There are dozens of variations, from this warm, peachy version, to cooler, more metallic pinks to rose gold highlights and accent panels. So basically, there’s a rose gold hair for everyone to love!
Here’s another option that encompasses a wide range of choices. Technically a blonde/orange blend, the outcome can range from yellowy to the red orange color of a blood orange to a blushing peach version. They’re all spring-worthy and pretty, and most people can find a blend that flatters their skin tone. Since you would have to lighten your hair considerably if you’re starting out dark, these shades are best if you’re already blonde or at least fairly light.

Keep your face properly primped – with eyes, cheeks and lips on point--to avoid looking washed out!
Have you ever thought about dying your hair red? Maybe you were a redhead as a kid, or maybe you’ve always just loved red hair. Red is a high-impact hair color—it grabs attention immediately!

Burgundy hair color is a dark red violet shade that is dramatic and memorable. It suits people with complexions that are dark or olive-toned and looks striking with brown or icy blue eyes. Burgundy hair color is all the rage and the perfect coloring opportunity for natural brunettes to go a little deeper. If you’re worried about going all in, consider starting off with ombre in deeper red and purple tones.
Going grey takes a sexy twist with the emergence of the silver hair color trend. It’s been all over celebrity Instagram accounts, fashion week shows and now is your chance to take this icy plunge! Talk to your stylist about various shades of grey that are right for your complexion and hair coloring routine, as some coloring services will need to be frequently maintained.
Partnering naturally dark brown or black hair with shades of blue hair color is a daring way to do something different with your luscious locks. If your goal is a real head-turning style for your color-treated hair, try using two bright colors together, such as dark blue on top with light blue on the bottom. Consider blue hair colors that incorporate hues of pastels. Not for you? Try to incorporate ombre, underlights, or even color melting into the look!

What’s more, the maintenance is fairly minimal since most of the color action is in the middle and ends of the hair.
After many seasons of lightening their brown locks, many brunettes are exploring their dark sides. A rich, espresso base provides a striking counterpoint to most complexions, and a few balayage caramel highlights will keep the big picture looking lively and dimensional.
There was a time when you’d be screaming bloody murder if your hairdresser left this much darkness at your roots. But now people are paying extra for the trendy, shadow root look. After all, if it’s good enough for Katy Perry and Madonna, you’ll have what they’re having! The secret to this look is in the blending—the darker color must be feathered into the lighter shades to avoid any trace of a clumsy, harsh line.
Babylights are ultra-fine highlights, placed throughout the crown area and around the face. Balayage highlights are hand-painted onto the midsections and ends, creating a natural, sun-kissed effect. Combine the two and yowza! You up your hair color game from pretty, pretty good to downright dazzling. As in, you’ll positively glow. This is a small tweak that adds up to a huge difference.
You’re not usually the first to try the latest thing, but you do pride yourself on being in the game and having a pretty good handle on what’s new. These hair color ideas are happening right now, and will show you’re in the know.
