The 6 Best Hair Color Ideas for Fall 2020

Dark reds, chocolatey brown, and espresso with warm tones - you can't go wrong with these trending shades.

Similar to low-rise jeans creeping back into popularity, hair color trends can be cyclical-and fall 2020 is proving to be a prime example. Familiarity is key as we continue to self-isolate, with classic fall shades and natural hues acting as a comfort zone. "We're definitely making the switch to darker, richer tones for the fall this year," says hairstylist Andrew Fitzsimons. "We've all grown to accept more of our natural shades this year, so we'll be sticking to lower-maintenance colors for fall that are a bit closer to our natural shade and easy to maintain."

Fitzsimons says to think about darker, richer tones: dark reds, chocolatey brown, espresso with warm tones, caramel highlights, and toffee. These colors are warm and cozy, just how fall is intended to be. Scroll though to find some major hair inspo, courtesy of celebrities who've embraced our new favorite wintry shades.

Coffee

Brunette hair can be an incredible canvas for highlights, lowlights, and everything in between. But this year, make an all-over, cooler-toned coffee shade your new signature, like Angelina Jolie.

Swiss Tourist Sentenced to One Year in Prison for Insulting Bali's Sacred Day of Silence

An Indonesian court convicted twenty-six-year-old Luzian Andrin Zgraggen of blasphemy after he breached strict holiday restrictions and posted an explicit video from an empty beach.

An Indonesian court on the island of Bali has sentenced twenty-six-year-old Swiss national Luzian Andrin Zgraggen to one year in prison for publicly insulting Nyepi, the sacred Balinese Hindu Day of Silence.

The verdict follows Zgraggen's arrest in March after he recorded and published a social media video that violated island-wide religious restrictions and sparked widespread public outrage.

During Nyepi, Bali enforces strict, mandatory observances requiring residents and tourists alike to remain indoors, extinguish lights, cease travel, and refrain from loud noises or public activities.

The island's international airport suspends operations and commercial internet connectivity is largely restricted for twenty-four hours to maintain complete silence.

Zgraggen violated the curfew by walking onto a deserted beach, filming the empty surroundings, and sharing the footage online alongside captions containing expletives.

Presiding judges ruled that Zgraggen's deliberate breach and subsequent social media broadcast caused profound offense to the Balinese population and desecrated religious customs.

In court, Zgraggen expressed remorse and offered a public apology, testifying that he had failed to comprehend the scope and religious gravity of the annual holiday before violating the rules.

The prison sentence reflects an intensifying campaign by Indonesian authorities to enforce local laws and religious standards amid record post-pandemic tourism volumes.

While immigration officials have historically deported or briefly detained foreign visitors who violated local ordinances, local prosecutors have increasingly sought formal custodial sentences for deliberate acts of public blasphemy and disruptive behavior at cultural and religious sites across the province.
