Caramel Hair Color Ideas to Try in Your Next Makeover
Check out these chic ways to rock this warm, summery hue!
Caramel hair color is a shade of brown that has a golden, yellowish undertone. It is popular among Filipinas because it suits morenas and almost all other skin tones. It is a beautiful, rich, and vibrant hair color that is flattering for any skin tone. This hue comes in varying shades and intensity, so there’s certainly a caramel hair color for you.
You can get this color without bleaching your hair, so it’s a great choice if it’s your first time having your hair dyed, or if you simply want to protect your hair from extreme hair damage. However, do remember that coloring still causes damage, so make sure to give your hair an extra dose of TLC to protect it from dryness and damage while maintaining color vibrancy.
Don’t worry, though, because caramel hair color is pretty easy to maintain. And if you’re ready to get this hair color, check out these caramel hair color ideas for inspiration.
Caramel Hair Color Pegs for Pinays
1. Caramel Brown Hair Color

This shade consists of caramel mixed with a rich, brown base. And with it being a few shades lighter than your naturally dark hair, it gives you a fresh, new look sans the drastic change.
Editor’s tip: Keep your hair color fresh with a few spritzes of TRESemmé Root Touch-Up Spray (Dark Brown Color). It conceals roots and gray strands in seconds, leaving your hair color as good as new. It provides professional-quality, root-concealing color in between salon sessions.
2. Playground Highlights

Because of its golden undertones, caramel makes for a great color for your playground highlights. It blends seamlessly with your dark hair and gives it a natural-looking, sun-kissed glow.
Editor’s tip: Did you know that water is the main cause of hair color fading? When you get your hair dyed, use TRESemmé Pro-Color Series Color Radiance Shampoo. It has anti-fade technology, which works by creating a waterproof film around your strands to seal in and lock the color, so you get to enjoy your hair color for twice longer. This shampoo also has jojoba oil for added moisture and shine.
For best results, pair TRESemmé Pro-Color Series Color Radiance Shampoo with TRESemmé Pro-Color Series Color Radiance Conditioner.
3. Bright Caramel

This shade is teeming with golden and yellow undertones, resulting in a vibrant, medium brown hair color. Try this hue to liven up a short haircut.
