5. RED ROSE GOLD HAIR
Think of red rose gold hair as a step up from strawberry. If you’re not afraid of a bold pop of color, this red rose gold shade is sure to turn heads. Ask your colorist for an rose gold ombré that’s darker at the roots and gradually fades into pigmented pops of red rose gold color on the bottom. When making the switch to such a vibrant color, ask your stylist about using pH-Bonder on your hair. The add-on service can help keep your hair fibers strong and reduce breakage.
6. PEACH ROSE GOLD HAIR
Breathe some warmth into your haircolor with peach rose gold. Taking advantage of the gorgeous color if especially easy if your natural haircolor is on the lighter side.

10. LIGHT PINK ROSE GOLD HAIR
Sometimes making a statement with rose gold hair can be as easy as rocking a whisper of color. At your haircolor consultation, ask your stylist about using a balayage technique starting near the root for soft bursts of rose gold throughout the hair. Blasting hair with texturizing hairspray can also help give it a windswept effect helping haircolor shine through.
11. DIP-DYED ROSE GOLD HAIR
If you’re not ready for a full head of rose gold hair, asking your stylist to use a dip-dye technique to take the look for a test-drive. By dip-dyeing only the ends, there’s room for you to experiment without the commitment of going all-in with rose gold haircolor. To keep your rose gold ends looking as sleek as possible, try using a smoothing hair lotion on your hair prior to styling.
12. SUNSET ROSE GOLD HAIR
Liven up a traditional shade of red with rose gold and violet tones mixed throughout the hair. To bring this look to life, ask your colorist for darker roots on top that transition into a rose gold ombré. A rootier look will mean having slightly more flexibility when it comes to touch up appointments once your roots grow in. For sleek hair that can bounce off light beautifully to show off your sunset rose gold hair, use theDiamond Oil Glow Dry system. It’s ideal for achieving the smoothest blow dry possible.
13. BLUSH PINK ROSE GOLD HAIR
Millennial pink never looked so good in this blush rose gold haircoolor interpretation of the look.
