Rich brown hair colour: 5 Instagram favourites
Sun-kissed brown
Just because the seasons have changed doesn’t mean that you can’t take those summer vibes into autumn. Try working a medium-warm brown as a base tone, and using a few lighter shades (like caramel and copper) as highlights, to give it a wonderful sunkissed finish. Trust us, it’ll be like summer never ended! Credit: @jennybartsch

Not only will this shade help to brighten up your complexion, but it’s natural-looking finish means it can literally turn anyone into a beautiful brunette. Hair-hoorays all around!

Auburn
Is it a red? Is it a brown? No, it’s both! This rich hue is perfect for giving your tresses an awesome autumn colour treatment that’ll really brighten up your ‘do. Rock this shade alongside some big, bouncy curls and you’ll have a look that has tonnes of depth and dimension. Win! Credit: @smoinsta
Editor’s tip: To take this look up a notch, you might want to consider mixing in some warmer orange and red tones to tap into this season’s pumpkin spice hair trend. One pumpkin spice hair to go, please!
Dark mocha
If you already have dark hair, it can be easy to choose a brown hair colour that’s too light for your taste, without knowing the end result. But that’s where this sultry, dark mocha hue can step in and save the day. This rich, dark brown colour perfectly toes the line between warm and cool, meaning it’s the ideal shade for those with darker complexions that have yellow undertones. Pretty neat, right?

Barely black
As hair colours go, black can be particularly hard to pull off, regardless of your skin tone! But there is a simple hair solution: barely black. This hair colour is far more flattering because of its ultra-deep and rich finish, giving it depth and dimension to spare! So, when rocking this super dark brown hue, be prepared to turn more than a few heads. Credit: @cleale_com
