Experts agree: the "tone-on-tone" look will be everywhere this fall. The name refers to a twist on the ever-popular balayage technique on brunettes. It involves adding dimension with chestnut highlights on a rich chocolate base. "This tone-on-tone technique creates a soft variation of color while still drawing the focus to the warm-toned face frame," Castiglia says. "This color combination allows women to still have the look of balayage but a deeper variation of it."
Hong calls this "the perfect fall brunette hue," adding lightness to your typical flat brown color.
