Brunettes have plenty of color options to look forward to this
year. Highlights for brunettes are gearing up to become the most
important color trend. Check out the top ideas for highlights
for brunettes in Fall 2013 and the hairstyles that go with
them.
Red is the top choice for highlights on brunette thanks to the
excellent undertones and texture they bring to dark hair. They're
the most elegant option, but this year you can also experiment with
bolder choices, from purple to black.
Highlights for Brunettes Fall 2013
From blonde to red highlights, there are plenty of excellent
choices that could help you get a trendy look this year.
Bold highlights are getting more popular for brunettes and daring
looks are easy to create if you know what you want and have the
help of an experienced stylist to get the best results.
How to Choose the Best Highlights for Brunettes
If you're applying highlights on colored hair, you have plenty of
options, but when you want to add a bit of spice to your natural
hair color, don't go too far. Even if highlights for brunettes are
a trendy look for Fall 2013, you shouldn't go further than three
shades lighter from your natural hair color for a more down to
earth look.
Ash Brown is a great choice for many brunettes and it isn't
especially difficult to obtain with a few ash or beige blonde
highlights around the crown.
Panels of gold, especially in the front, can be a good look when
you're sporting a longer layered hairstyle. Bright blonde
highlights are a daring option in your 20s, but for 30+ women red
is the most obvious choice.
Choosing light auburn is the best way to go for a warm shade that
compliments a medium to fair skin tone. Stay away from it if you
have a pinkish skin tone as it can look too red for your
complexion.
Hairstyles with Highlights for Brunettes
Modern bobs can be easily improved with gentle highlights that add
a bit more texture and volume to the hair. However, the most
natural and sexy looking highlights on brunette are usually
reserved for longer hair, with layers and curls.
Regardless of the hairstyle you choose this year, make sure you
care for your highlights with a clear color gloss, that you should
apply every few months. Highlights for brunettes in Fall 2013
depend on shine to work best, so make sure to moisturize your hair
thoroughly to enhance your new look.
