Hair by The House of Blond
Before I took off to Greece, my hair was starting to weigh me down both literally and metaphorically. Anyone with fine hair knows that once your hair’s grown past a certain point, it really only looks good tucked into your jackets or tossed into a bun – worn loose, it literally drags your face down. Naturally, with a departure to a warm and muggy locale rapidly approaching and my Pinterest hair pinning obsession reaching worrisome levels, I knew I had to call up my girl Sarah of The House of Blond to do her signature magic on my tresses. Click through to read more about how she achieved one of fall’s hottest hair colour trends on my brunette locks and her tips for fine hair rehab!

First of all, let’s talk colour. I am so beyond obsessed with this version of sombré hair colour she achieved on me. If you’re not sure what sombré is, just think of it as a much more natural, subtle take on ombré. I wanted to go a bit darker with some warmth but didn’t want to lose that beachy quality that I can never fully let go of, and Sarah majorly delivered. I kind of always offer a loose collection of wants, desires and inspiration and she somehow always manages to give me exactly what I want (even if I wasn’t quite sure exactly what it was that I wanted).
If you’re thinking of updating for fall, I couldn’t recommend going the sombré route enough. It’s not such a stark difference from your summer look that it will produce a shock, but it will give that richness and depth that we all crave come fall/winter.
If you’ve been reading for awhile, you might remember Sarah & I collaborated on a 5 Styling Tips For Fine Hair post last spring. Well, this cut is definitely in keeping with all of those tips. I wanted some face-framing layers to play with (love these new effortlessly cool pieces that creep out when I toss my hair into a low bun or braid!) and otherwise, we kept things blunt – pretty much a must for fine hair. All my friends have been remarking about how much thicker and full my hair looks – for someone who can put all of their hair up with one bobby pin, that’s major.
I really was craving shorter with Greece around the corner – I mean, when it’s hot and you’re travelling, I honestly think there’s nothing worse than having to deal with stringy, sweaty long hair down your back and neck. Though I definitely don’t think of myself as a short hair girl anymore (I think my happy place is medium-long), I’m so happy Sarah was able to give me that shorter, healthier vibe before I took off. I could really tell in snaps like this one or this one how perfect this cut was – long enough to still feel like me but short enough to take the Greece heat perfectly.
If you’re in the market for a new stylist, I can’t recommend Sarah enough. I especially love that she’s all about hair health and she puts that philosophy to practice in every aspect of her service, from cut to colour. She’s honestly my hair guru. All her details are right here below – contact her and get your hair looking its best before holiday madness picks up!
