Can we put a picture of Ariel here? Tumbling red waves are a mermaid must for those with long locks. Unsurprisingly, this look can work with any red shade. Channel your inner little mermaid with vibrant red hair or embrace the fall leaves with a natural auburn shade. Hair too short? Don’t panic. You can lengthen your locks instantly with a set of deep red hair extensions.
Celebrities with red hair? We LOVED Orange is the New Black’s Dascha Polanco’s long red tresses. For maximum impact, she opted for a sumptuous sangria shade which has our mouths watering.
Braided Red Hair Chic

Layers are in this season, and with this versatile cut your hair will look effortlessly cool and sexy. A signature Shag shows off textured, choppy layers that frame your face and add striking volume to your hair. They’re even better in a bold and brash red shade! You may be thinking 70s Rockstar, but with a bit of modern magic the shag can look stunningly chic, whatever hair type you have!
Check out Halsey rocking the Red Shag trend in 2021. The red messiness gives us major early 80s Fast Times skater babe vibes, and her punk rock attitude adds a grungy edge while maintaining a natural softness.
With new iterations popping up each year, it’s easy to see why beach waves never go out of style. Red is the new blonde this year, and the messy, effortless tresses go perfectly with your fiery locks. This year, waves will be ultra-casual. Think natural, sexy bed-head vibes that just scream you only woke up five minutes ago. If you’re looking to add a bit of length consider hair extensions, to give you that ideal lying-on-a-beach-in-mykonos-with-sea-salty-hair look.
Kardashian Hairstylist Jen Atkin explains the secret to mastering this timeless style "One of my favourite tips for creating a bend in it is the “clip trick.” After putting product in, just push the hair up so it creates a bubble, then clip it into place. Keep doing this all around the head, then blow-dry over it or let air dry to create indents in the hair."
Curls, coils and ringlets. Which one are you? Curly hair works beautifully with red locks. If your hair is naturally curly, take the plunge and dye those tresses. Deep, rich red shades are a must here, and shoulder length cuts boost the volume for maximum impact. If you want to experiment with colour, add lighter balayage tones amongst the curls.
2010 did it better. Maybe we’re living in the past, but we can’t help still dreaming of Rihanna’s statement curly red locks. Back in the day, the RnB diva herself styled a striking red afro with a subtle shag-esque fringe. If you share similar locks to Rhi Rhi, you’ll be sure to feel like the Only Girl in The World with this look.
Autumn is time for bold fashion choices, and a bob can certainly be daunting for some. If you’re feeling for less hair and more impact, try a short red bob. This look is guaranteed to turn heads, especially if you opt for vibrant red hair. Bobs also have the added benefit of being super low maintenance; just roll out of bed looking effortlessly fierce.
Short but sweet. At the 2018 Met Gala, Zendaya debuted her dangerously short red bob with a blunt front fringe in a delightfully autumnal copper hue. She paired her striking locks with Versace-designed head to toe silver armour, paying homage to the female warrior and patron saint of France. When looking at celebrities with red hair, few do it better.
Last but certainly not least: the infamous mullet. Far from the Bowie’s red stereotypical 80s mens hairdo; it’s hard not to love some of the trendy variations cropping up this year. Red hair babes absolutely SLAY this look, with bold colours complimenting this bold style perfectly. Red heads have claimed this controversial style with a vengeance, and the results are, well, AMAZING.
A modern refresh and tribute to Ziggy Stardust’s fiery red statement, Lady Gaga championed the red mullet in 2016 at the Grammys. Cut short and dyed a fiery ginger; this is one hairstyle that’ll have you singing Bowie songs on repeat daily.
