I've Had the Same Hair Colour for Years, But This Glossy Shade Is Suddenly Tempting Me

Although I love investing in timeless wardrobe classics that I can wear all year round, something that I love to switch up at the start of a new season is my hair colour. Now, don't get me wrong, I usually just add some extra blonde highlights for the summer months (I've had the same base colour for years), but even that small change is enough to make me feel like a brand new person. However, if you are wanting a little bit of a bigger change, there are so many fun options out there.

As a beauty editor, I am currently obsessing over auburn shades. I feel like this rich, vibrant hair colour is only really talked about in the winter months, but I happen to think that it looks chic all year round. If you're blessed with natural auburn hair, then you already know just how warm and glossy this shade can look, but if you're not yet familiar, allow me to share with you some of my favourite auburn hair looks for the upcoming months...

What Colour is Auburn Hair?

I feel like people often get confused about what colour auburn actually is, but the best way to describe it is a mix between red and brown shades. The best bit about this hair colour is that you can customise it to suit your personal preference. So, whether you want something darker, lighter or somewhere in between, it's totally up to you.

Dua Lipa recently showed off her fiery auburn hair colour.

These red hair shades were trending in 2023, and they show no signs of slowing down this year. Not only is the trend all over social media, but celebs such as Dua Lipa have been seen sporting auburn hair on various occasions. Although it's definitely in style, this classic hair colour is so timeless that I guarantee you'll be wearing it for months to come.
