Brown Hair Dye Colors

So you’ve decided you want to try brunette hair color. But which at home hair dye should you choose? When shopping, you’ll want to pay attention to the shade. While it can seem like brown hair color is simple, there are actually many shades of brown hair. If you are looking for dark brown hair color, you’ll want to choose a corresponding hair dye. Dark brown, chocolate brown, or chestnut brown hair dye are all good options if you want deeply pigmented tresses. If you’re dreaming of light brown hair color, you’ll want to select hair dye in lighter shades. Light brown, ash brown, and even golden brown hair dye are good bets. And if you want something in the middle, why not choose a medium brown hair dye? Beyond these shades, there are also many mixed brown hair dyes to choose from. For example, if you want brown hair with some reddish highlights, you may want to try red brown hair dye.

Types Of Brown Hair Dye

There a few main types of brown hair dye for you to choose from. Permanent brown hair dye is the longest-lasting option. Permanent hair dye is the best choice if you are looking to go just a few shades lighter than your current hair color, since it typically contains bleach and is best suited to help you achieve your new look without the use of a separate bleaching kit. However, permanent hair dye can often be somewhat damaging to hair, and if you want to go more than two shades lighter, you'll still need to use a bleaching kit. Semi permanent brown hair dye lasts for a shorter period of time, usually around six weeks, and the color slowly fades over that period. Semi permanent hair dye is less potent, so you will most likely need to use a bleaching kit before applying the dye. Semi permanent brown hair dye will also need to be reapplied frequently, which could lead to damage. Finally, temporary hair dye is the shortest-lasting option of the bunch. Often used to add a few streaks of color for a special day, some brands of temporary hair dye can be removed in just a few washes. However, you’ll want to refer to the packaging to confirm how long you can expect your temporary hair color to last. When shopping, keep in mind that the right choice for you depends on your individual needs and preferences, including how long you plan to keep the color and how much upkeep you are comfortable with doing.

No matter which shade of brown hair dye you choose, it’s a good idea to do a strand test to make sure it works well on your individual hair. Select a small part of your hair that isn’t very noticeable, such as the underside or a piece that falls behind your ears. Follow the directions on the box to dye just that small area. If you like the results, you can move onto dying your hair brunette! But if you don’t, this gives you the opportunity to adjust exposure time or choose a different shade that’s a better fit for you.
