Who Suits Golden-Red Hair Colors?

Skin tone: The warmth of golden-red hair colors means they’re beautifully flattering on peachy or golden warm skin tones. If you have fair skin, opt for lighter shades like strawberry blonde or soft amber. If you have a medium to dark skin tone, choose deeper shades such as copper browns and gilded auburns.

Eye color: Red hair and green or hazel eyes make the most striking combination, as green and red sit opposite one another on the color wheel. You’ll also see a cool contrast when pairing blue eyes with copper hair, while golden-red tones will enhance the earthy warmth of brown eyes.

Commitment level: There are two things to consider when it comes to commitment. First, depending on your natural base, golden-reds can make regrowth more noticeable, meaning regular touch-ups may be needed to disguise natural blonde or brunette roots. Red hair colors are also prone to losing vibrancy, so before you take the plunge, make sure you have a good color maintenance regimen at home. From Sulfate-Free Shampoo to Shine Spray, is ideal, as it helps you maintain color vibrancy for up to 10 weeks.

Golden Strawberry Blonde: A red-tinted blonde, threaded with sunlit ribbons of gold. If your hair is already light, it’s the perfect ‘starter’ red, made glossy and gilded with a Redken ShadesEQ gloss.

Who it suits: Best for fair skin with warm or neutral undertones, especially with blue, green or hazel eyes.

Maintenance: Medium. Light roots can become noticeable, while the golden-red tones may need refreshing to maintain vibrancy.

Honey Copper Hair Color: A lighter take on copper hair, with honey golden undertones gleaming through. It’s the kind of radiant color L’Oreal Professional was virtually made for, giving hair a luminous glow.

Who it suits: Fair to medium skin with warm or neutral undertones, especially with hazel, green or brown eyes.

Maintenance: Medium. Copper tones can lose vibrancy quickly, so book in for regular color refreshes to help maintain warmth and shine.

Who it suits: Warm, peachy and golden skin tones, particularly with green, hazel or blue eyes.

Maintenance: Medium to high. Vibrant ginger shades can fade quickly and may need regular toning or color refreshes.

Dimensional Golden-Red Balayage: A lit-from-within, golden-red balayage that melts through the mid-lengths and ends of a brunette base.

Who it suits: Brunettes wanting to keep the depth of their natural base while embracing subtle golden-red tones.

Maintenance: Low, thanks to the darker root. You can keep your base natural, or softly enhance it, so your regrowth appears soft and seamless.
