Copper Hair Colour FAQ's
Why choose copper hair colour?
Usually clients opt for copper because they are looking for change. Copper is much more of a statement colour however it can and often looks very sophisticated. There are a variety of options when it comes to copper colour options; from light to dark, there are deep muted coppers to earthy hues that offer more vibrancy.
So why has copper become more popular? For one, copper is a great festive hair colour and copper works well with a variety of skin tones whether you have fair, medium, or deep skin, there’s a copper shade that will complement your natural colouring. For many women, copper is a way to make a bold statement without going for something too drastic. It’s a balance of trendy and timeless, edgy yet elegant.
What are the copper hair colour options?
When people think ‘copper’ most typically think of a block colour (also known as a tint), however there are other options if you chose to embrace copper:
Full Head Tint:
If you’re ready to fully transition from one colour to another in the form of copper then the full head tint is the way to go. The option of a tint involves applying one colour covering every strand of hair from root to ends with a single shade of colour, in this instance, copper. If you’re unsure what tints are, check this out.
Pros:
- If you want a noticeable colour change, you won’t get more noticeable than this!
- If you like copper colours, this will achieve the highest percentage of copper above any other options.
Copper Highlights:
Arguably the most popular choice amongst clients looking for a colour change, highlights offer greater versatility than tints.A toner following the application of highlights can revolutionise colour changes in a shorter timeframe whilst still enabling clients to be flexible on their colour choice without much upheaval. Copper highlights can be adjusted dependent upon your personal preference for subtlety, something more bold or in-between. These can work well with both blonde and brunette hair, adding warmth and depth to your look. One further options is highlights in the form of babylights which can look really powerful.
Pros:
- The upkeep is fair. It’s somewhere in the middle and considered reasonable Every 2-3 months on average would happily maintain your new colour choice.
- If you love coppers but want to get use to the colour change, it offers scope to revert back to a more traditional toner without much change in the form of a toner.
Copper Balayage:
For a softer appearance, balayage is a technique designed to apply lighter pieces to the mid and ends of hair enabling a more manageable hair colour. Similar to highlights, a copper balayage allows for a blended regrowth and the option to change the tone further down the line without the upheaval of needing to book a full balayage. Here’s everything you need to know about balayage.
Pros:
- The easiest to maintain hair colour from the above options.
- It’s softer than highlights and a tint and if you are eager to embrace subtlety and copper, balayage wins.
- Adds dimension and depth without needing full coverage.
How do you know if copper hair colour will work for you?
Most of us are understandably unfamiliar with colours, what compliments skin tones, eye colour and natural hair colour. If you’re unsure, your Stylist will be able to identify which hair colours can work for you to maximise your hair colour and style. Here are some considerations:
- Skin Tone: You can find the right shade to suit nearly any skin tone. Don’t be put off the colour and work with your stylist to find a shade that best compliments you. Whether it’s a deep autumnal shade or a fiery copper, whilst not every shade will necessarily work for every client, there is a shade out there for everyone.
- Commitment: This is important. Are you a regular salon-goer, or looking for the ‘here and now’ or considering something with little to no upkeep? Certain colour applications as outlined above require less/more commitment than others.
- Personal Style: Copper hair makes a statement, so if you’re looking for something more subdued, this might not be the best option. However, if you’re all about embracing bold, beautiful colour, copper could be perfect for you!
Conclusion
Whether you are looking for a substantial change or something that offers elegance, copper is one of the most eye-catching hair colours available to you. If you are looking for a change and want to embrace copper as your colour of choice you won’t be left short of options. With a sensible approach to caring for your copper hair colour, you can keep your copper colour looking beautiful for the foreseeable.
