7 Sexy Brown Colored Highlights to Try
1. Honey Brown Highlights
A fantastic way to show off your layers, honey brown and toffee-toned highlights can help warm up neutral brunette bases easily. These highlights tend to look best on longer lengths, so try wearing your hair curly or wavy to showcase your fun multidimensional color.
2. Brown Multidimensional Highlights
If you wear your hair long with a middle part, it never hurts to add some caramel, mocha or honey brown highlights to your hair. However, if longer and straighter styles are a norm for you, you’ll want to add a good hair serum into your routine for styling and to help avoid breakage. For a serum that’s safe to use on color-treated hair, use the TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Serum that’ll help you to easily achieve a variety of sleek and sexy styles.
3. Subtle Highlights
Giving off a peek-a-boo finish, subtle highlights are ideal for the brunette who wants a more low-maintenance look. But even if your color requires fewer salon visits, it’s still important to care for your color properly at home. To keep your caramel or mocha highlights from going brassy, use Suave Moroccan Infusion Color Care Shampoo and the Suave Moroccan Infusion Color Care Conditioner to keep your color in good standing.
4. Caramel Brown Highlights
Looking sharp on long curls and waves, caramel brown colored highlights instantly gives mousey and lighter brunette bases a natural yet brightening pop of color. Whether you wear your hair short or long, you’ll definitely want your highlights to be the focus of your look. To show off your highlights, use the Suave Professionals Texturizing Sea Salt Spray to achieve a loose, undone look.
5. Berry Brown Highlights
Perfect for brunettes who tend to be on the darker side, adding in some warm brown neutral pieces helps perk up your complexion, while giving your base a beautiful berry effect. While this color looks divine on longer lengths, these highlights also look equally stunning on shorter lengths. To make sure your shorter cut accentuates your highlights, use the TRESemmé Make Waves Defining Cream to give your style some free-flowing texture.
6. Brown Ombre Highlights
Ombre is one look that doesn’t seem to go away anytime soon. However, the trick to achieving the style correctly comes with selecting the right highlights. It’s always best to go for a natural look, so be sure to add in some mahogany and blonde-brown highlights to get that seamless, cascading look.
7. Black Light Highlights
But if you want something moody and vampy, adding in some dramatic black highlights can take your brunette to the next level. To get this look, ask your colorist for darker highlights that defines your face. Want some more ideas for brown colored highlights? Check out our feature on why we love chestnut brown hair.
