36. Burgundy Bronde Balayage. Red can work as a color bridging rich wine shades with golden bronde hues, giving you the right balance of depth and lightness.
37. Glaring Copper with Strategic Highlights. We’ll say again — placement is what distinguishes a skillful balayage from a mediocre color job.
38. Shoulder-Length Red Locks with Contrasting Roots. Medium reds usually last quite well, but your color will need even fewer touch-ups with shadow roots included in the style.

48. Sparkly Red Gold Bob. This bob would be no better than just cute if it wasn’t for the blunt and deep fringe shining like red gold — it makes the style classy.
49. Auburn and Amber Melt for Long Locks. A long mane requires more effort to maintain dimension throughout the length, which is done here with auburn lowlights.
50. Sharp Bob with Blush and Shine. Straight and sleek strands are especially vulnerable to feeling flat, but this iridescent bob is pretty safe from that.
We are quite sure this collection has made you feel the urge to own red, but finding the right color palette is crucial for your idea to work. The best way would be to take an inspirational photo to your salon and talk about tailoring the look to your personality by a pro. Good luck!
