Are you trying out new hair colors? From Keke Palmer’s pinkish-red hue to Zendaya’s vibrant burgundy, some numerous styles and shades will suit your taste and make an impactful statement about who you are.
If you are considering dyeing your locks a vibrant shade, make sure that you hydrate thoroughly or use temporary dye to minimize damage and keep your strands moisturized for as much of the process as possible.
Reddish-Brown
Ladies looking for an exciting hair color change may wish to experiment with reddish-brown hues. This hue works great with most skin tones and especially suits blue-eyed women. Style this with a choppy layered cut and face-framing bangs for an eye-catching, trendy voluminous style.
Light complexions benefit significantly from a soft balayage of brown and reddish tones. K-pop megastar CL wears this technique flawlessly with her copper penny color with faded warm brown tints – an effect that perfectly complements her pale skin tone.
Spiced copper highlights add dimension and depth to medium-tan hair. Girl Wilde wears this hue from Nine Zero One Salon that works beautifully with her brown eyes and medium tan skin tone, as well as for blondes looking for an additional spark of fiery red in their look.
Natural Brown
Chocolate brown is an elegant hue that pairs beautifully with warm skin tones and green and blue eyes, as evidenced by Meghan Markle. She wears it like no one else.
Dark ash brown is ideal for those seeking a more relaxed look, as it boasts rich tones without reddish undertones – making it suitable for any complexion.
For something extra exciting to add some spice to your brown locks, why not experiment with light ombre or soft balayage techniques? For instance, cinnamon brown highlights look fantastic with medium skin tones and can really bring out the green in your eyes!
Blonde
Men in our poll found blonde women to be most desirable. Blondes offer lightening and brightening effects while showing off hair texture and style – perfect for any skin tone! Blonde can also provide those with naturally dark or red locks an edgier and chic appearance.
Strawberry blonde can be an attractive option for natural blonde shades, as its warm orange-red tones add depth and complement cool complexions beautifully. Furthermore, maintenance of this look requires only periodic glossing sessions for stunning results.
Dark chocolate locks exude luxury and sophistication, while caramel brown highlights can bring life and playfulness to your hairstyle. Ash-blonde offers another contemporary option that combines silver and grey hues for a trendy and modern aesthetic.
Black
Your imagination is the only limit when it comes to black hair color. One striking option is a shade that blends reddish-brown and blonde tones like Taraji P. Henson, or Janet Mock has done; the result creates an eye-catching look while remaining flattering for both women.
Another beautiful shade to experiment with is dark chestnut brown with warm undertones. This stunning hue looks natural on all skin tones and works beautifully with curly and straight locks.

Natural brown is an ever-popular shade that suits nearly every skin tone and eye color, from warm caramel hues to deeper mahogany brown hues with reddish undertones that flatter dark complexions, as well as eyes with green, hazel, or brown pigmentation.
Cherry red is an eye-catching color perfect for anyone seeking to stand out. It works exceptionally well with porcelain complexions and light eyes, yet still looks lovely against darker skin tones.
