I love the Wella T18 ash blonde color for summer (it’s fun!), but I like to go brunette for fall.

Blonde to Brown Hair at Home – DIY
There’s no need for you to buy a fancy hair dye to go from blonde to brown.
Simply buy the John Frieda Brilliant Brunette treatment. It lasts 2-3 weeks and is super easy to use (instructions below).

Choosing a Color to Go from Blonde to Brown
Many women end up unhappy with their hair color after using a hair dye at home. That's why I recommend the John Frieda color treatment instead of a hair dye!
If you are a blonde and insist on using a hair dye at home, I’d strongly recommend you use a slightly darker shade of blonde hair dye vs. a brown hair dye. You can always go even darker later.
Going just slightly darker will prevent you from regretting your decision!
Best Semi-Permanent Hair Dye – At Home DIY for Blonde to Brown
If you want a brown hair dye that will last longer, try a semi-permanent hair dye.
A semi-permanent hair dye will last about a month if you shampoo your hair every other day.
Temporary hair dyes are also easier on your hair.
The Clairol Natural Instincts semi-permanent hair dyes get pretty good reviews. The “8G Medium Golden Blonde – Sunflower” color seems to be liked the most among women.

As you can see in the pictures below, the John Frieda coloring treatment fades after about a week. I love how the color becomes a soft brown after a few washes.
