Bronze hair color adds an eye-catching sheen to natural brunettes while subtly brightening blond locks. Furthermore, it looks beautiful as part of an effortless balayage or highlights style. Warm skin tones complement golden bronze shades beautifully, but can clash with cool-toned blonde hues. Therefore, if your client sports an earthy or golden blonde shade that clashes with cool tones, try pairing it with rich browns like Koleston Perfect 8/03, Color Touch 7/7, or Shinefinity 06/73 to add depth.
1. Copper Bronze
Copper hair color is an eye-catching hue that’s great for cool skin tones. It complements brown tones like the mahogany hue on this brunette’s mane while also looking lovely when combined with rosy shades like this pink hue on this brunette’s locks. To find your ideal copper hue, use temporary or semi-permanent dye on strands close to your natural shade before testing a copper hue; for darker brown and black locks, it may first need lightening before trying something different like this copper hue!
If you want an understated copper look, consider opting for the balayage or color melt technique. It is an elegant way to highlight your hair while remaining easy to maintain; simply ask your stylist to create an ombre copper shade starting from your natural blonde at the roots and progressing to buttery yellow-gold at the ends for maximum impact! This look works beautifully on any length of blonde locks.
2. Golden Bronze
Golden bronze hair color can add depth and dimension to a brunette base or add dimension to lighter hues, perfect for clients not wanting to lighten all of their locks at once and stunning against olive skin tones.
For an understated bronze look, add face-framing highlights into your strands for added depth and dimension like Leah Allyannah did with her wavy and layered cut. Alter your look completely by adding in some bronze to your dark chocolate locks, creating an exciting yet natural shade that is further highlighted by wispy bangs and loose curls. This way, you’re bound to stand out!
Bryant recommends using a tinted conditioner infused with jojoba oil for regular touch-ups to maintain this shade of brown, as its maintenance requirements are considerably less than with platinum or platinum with blue highlights. Bryant suggests using tinted conditioner with this oil as it will protect strands while adding vibrancy between visits to their stylist.
3. Copper Midlights
Copper midlights offer an effortless way to add red without going all in. Their muffled hue highlights fair skin and light eyes while looking natural, rather than strikingly bright. Brunettes can also give this look a try by selecting a stylist experienced with balayage; this technique involves blending and layering. Balayage works particularly well on lighter colors like strawberry blonde since it prevents brassiness from emerging.
For optimal results with your new bronze look, be sure to use a sulfate-free conditioner and color-enhancing shampoo tailored specifically for your shade of hair – we suggest dpHue’s Color Boosting Deep Conditioning Mask ($35). Also, don’t forget heat protection spray as these will extend its longevity and ensure its optimal appearance!
4. Golden Copper
Golden copper hair color is a warm reddish-blonde hue with golden undertones that blends red and gold hues for an eye-catching finish. It creates a shimmering, light-bending effect, perfect for brightening complexions across different skin tones. Starting with dark shades of brown hair may require multiple color sessions before reaching golden copper perfection; to keep it vibrant and healthy-looking, use a toning gloss such as the L’Oreal Paris Le Color Gloss One Step In-Shower Toning Gloss Copper every week for the best results and radiant results!
