style works best on hair that hits at the shoulders or longer."
