Red Hair colors

Written by Bronny   
Dear Bronny,

I'm a red head and love the color blue. But, everyone else says I look better in green! What colors would compliment my fair skin and my red hair?

Brittany

ANSWER

Dear Brittany,

Red hair is simply stunning! Lily Cole is one of the number one modals in the world at the moment and she has a marvellous shock of red hair.  My mother was also a redhead – of the auburn variety, simply beautiful.

So, colors for you! Well this all depends on how deep your hair is, is it strawberry blonde, Auburn like my mother or a bright fire engine red! Green will definitely look fabulous on your regardless of depth – especially if you have green eyes too. You could definitely wear blue – in fact as green and blue come from the same color wheel you could really go for any shade along that.

Here is a great little website I found that will go into a bit more detail for you and explain the different colors for different depths of red.

Have a look and see if you can see you! Til then, here’s a quick snapshot.

True Red, Auburn, Copper: Natural and eathy tones
Strawberry Blonde / Light Auburn: Spring colors, think of the flowers in the garden.
And of course – green as suggested by your friends and family is a definite, this color simply looks fab on any redhead.

Love
Bronny
