James Corbett Talks Hair Color Trends For a Fab Fall
Over the past 15 years, stylist James Corbett has not only amassed an impressive list of celebrity clients, but he's also trained with the best in the industry, including Beth Minardi, Warren Tricomi, and José Eber. Two years ago, he opened his own shop, the James Corbett Studio in New York, and now, he has some great ideas for fabulous hair color this season. You've already seen a few haircut trends for Fall, and now, it's all about perking your locks up with the right hues.
Hair Master Guido Says Matte is Back
Now, I don't know about you, but I've been obsessing about matte hair for a while now. Since seeing those first catwalk pics of Candyfloss hair, not to mention the polished dreadlocks trend – I've been trying to wean myself off the super-shiny look.
The man behind this trend is hairdresser Guido Palau.
Trend Alert: Big Hair
Playing with proportions is key in fashion this season. Not content with puff sleeves or ra ra skirts, designers have taken it to the max this autumn—just think of the Bernard Chandran dress Estelle wore at the MTV Europe Awards last week. If you want an inexpensive route to fashionista status volume is also all the rage as far as hair is concerned.
Hair How-To: Polished Dreadlocks
A little bit glamour, a little bit grunge – this season's matted hair texture takes inspiration from hippie dreadlock styles, and gives a fresh look to summer hair.
Think full-on dreadlocks at Etro, matte hair at Lanvin, or just lots of texture at Balmain and Preen.
Like with the candyfloss hair trend, this summer, the polished dreadlocks look is about working with the natural texture of the hair, as oppose to creating an overly fake, super shiny look.
Hair How-To: Fishtail Plaits
Plaits have certainly been weaving their way down the catwalk this season. From the pirate plaits at Jean Paul Gaultier, to a more pulled-out messy style as seen at Prada this summer and at Giles' Autumn Winter show. The trend shows no signs of unraveling — sorry, I couldn't resist!

Oscars Trend Alert: Loose Tendrils
After years of the updo reigning supreme at the Oscars, a lot of stars opted to loosen things up. By letting a few stray hairs fall near their faces, they made their hair modern and carefree. Even better, it's easy to recreate this look at home.
Trend Alert: Crimped Hair
In the wake of all the beauty chat about matte hair and polished dreadlocks, it's not surprising that the hair style of our school days is back – yes, crimping is the latest retro, 80s trend on the block, alongside scrunchies and head scarves.
Designers from Luella to Julien Macdonald, showed models sporting often oversize, big, crimped hair, for next season.
At Luella, the school-girl crimped hair was teamed with Goth Glam, dark punk makeup, for the coolest-girl-in-sixth-form vibe.
Trend Alert: 90's Beauty is Back
While we're basking in the tongue-in-cheek quirkiness of the 80's revival, (think scrunchies and big hair) the 90's renaissance is creeping up on us slowly but surely. Take The Wackness for example, or the recent comeback of 90's supermodels Linda Evangelista (the new face of Prada) and Claudia Schiffer who is fronting the Chanel campaign this season.
The Soft Goth look, which is essentially an 80's style, was revived in the 90's with bands like the Nine Inch Nails.
Trend Alert: Tight Celebrity Curls
At Madonna's directorial debut in New York this week, it seems that her recent hair style is becoming something of a trend. Despite the bad news that her marriage may be over, she sure looked beautiful. Both she and Lindsay Lohan showed off tight curls with middle parts.
