Hello, Autumn Spice! & Happy National #LoveYourRedHair Day

How could we not celebrate National Love Your Red Hair Day? After launching a whole campaign to show some love to the natural, unique beauty of red hair, today we’d like to make a special announcement - dedicated to all redheads out there, signed: with love, Cliphair.

November the 5th isn’t just a day to celebrate the ravishing allure of foxy-red hair, it’s an occasion to get to know the history and characteristics of natural ginger tresses a bit better. Most importantly, whether you are a redhead yourself or have a flaming-red-haired friend, this is an awesome day to embrace the redhead identity and everything that surrounds the lifestyle of a redhead.

Our mission, as always, was to create a campaign revolving around self-love, acceptance, confidence and empowerment for redheads all around the world. We have gathered a few redheads to ask them a few questions and developed a little surprise designed to fill one of the many gaps for redheads in the industry. 

1. Launching Our New Shade: Hello, Autumn Spice!

You spoke, we listened. We live in an era of change, and we understand the struggle behind finding your perfect match when it comes to the beauty industry. We as humans are constantly learning, evolving and changing - and when it comes to something so personal and unique such as beauty, there’s no such thing as “one size fits all”.

In the hair care business, hair extensions professionals are trying to keep up with the number of colours, textures and trends that we see popping up on social media and runways every day. Red hair has been mistreated a lot over time - it wasn’t too long ago that you could’ve been called “a witch” for being born with beautiful copper tresses - and even in the 21st century, the beauty industry is still struggling in providing an inclusive, empowering range of products for everyone out there. 

Thanks to our customers’ precious feedback, we went to our lab. And after a lot of tinkering, we brought our latest human hair extensions shade to life. To this day, this makes us the beauty company with the most inclusive red hair extensions range ever. 

As spooky season was coming to an end, we launched a poll - giving our readers the chance to choose a name for this shade. We received thousands of submissions, and after closing the poll we are now proud to announce: Autumn Spice is our new vibrant, lively, natural red shade.

4. Autumn Spice Hair Extensions: The Perfect Hairstyles

There are many ways that you can wear your red hair extensions, and this type of zesty and textured red shade works really well with curly hairstyles and waves, for example. Let’s see three hairstyles for red hair that will bring your new look to life like no one else!

Fluffy Plait

This simple, romantic hairstyle sees your hair plaited in a thick, sometimes even messy braid. It’s a timeless classic that has been seen on a lot of redheads in cinema and tv as well. Lately, braided hairstyles have made a huge comeback, as long hair is officially in. Celebrities and influencers alike are hopping on the hair extensions wagon not only to achieve bounce and volume in their mane, but to add a few extra essential inches to elevate their hairstyle! With this spicy, coppery red shade a messy, fluffy plait goes a long way.

Perfect for: square face shape, oval face shape

Curly Blowout

There’s something incredibly romantic, elegant, and expensive-looking in a perfectly crafted curly blowout. You can get tighter ringlets for a punkish effect, or softer curls and a side part for a vintage diva finish. Consider getting Hollywood waves too, for a special occasion where you want to wear your hair down.

Perfect for: diamond face shape, heart face shape, oval face shape

Half-Up, Half-Down

Artsy, chic and seemingly effortless: what’s not to love about a deliciously crafted half-up, half-down hairstyle? Over the years, the popularity of this hairstyle has skyrocketed turning this lowkey, stay-at-home look into a chic, popular option on and off carpet for celebrities and mere mortals alike. Paired with braiding, twists and sparkly hair accessories, this hairstyle is also a popular wedding choice! Did you know that you can give more volume and fluff to your half-up, half-down ‘do with clip-in hair extensions? 

Perfect for: oval face shape, round face shape

5. Autumn Spice Hair Colour: Trends

When you dye your hair red, be sure you know you’re signing up to a whole new lifestyle. Dramatically changing your hair colour can influence decisions about your makeup, clothing and yes - even hairstyles of course. When it comes to trends, it’s hard to know if they’re going to work out well on our hair, especially if we recently changed your hair colour, length and/or style. Luckily, there’s quite a few recent trends that will work wonders on sleek, luscious, red tresses.

Hollywood Waves

Not exactly a new trend, but this hairstyle has been seen on countless red carpets and fashion events - so, why not? This glamorous hairdo sees your hair crimped in glossy, soft waves. It’s a beautiful, timeless classic that has been trending in Hollywood and the celebrity showbiz for a long time - hence the name! With this natural, metallic shade of red, Hollywood waves will stand out and give a diva effect that is going to be hard to forget.

Hair Clips

Picture this: bright, funky coloured butterfly clips, in lovely contrast with the shiny canvas that is your red hair. Think of them as a cute accessory for your mini pigtails hairstyle, for a youthful and peppy look. Feeling classier than that? Then opt for a claw-clip hairstyle. If you’d like to know more, check out our blog: How To Put Your Hair Up In A Claw Clip.

Retro Blowout

Big, 90s bouncy blowouts have been all the rage lately, being one of the biggest trends on #hairtok that simply refuses to fade away. Think Farrah Fawcett, but with some extra zest. Do I have your attention? I mean, it’s not a coincidence that the biggest influence in this hairstyle’s comeback is a redhead. Grab your round brush and blow-dryer: we're travelling back in time!

6. Autumn Spice Hair Extensions: Who Can Wear It?

This is always the one million dollar question: technically, the answer I would love to always give is “everyone can wear whatever they want”. Which is true, to an extent.

Autumn Spice seems to be one of the few shades that can work with anyone’s undertone, probably because of its warm, bright and coppery tone. If you’re unsure, you can always do the “white top test” and find out if this is the right brunette hair extensions type for you. Click here to read more about how to choose a new hair color.
