Step into a bright hue like this cherry coke shade of burgundy to look bolder and trendier! This color will give depth to your tresses and make your style more like a high fashion, which is an actual dream of all fashionistas!
Well, we hope you have found your favorite red wine tint with a cooler or warmer base that tastes and feels the best. Burgundy is flattering for practically all skin tones. You only need to carefully select your perfect shade.
Burgundy is a dark, red wine color actively used for hair dyeing in brunettes. Blondes and women with medium brown hair also resort to this noble hue in order to appear brighter. Even redheads may try some shades, like a more violety toned burgundy or a more spiced out cinnamon. Classic, vivid or old burgundy, maroon or oxblood… Which one to choose? Here are 50 shades of burgundy hair color to try this season for a bold and refreshing look.
@modernsalon
Those red velvet cupcakes you love to devour can now be channeled in your hair, and the results are just as delectable. You can use a hair color try on tool to visualize how a rich shade of burgundy red will look on you. Let the darker base blend out nicely in a pretty balayage effect. Can you say, “yummy?”
The rich burgundy hair color in balayage highlights shines and stuns. To make the quality of the color even more evident, add long low-maintenance layers that will keep your hair looking healthy and luxurious.
@amandageissler_
Displaying that burgundy purple hair you invested in is easier than you think. Give yourself a sleek, silky blowout and let the hair dye really shine. Just use a round or paddle brush and run it through a section of damp hair while following it with a blowdryer and defrizzing blowout creme.
@off7thsalon
Dark red violet locks are about as close to natural-looking hair as you’re going to get, without actually going natural. Try a shade that sports a subtle purple tinge that isn’t incredibly noticeable… until you stand in the sun. Then, watch the sparks fly.
@by_amaris
Purple hair often brings up images of fluorescent violet locks. Go another direction and try deep brunette with hints of violet hues instead. This look is great: the rich shade is versatile enough to take you from summer to fall seamlessly.
@hairidescent
You probably would like to make your dark hair stand out. Color it bright burgundy red, the shade you don’t see much these days. In half updos, your roots will be showing setting off the vivid lengths, gorgeous in subtle waves, shapely curls or straight strands.
@hairstyleman
The red brown hair color associated with cinnamon is what hair dreams are made of and it will truly make your long hairstyle one of a kind. Worn curly or straight and with a simple center part, it will look amazing.
@brit_bellasalonandboutique
Burgundy hair is a gorgeous color choice for brunettes. It also flatters every skin tone. A solid hair color is flawless in this case, but you may also play with subtle highlights or babylights.
@caroliiine_k
You can easily achieve burgundy hair by adding some red wine highlights to an espresso base. This creates a beautiful rich cherry hue that looks unbelievably striking when it catches the light.
@gohardhairdesigner
If you like your deep brunette hair and want just a hint of red wine hair dye in your locks, no need to commit to a solid burgundy hair color. Throw in some very subtle balayage highlights to make your mane dimensional and colored as opposed to neutral. This more subtle dye job looks fabulous all year round with practically any complexion and outfit color palette.
@studio16.jen
If you can’t choose between brown and red hair color, you can experiment with these two shades and go for the perfect burgundy brown hair color, which is absolutely amazing! It will look especially beautiful on hair that’s worn wavy. The waves will add depth and accentuate the dimension between the two colors.
@hairby.ashleypac
Maroon shade is a real catch for a true fashionista! Whether you use it as solid hair color or have your tresses highlighted with this hue, your hairstyle will help you stand out at any party! Feel free to pair your dark maroon hair with both a short bob and long loose waves.
@guy_tang
Spice up your black hair with a balayaged or highlighted style for a stunning blend of colors. The soft waves keep the overall look feminine and flirty.
@kristen_o_legalhair
Two-tone and slightly more alternative, this blend of black and burgundy provides a captivating contrast for brave, experimental individuals. To create a more synergized look between the two colors, opt for a balayage technique.
@makeupbyfrances
Burgundy color combined with a subtle violet is an unusual yet eye-catching combination everyone will admire. What a wonderful solution to create a fantasy touch for black hair!
@arina_beauty_salon
This magnetic wine shade will bring you many compliments wherever you go! Inspired by Merlot, this plum burgundy hue is made to draw attention to your style and appearance. Create these charming curls using a wand or a curling iron to bring more texture and dimension to your locks.
@thathairstylist_jimy
Another cool example of how aptly the rich shades of burgundy can be implemented in darker hair. The hypnotizing burgundy hue oozes a bold, edgy vibe, making your style sassier. An ideal shade for true connoisseurs of Bordeaux Clairet.
@isthatpat
A low-key burgundy style if you already have or want black hair with a twist, the purple tint is understated yet seriously chic. It usually takes more to the ends, giving your tresses a darker appearance at the roots that gradually becomes lighter as it flows to the bottom.
@thatprettyhair
Some girls shy away from the burgundy hue when picking hair dyes simply because they think of something gaudy. But dark red hair color can give a be very “calm,” and elegant vibe, like this gorgeous shade with perfectly placed cherry highlights.
@hailtothehair
Completely different to having brunette hair with burgundy highlights, the dark chocolate and dusty rose hues create a tasty combination that’s a treat for the eyes. Ask your hairdresser for subtle dusty rose highlights on dark brown hair for fun and quirky locks.
@aimee_cuts_and_dyes
For shoulder-length black hair, have your stylist insert deep burgundy highlights to make an otherwise simple hairstyle pop.
