Winter is right around the corner, so stylists, make sure you’re stocked up on all the trendiest hair colors for the season. And if you’re not exactly sure what those colors are, world renowned stylist Guy Tang (@guy_tang) is here to help you out.

According to Tang, this upcoming season will be full of deep reds, warm browns, and icy silvers. “For people that like to embrace the holiday season, they gravitate towards reds and warm browns,” he says. “Icy silver is reminiscent of the winter season which attracts people to this shade during this time.”

As the creator of the #mydentity haircare and color brand, Tang has all the perfect color products and recommendations to help you achieve the hottest colors for the colder months. Check out his formulas for each look below.

How to Maintain

When you grace your client with a gorgeous hair color for the winter season, obviously they’ll want it to last. To make your client’s color last as long as possible, Tang recommends using plenty of color protection, both in the chair and at home. At the very least, he says, a color protecting shampoo and conditioner like #MyConfidant are a must.

“A color depositing conditioner is great for some shades,” he adds. “The burgundy tone can be maintained with #MyRefresh Crimson Spell Conditioner. If you blow dry or use heat tools, a heat protectant product like #MyHero Collagen Shield Spray is essential to protect your color from heat.”
