Nothing beats red if you’re searching for an eye-catching hue to turn heads! This lively hue is on-trend and complements most skin tones beautifully.
Strawberry Lowlights
Alternatively, if you prefer subtle red hues on your natural blonde locks, ask your colorist for strawberry blonde highlights instead. This striking hue features refined copper and brown tones for an exquisite finished product.
Light strawberry blonde is an attractive halfway between red and blonde shades of hair color, offering the best of both worlds to suit nearly all skin tones and hair textures. Opting for the balayage technique will give your locks a natural, sun-kissed glow that lasts longer than foil highlights. Strawberry blonde balayage works particularly well on long locks or an angled bob.
If you need more time to be ready to commit to full strawberry blonde, take a more subtle approach with blonde and red ombre. This mid-length does begin with golden blonde roots before gradually transitioning into soft strawberry shades at the ends.
Aubergine
Brunettes may be reluctant to experiment with red hues, but doing so can actually add depth and vibrance to their cool brown shade. This balayage style features an array of cool red shades ranging from burgundy to eggplant and magenta over a chocolate brown base color – it adds depth!
This fiery tangerine copper hue offers another stunning take on the vibrant red hair color trend but isn’t as daring as other options. Perfect for those who want to experiment with darker red hues but want to avoid an approach!
Aubergine and marsala are exquisite hues that are versatile enough to stand alone or be used to highlight darker tones underneath. If you want to try darker tones, pair it with a patterned dress or use an ombre technique for subtler effects.
Ombre
Red hair colors range from coppery hues to strawberry blonde, but sometimes something bolder is necessary. A dark burgundy or ruby red ombre makes a striking statement in the autumn and winter months; though it fades faster than lighter hues would, its results must be noticed!
Another exciting ombre option is a warm auburn to golden blonde ombre blend, adding an unexpected red pop that contrasts nicely with natural brunettes’ skin tones. This color suits all hair textures but works particularly well on wavy or curly styles.
If you love the idea of vibrant red hair but are concerned about maintenance requirements, ask your stylist about this beautiful color melt! It features darker tones of red that still achieve bold effects while remaining more wear-resistant as it blends in with darkened locks.
Ruby
An exhilarating jewel tone that fades to natural golden copper makes an eye-catching statement on warm complexions. This gorgeous red hue exudes vibrancy and will have anyone feeling vixen-ready!
Imagine your locks as though your favorite red wine has stained them; this deep auburn-red shade will bring them to life!
If you’re tentative about going all-out with red shades, this rosy-red hue could be just what’s needed to ease you in gently into this bolder hue. Its less striking yet still bold appearance provides an easy way to look red without going overboard.
If your client wants a bold ruby hue but is still waiting for permanent dye, try this demi-permanent formula that delivers vibrant results while fading true-to-tone.
