Subtle but definitely a statement style, the chocolate highlights that Freida has going on here, are giving us major hair goals. Choose a dirty brown, a shade different from your original hair colour and watch your mane transform.
3. Oozing ombre oomph

The ombre hair colour has been a popular choice for a while now, and this stunning one in particular is bound to get you tons of compliments. If you want to go super light, choose a dirty blonde for the middle section of your hair length and an out-and-out blonde for the ends. Doesn’t this look spectacular?
4. Ravishing in red

When Shilpa Shetty Kundra went the red way, many of us felt the urge to make a hair appointment right away to emulate her hair colour. So, it’s no wonder we couldn’t help but add her picture to this list. You can make this different by adding some light brown highlights as well, to make this one a winning look.
5. Dark drama

If you don’t want to experiment too much with your tresses, opt for a shade just one or two lighter than your brown hair and have your hairstylist add multiple streaks of it to your mane. This might be a tad bit understated, but it’s definitely a look to take inspiration from.
6. Sunkissed

Such pretty shades, aren’t they? A lovely mix of coffee, caramel and just a hint of auburn. If you’re bored of your dark brown hair, get this colour done – it isn’t too light, but striking nonetheless.

If you’re into the entire hair colour scene, you’ve definitely heard of the balayage technique. Here, any shade lighter than your base colour is applied free-hand onto the hair. This looks more natural and gives the hair a layered and lovely look. Give it a shot!
10. Enigmatic ends
