Berry Red

This is a red shade that falls under the berry family. It’s not as orange or warm as copper, but it’s not as blue-toned as violet either. Berry reds are more of an in-between color that doesn’t quite fit into any one category.

Berry colored hair can be fun to style and experiment with, because there are so many different options you can use to achieve this look! You can go for a deep berry tone or go lighter and brighter if you prefer something bolder on your head rather than on your lips 🙂

Although this type of hair color isn’t necessarily associated with any one celebrity, some stars do have berry inspired strands (like Selena Gomez). If you’re looking at dyeing yours this shade then we suggest trying out our favorite products: Loreal Paris Colourista Semi Permanent Hair Color in Wild Berry or Garnier Fructis Color Crème Gloss Treatment in Violet Vibes

Copper

Copper is a mix of red and orange tones. This color is very popular among women; it can be seen in everything from fashion to makeup. The copper hair color looks best on people who have fair skin and blue eyes, but it also works well with any hair type. Copper hair can be very bright and shimmery like the sun shining through autumn leaves, or it can take on more of an orange hue if you’re looking for something less intense.

Dark Red

Dark red hair is a dark and rich variation of red. It can be described as a deep reddish brown color, or a dark copper. Those with Dark Red hair may also have some brown undertones to their strands. The term “Dark Red” simply refers to the darker shade of red compared to lighter shades like Strawberry Blonde, Auburn or Mahogany Brown for example.

Dark Red hair is very popular among celebrities like Emma Stone, Connie Britton and Rooney Mara who all have beautiful examples of this interesting color type!

Light Red

A light red hair color will have pale or strawberry blond base tones with a pale yellow to orange undertone. It’s often the lightest in the front and darker in back. Darker versions of this hue are usually referred to as “ginger” or “copper,” while paler shades can go by names like champagne, fawn, or cinnamon. Light-red hair is most flattering on fair skin types; people with fair skin should wear cool tones like lilac or pale pink for contrast.
