Our Fave Burgundy Hair Colors
1. Burgundy Brown Hair
With this hair color, burgundy is combined with a shade of brown. You can start with burgundy color at the top then let it seamlessly transition to brown tips.
Editor’s Tip: When you color your hair, fading is one of the biggest challenges you need to deal with. Use a shampoo that’s proven to prevent fading like TRESemmé Pro-Color Series Color Radiance Shampoo. Its color radiance booster creates a waterproof film that coats and binds to the hair fibers. This film protects the hair surface and locks the color inside each strand. The result? Colored hair that lasts up to twice longer!
To get the best result, pair TRESemmé Pro-Color Series Color Radiance Shampoo with TRESemmé Pro-Color Series Color Radiance Conditioner.
2. Cabernet
This burgundy hair color has the characteristics of its namesake wine. It’s dark and fruity, while also being bold and dense in its hues. You can showcase your cabernet hair by leaving it down or by putting it up in an inverted braid bun.
3. Merlot
It’s darker and deeper than cabernet but it’s just as chic. It also blends well with naturally dark hair, so you can wear merlot as highlights or you can leave your roots untouched while dyeing the rest of your hair with this burgundy color.
Editor’s tip: Coloring your hair can cause hair damage, especially when you do it often. Keep damage under control by using Dove Keratin Repair 1 Minute Serum Conditioner. It has keratin-infused serum capsules that go deep into your hair to repair damage from within. It leaves your hair recovered, beautiful, and resilient to future damage in just one minute.
4. Dark Garnet Hair with Bangs
This burgundy color has more tinges of red than brown and purplish hues. It adds warmth to your skin. To let this color frame your face, add wispy bangs. The result is a chic and relaxed look that you can wear even when working from home.
Editor’s tip: If you want to include a keratin-rich conditioner in your hair care routine, try Cream Silk Triple Keratin Rescue Ultimate Color Revive Ultra Conditioner. It helps keep your colored hair from getting dry and dull, thanks to its keratin essence. It also has keratin serum to revive damaged hair and keratin relaxers to tame frizz, leaving your colored hair beautiful.
5. Cordovan
Taking its name from the leather that sports similar dark, brownish hues, cordovan has distinct brunette tones to complement all skin tones. It seamlessly blends with naturally dark hair and gives it dimension sans the drastic change.
6. Bright Burgundy Color
This shade still has that dark red hue, but the overall color is relatively lighter compared with other burgundy shades. This is a great option if you lean towards vibrant hair colors rather than deep ones.
7. Claret
Toast to a rich, gorgeous burgundy color by wearing this shade on your hair. It’s a combination of deep red and deep purple hues. It gives your dark tresses depth and makes you look sophisticated and even high fashion.
8. Two-Toned Burgundy
Create a dramatic ‘do by coloring a section of your hair with deep burgundy and another one with a vibrant, red shade. The result is a monochromatic look that will turn heads wherever you go.
9. Burgundy Pink
Add tinges of magenta to burgundy, and you get this rich, red-violet hair color. Nail your new look by keeping your hair color vibrant and your tresses shiny.
10. Deep and Dark Purple
These subtle highlights blend seamlessly with your naturally dark hair color. But when light hits your hair, you’ll see how the combination of purple and black create a deep and sophisticated burgundy hair color.
