Colors for
red hair.

Natural red hair supplies a warm-looking feature, but it does not decide every color that suits your face. Red dye is not evidence of seasonal type.

A useful comparison

Try a warm clear coral beside a warm muted rust. Keep their depth similar to compare clarity before deciding between Spring and Autumn.

One trait does not establish a season. Change temperature, depth and clarity separately, and keep the combinations you enjoy.

Palettes to explore

Light Spring

Tiffany Blue#7AEED0
Very Light Brown#DAB894
Light Moss Green#94BC6E
Greyblue 2#65ADBE

Peach, pale aqua and tender greens bring color without adding heaviness. Keep the overall impression light and let warm details do the work.

True Spring

Dull Yellow#D2CC5D
Apricot#ED9F59
Melon 2#F2704D
Terracota#C7694A

Golden yellow, leaf green and clear coral work well as an easy starting point. Warmth matters more than being the lightest or brightest person in the room.

Bright Spring

Apple#83DC53
Desert#DBA94A
Orange Pink#F56649
Rusty Orange#D45E20

Bright coral, turquoise and crisp green make color feel deliberate. Try a distinct accent against a clean neutral rather than softening every shade.

Soft Autumn

Pale Rose#E7B1A7
Pinkish Grey 2#C7A29F
Green Grey#849577
Slate Green 3#687B66

Gentle olive, warm taupe and rose clay share a softened warmth. Choose colors with a little gray or brown in them, and let neighboring shades blend easily.

True Autumn

Pinkish Tan 2#E39B7D
Blue/green#16AA9F
Dirty Green#67832F
Muddy Green#5D7033

Rust, golden olive and warm teal give a wardrobe a generous earthy base. Warm browns work as useful anchors and keep the palette grounded.

Deep Autumn

Light Forest Green#489356
Pinkish Brown 2#9B605D
Cocoa 2#816143
Dark Olive Green#41511B

Espresso, dark olive and deep warm teal supply depth without the icy edge of Winter. Dark combinations can be rich while keeping their warmth.

Keep the whole picture

Hair dye, cosmetic coverage and the surrounding clothes can change the balance of a look. The palette examples give you distinct directions to test; they do not restrict people with a shared feature to one family.
