Ash Brown Hair

Sexy, sophisticated, elegant and chic. Brown hair colors are endless—from sandy brown to espresso, from golden brown to plum brown. Just take your pick.

This cool brown hue is having a moment—trend-spotters have dubbed it “mushroom brown.” It’s an earthy brown hair color that’s muted and understated—perfect if you want to keep your color application low-key. One tip—keep your ash brown ends trimmed because split ends aren’t a good look on this hair color.

Pro Tip: The secret to beautiful brown hair color is shine, but hot tools can dull and damage your hair. That’s why Matrix pros always recommend using a heat protection formula before blow drying or styling with thermal irons.
