Burgundy Hair Color: 15 Pretty Hairstyles and Color Ideas

1. Hint of Burgundy

Take a look, and then take an even closer look. This hair color marries all this season’s best color trends. A little bit of pumpkin spice, a bit of rose gold blonde and just a hint of burgundy. This mashup is the perfect combination for the edgy girl that wants to try everything out all at once.

2. Black to Wine

In the market for going from black hair to something totally new, but still you? Opt for a burgandy hair hue that suits your skin tone, as oftentimes going from black to blonde or a light brown color can be too drastic. Burgundy hues like crimson, wine or currant are all great options for the fall season.

3. Maroon

Turn your chic hairstyle into a vibrant look with some maroon. Ask your stylist for a single shade that stands out but also brings out your features. For a bolder look, pair up your new hair color with a fresh short haircut that works for the fall and winter seasons.

4. Auburn

If deep burgundy hair color ideas like crimson, wine and maroon are way too deep for you, opt for hues with orange undertones, like auburn. For darker skin tones, check out our handy guide to help you find the best auburn hue for deep skin tones.

5. Vibrant Red

When it comes to coloring your hair, never forget that you have options. Find ways to make your new hair color work for you. If you’re dying to try dark burgundy hair but are afraid it’s too dark for the features you’re trying to enhance, like your eyes, opt for a brighter red at the crown and darker burgundy tones towards the ends of your hair.

6. Golden Burgundy

Who says you can’t have a golden burgundy hue? If you’re looking for a cross between auburn and burgundy, this is a great option. We especially love this warm look for the summer season.

7. Brownish Burgundy

A beautiful mix of burgundy and deep brown hues. To get a look like this, ask your stylist for ribbons of brown to brighten up the dark burgundy hues.

8. Burgundy Roots

Brighten up your dark burgundy dye job with a bold and fiery red. This season it’s all about going lighter. Go for ombré or dip-dyed ends.

9. Bordeaux Waves

Like fine wine, a Bordeaux hair color gets better with time. Other than having a great hair care regimen, another way to keep your dye job looking fresh is to keep trying your hand at new hairstyles. Recreate this wavy look on long hair using a flat iron.

10. Burgundy and Violet

Mix and match colors within the same family. The look of this burgundy and violet blend is gorgeous without looking or feeling like it’s overpowering or overwhelming.

11. Burgundy with Light Brown Ombré

If you ever find yourself trying to figure out whether you should go blonde or red, do yourself a favor and pick both. You can have the best of both worlds. This light brown ombré on burgundy is a great example.

Rainbow hair is not a thing of the past just yet. Revamp your hairstyle this season with a fun take on the trend and mix by rocking burgundy highlights featuring hues of violets, burgundy and black.

How can you look at this hairstyle and not love the cut and the color? Talk about marrying two popular hair trends at once! This asymmetrical cut stands out with a pretty mix of red and burgundy hues.

14. Burgundy and Bright Red
