Chocolate cake hair is the beautiful trend you’re going to want this autumn

Chocolate cake hair is the stunning trend that you're going to want this autumn (and has us booking an appointment at the salon ASAP).

Even the name sounds delicious. Plus, it's perfect for brunettes who are hoping to go a little lighter with their 'do. It's one of the latest hair trends to take social media by storm, and we are absolutely adoring the snaps of the new trend. Colourist Liz Cook told Glamour how chocolate cake hair was all about deep and vibrant colours. She explained that it was about relying on balayage to emphasise the face and to add brightness to the deep tones. And while the trend first emerged earlier this year, we reckon it would be the perfect way to switch things up if you're thinking of changing your colouring this autumn. Cook advised anyone who is thinking of making the change to ask their stylist for a brunette shade that isn't too neutral. She continued:

"This means adding copper and red undertones to your color to give you the richness in tone. "Ask your stylist for balayage highlights framing your face and gradually getting bolder on your ends to bring out the tones."
