2023 is a year of BIG change. With three outer planets changing zodiac signs as well as the moon’s north and south nodes, major shifts will occur in many of our lives—including our hair.

For a brief period this year Pluto, the most outer planet of transformation, moves into Aquarius for the first time since 1778, ushering in a big metamorphosis for humanity. Saturn, the planet of structure, moves into the water sign Pisces, encouraging us to commit to compassion and understanding. Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion will shimmy through both Aries and Taurus, bringing more opportunities for new starts and building something long-lasting. 

So with a pivotal year ahead of us, there’s no time like the present to embrace change and harness your inner powers with a custom hair color to match your celestial energy. Read on to discover our 2023 Colorscope: The Best Hair Colors Based On Your Zodiac Sign.
