Red highlights and lowlights are an ideal choice for women looking to add some additional color and depth to their hair. Combined with an appropriate outfit, they can pop, creating an alluring and seductive appearance.
Strawberry Balayage
Strawberry balayage can add some eye-catching dimension to your natural red locks without entirely switching up your style.
Peek-a-boo
Peekaboo highlights are an effective way to add color without bleaching all your strands. Placed beneath the top layer, they show only when wearing your hair down, perfect for balancing out ombre effects or adding dimension to your locks.
Bright Pink Peekaboo Highlights
If you want a striking appearance, add bright pink peekaboo highlights to your platinum blonde locks for an eye-catching effect that will turn heads. This unique hair color style will set you apart from others.
Purple or Blue Peek-a-Boo Highlights
Add an eye-catching accent with purple or blue peek-a-boo highlights for added drama. These vibrant hues will create waves like those seen in mermaid tails that will turn heads – perfect for daring individuals who enjoy experimenting with their looks! This look makes an excellent statement about who you are as an individual.
Auburn
Auburn is an eye-catching hue perfect for women looking to stand out from the crowd with an air of class and sexiness. Actress Rumer Willis shows how this warm, coppery hue complements fair skin tones beautifully.
Strawberry Blonde Babylights
Add strawberry blonde baby lights for an understated take on this shade and blend seamlessly into your red base color for an everyday-appropriate look.
Cool Burgundy Lowlights
Add an earthy and alluring tone to your auburn or mahogany hair color by trying a cool burgundy lowlight, as Matrix celebrity stylist George Papanikolas recommends. He says this warm hue looks stunning on anyone, particularly brunettes with dark brown tones. A burgundy lowlight will create a stunning contrast between your auburn roots and cheekbones while drawing attention away from any flaws in your complexion and drawing out facial features like rosy cheeks. It will also create a beautiful contrast between red roots and cheekbones and give highlights an earthy and alluring tone that won’t go unnoticed by highlights alone!
Cherry
If you need more time to dive headfirst into red lipstick, try opting for a more subdued shade such as cherry. This shade offers subtle hints of red and blue with just a touch of purple for an unexpectedly flattering hue that works well with warm skin tones, and those with green or blue eyes.
Darker Red Hues
Opting for darker red hues like burgundy is another effective option, perfect for women who seek the spotlight. Its easy application makes burgundy an excellent shade for highlighting, as it won’t wash out as quickly.
Balayage Treatment
Ask your stylist for a balayage treatment if you need help styling dark red locks. This highlighting technique creates an organic and dynamic style.
Strawberry Blonde Highlights
Strawberry blonde is an elegant reddish shade worn by celebrities like Nicole Kidman, Sienna Miller, and Amy Adams. Highlights are an effective way to lighten and add dimension to your hair, whether they be subtle babylights throughout or focused on the front. Talk with your stylist about choosing either option.
Christina Hendricks’ Vibrant Hue
Christina Hendricks makes it look easy if you want an entire strawberry blonde look – her vibrant hue shines like never before, pairing perfectly with loose pigtails for an elegant appearance that will impress everyone you meet!
Copper or Bronze Tones
Copper or bronze tones pair beautifully with strawberry blonde to lighten and brighten strands for an eye-catching combination that makes an impressionful statement at any event or party. Copper/bronze tones add depth, dimension, and sophistication. They make an elegant combination ideal for nightclub appearances and formal affairs.
Sombre
Similar to ombre, this coloring technique allows clients to lighten their hair without completely bleaching it. The key is selecting colors that are lighter or darker than your client’s natural hue, and then communicating this information to their colorist so they can ensure a seamless transition with their chosen shade. This style looks fantastic on all lengths, but is especially impressive on longer or medium-length locks. Brunettes should select soft ash blonde or caramel brown hues that blend in seamlessly with their darker roots to avoid stark contrasts and avoid touching up their hearts as often. This low-maintenance trend looks fantastic all year round!
