With a new season right around the corner, if you're anything like us, you might have an itch to give your hair a refresh.
September feels like the perfect time to switch up your look, and the first area for experimentation is typically our strands - whether that means opting for a daring cut from the list of 2025 hair trends, trying your hand at DIY highlights, or trialling a new hair colour.
Speaking of the latter, Susanna Reid has just appeared on our television screens sporting a major hair transformation, which has only further encouraged us to book an appointment with our hairdresser (and buy a bottle of the best purple shampoo).
Why we're taking notes on Susanna Reid's hair transformation for autumn
After taking a short summer break from ITV's Good Morning Britain, Susanna Reid made a reappearance on the breakfast show on Monday, 1st September, debuting a brand new hairdo. The unexpected transformation saw Reid wave goodbye to her brunette bobbed tresses, instead showing off creamy blonde balayaged strands.
Reminiscent of last autumn's popular teddy blonde hue, Reid's brunette locks have had a brighter makeover during the summer, with blonde highlights running throughout, completed by lighter, money-piece effect strands that frame her face. In fact, the look in question is perfect for those seeking inspiration to switch up their strands ahead of the cooler months.
As for how the presenter styled her new tresses, Susanna paired her classic middle parting with effortlessly bouncy curls, which was the perfect way to showcase the soft blonde hues of her hair. In fact, the brightness of her strands allowed her vibrant cobalt blue dress and pink lip to pop even further.
