Chestnut hair color has always been in fashion; whether Soft Autumn or True Autumn. This luxurious hue heightens natural warmth while accentuating red and golden tones of Autumn palettes.
Cherry Chnut Brown offers a softer alternative to this year’s boldest red hues, providing a rich shade that combines classic deep chestnut with eye-catching cherry highlights. Lizzo provides serious brunette inspo with her smoky cinnamon waves while Mila Kunis’ auburn curls feature dimension chestnut tones for inspiration.
Chunky Blonde Highlights
No other feature brings out the beauty of dark brunette hair like chunky blonde highlights do. Their contrast between light and dark colors creates an eye-catching visual, not to mention they require minimum maintenance!
Make sure to discuss with your colorist how much lightness you would like; high-contrast strands may require additional touch ups. When selecting lighter highlights close to your natural hue, blend them with darker roots for an optimal result that grows out beautifully with no signs of regrowth.
Cherry Chestnut Brown
Cherry Brown is a rich, luxurious hue that blends rich brown shades with subdued red undertones to form the ideal gateway color option for brunettes looking to test out red hair trends without going too bold – as its colors won’t lean orange or become overly bright.
While boucle has dominated mood boards this year, 2024’s trendy new hue is wild cherry. This deep, rich shade borders between ember and copper for an alluring hue sure to turn heads.
Chestnut Brown Ombre
To give your brown locks an eye-catching twist, ask your stylist to create a chestnut brown ombre. This look offers a warm transition from darker roots to light ends that is great for growing out blonde locks or those who have naturally dark brown strands.
Try using a subtler shade like ash brown for an understated ombre effect or switch things up with caramel chestnut brown balayage strands for something warmer – either will make an excellent statement against warm skin tones!
Chestnut Auburn Highlights
Reddish brown shades that dominated this year remain trendy; for an easier and less drastic take on them, ask your colorist for chestnut auburn highlights instead. These will produce an eye-catching shade with red undertones that compliment warm skin tones beautifully.
Lizzo’s luxurious chestnut spirals are an exquisite way to showcase this eye-catching color trend. This color works on all hair types ranging from tight kinky coils to loose beachy waves.
Chestnut Lowlights
Chestnut tones can help soften their appearance for brunettes looking to soften their look, according to Bellemare. “Chestnut hues work well with various skin tones and are particularly complementing of eyes with warm hues such as hazel or green,” Bellemare suggests.
Chestnut lowlights are an effective way to add subtle dimension and bring out your natural beauty while elevating your style. Think of it as a more delicate approach to this year’s red hair trend.
Chestnut Money Piece
Money piece highlights are an ideal choice for brunettes looking to add warmth without making an all-over color change, creating a radiant glow across their complexion. Pair this look with regular deep conditioning treatments like GK Hair Deep Conditioner for smooth and shiny results.
Chestnut brown is an eye-catching warm hue ideal for people with medium to dark skin tones who wear warm-toned makeup. The rich reddish tones complement natural golden hues in warm skin tones for an attractive, seamless, cohesive appearance.
Chestnut Balayage
Chunky balayage can give brunettes the dimension and depth they desire with just a bit of freehand painting. Start with a dark chestnut base using Madison Reed’s Magnet(tm) Blondes Ultimate Powder 7 lightener before painting in honey-blonde babylights throughout for a radiant finish.
This warm, rich tone looks fantastic on many skin tones and in both short and long styles – as evidenced by celebrities like Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Daisy Edgar-Jones and Zendaya all wearing this look beautifully.
Chestnut Bronde Highlights
Brunettes looking for something warmer than blonde but don’t want to venture into red territory will find bronze chestnut brown an ideal hue. It adds depth and warmth while still looking natural – and brassiness or dullness won’t be an issue!
Lizzo’s textured copper spirals look beautiful against her complexion, while Storm Reid’s chestnut locks feature an irresistibly warm golden tint that compliments her complexion perfectly. Opt for lighter touches with chestnut bronde balayage as it’s easier to grow out than blunt highlights.
Chestnut Caramel
Golden Chestnut Brown provides a more subtle blend of red and gold hues, providing a sun-kissed effect suitable for warm or cool skin tones. Try pairing it with caramel Balayage for low maintenance results that complement all lengths, textures, and styles of hair.
Cherry Chestnut Brown can help ease your transition into red hair more subtly. This vibrant shade combines classic chestnut with vibrant cherry highlights for a balanced take on this year’s most popular color trend.
