1. Have realistic expectations.

While the rose gold hair color trend is currently all the rage, keep in mind that it’s not a one-size-fits-all situation. The shade of your natural hair color will play a big role in how the finished product looks, so having realistic expectations is key.

If you have light brown or dark blonde hair, then rose gold should be more orange than purple—but if you have red or dark brown locks, then expect to see more reddish tones coming through.

Another thing to consider when choosing a rose gold color is how often you plan on getting touch ups done because this shade fades quickly and can turn brassy over time (even with good products).

2. Let your hair dry naturally.

If you want to get the rose gold hair color right, use a cold iron. The hot iron will actually change the base of your hair color and cause it to shift in tone towards orange or red. If you want to use a cold iron, make sure that it is not used on wet hair! A heat-resistant product like Aquage Finishing Spray can be sprayed on damp hair before styling with your flat iron for extra protection from heat damage (and also makes styling easier).

3. Make sure you pick the right shade of red for your skin tone.

• Make sure you pick the right shade of red for your skin tone.

If you have a light complexion, do not choose an overly deep shade of red or it will make your face look sallow and washed out. On the other hand, if you have dark skin tones then avoid choosing a lighter hue as this will only make you look pale and washed out which is not very flattering either. Instead opt for a medium to deeper hue that flatters both types of skin tones.

Get the rose gold hair color and make it last!

• If you want your hair to last, use a red shade that matches your skin tone.
• Use a hair mask once a week or so.
• Clarifying shampoo is great for removing unwanted buildup from styling products and other things that could compromise the color quality of your rose gold locks. We recommend using it once every two weeks or so.
• Purple shampoos are also super helpful because they help counteract brassiness in blonde hair—which can happen when any type of warm tones are present in the formula and cause an orangey-yellow effect on brunettes (like yourself!).
• You should also use sulfate-free shampoo, which will keep all those copper pigments locked into place without drying out your strands like most conventional shampoos do! It’s important not to skip this step because stripping away the moisture from your locks will only make them more susceptible to damage when styling with heat tools down the road—and nobody wants their amazing rose gold dye job ruined by split ends!