@emilyjewellhair
Looking for some bold shade to contrast well with your natural black hair and complement your fair skin tone? This burgundy red hair color is a perfect choice! Ask your hair colorist to add some trendy money-piece highlights to turn your black and burgundy hair into an ultimate stunner.
@msnataliejean
If you have to follow a strict dress code at work, try black, dark brown or maroon hair with subtle and quiet burgundy highlights that are noticeable and professional, but not distracting. Make sure to touch up your color with a darker hued direct dye to ensure richness.
@aliraehairstylist
There are some instances where burgundy and brown make for the ultimate power duo, and this is certainly one of them. Add some soft merlot tones to the ends, along with some defined curves using a curling iron, for the cutest wavy balayage effect.
@brittanynunan.hair
If you want to accentuate your femininity and passionate nature, try a rich mahogany hue like in the photo. It looks fabulous on the long curled locks! Don’t forget to use professional products for dyed hair to maintain the color and shine of your tresses.
@isthatpat
You can easily and quickly achieve subtle red purple ends just by applying the balayage approach to black hair. Softer and more natural-looking than an all-over color, this style epitomizes class and elegance while still being out of the ordinary.
@aimee_cuts_and_dyes
Love purple? Show off your medium length layered hair with your favorite plum shade. Worn straight or wavy, it’s a beautiful style you’ll love.
@natalies_hair_design
If you need a modern update for your brown burgundy hair, you can add touches of violet and blue to create the perfect maroon red wine balayage. This color choice looks particularly sensational if you naturally have dark hair and dark brown, green or hazel eyes.
@0marr_2017
While pastel, cotton-candy hair is all the rage right now, don’t underestimate the power of classy dark burgundy hair. When layered and styled to perfection, it is just as bold and just as eye-catching. So drop your pink hair dye and swap it for a crimson hue.
@lizzys_colorfulworld
Create a colorful contrast in your dark hair by choosing burgundy highlights. And to really show them off, pair them with a simple, sleek, straight style that lets the color do the talking (and this one’s saying “Berry beautiful!”).
@thescissorsammurai
Looking for a dramatic and pretty change to jazz up your black hair? The dark burgundy balayage solution takes the long hair from natural beauty to a show stopping head turner. Going to work? Wear it straight or in a low pony to show off the rich color. Heading out on a date? With lush voluminous curls, you’ll make a splendid first impression.
@camouflageandbalayage
If you’re a fan of burgundy brown hair shades, you’ll fall in love with this deep burgundy hair color at first sight! This flirty hue is perfect for warm and neutral skin tones and any hair texture. We recommend winding your strands to create full and bouncy tresses.
@isthatpat
Plum shades of burgundy are a perfect addition to the rich base color. They make your hair look flawless and glossy, especially if you use hair care products that add shine to your locks. Keep your dark roots and create a smooth transition from your natural shade to bolder burgundy hair colors using an ombre or balayage technique.
@hairgoeschels
Look closely at this burgundy hair color and you’ll see tiny hints of blonde peeking through. These babylights turn the burgundy shade on fire, and the choppy cut with varied lengths just lends to the flaming look.
@emmanuelkuthaus
The wine-inspired hair colors always look sexy and sophisticated, and this hue isn’t an exception. Use this shade to highlight your locks and add dimension to this look. Such crimson purple tones will look great on girls with a pale, olive, and warm skin tones.
@hairbymeganperez
The perfect example of burgundy brown hair, these luscious curls must have come from a bowl of chocolate and cherries used as a dye, and the result looks so good we want to taste.
@studio417salon
Get ready to receive dozens of questions about where you got this mesmerizing color, as this dark chocolate cherry coloring is a real stun! This hue is a great fit for most skin tones. Keep it sophisticated with a side part and loose, elegant waves.
@safiesalonspa
The burgundy hair with highlights is charming, unquestionably. If you happen to have a passion for bright red shades, you may adopt this idea for your new hair color. Note this vivid burgundy is gorgeous both as a solid color and balayage.
@josh.does.hair
Long, shiny, bouncy curls – this stunning mane was made even more striking with a deep mahogany shade. And the best part about burgundy shades like this one is that they’re professional enough for work, but unique enough for you to stand out.
@thehairnurse
Two colors in one, this dark mane was transformed into red brown hair with the magic touch of a talented stylist. The ombre effect makes it look as if her natural dark locks are melting in a magic red burgundy pool, and we want to dive in!
@kristen.lumiere
Burgundy hair looks very stylish with black clothes and accessories. Opt for solid classic dark brown tone with very subtle or even blonde highlights for your most vogue inspired looks.
@modernsalon
The perfect all-over burgundy color, these tresses have been tinted to create red brown hair that makes the ultimate style statement. The good news is that this shade looks distinctive whether you have short or long locks.
@kaoticcosmo
Burgundy blends with red maroon as well, same like port and claret with spices on a frosty winter day. This interesting coloristic idea is performed with the balayage technique, when the color is placed strategically on larger sections.
@modernsalon
Burgundy hair color looks stunning itself, but if you want to make it even more vibrant, ask your hair colorist to add subtle raspberry highlighting. Thin hair will look extremely voluminous with this dyeing, especially if you curl the ends of your strands, just like in the pic.
@akohairtrainer
If you like vibrant shades that still look natural, you’d love this sexy and passionate dark burgundy hair color. Burgundy pairs with either straight hair or beach locks and tighter curls, so you can experiment with your styling and create as many stylish looks as you want.
@sierrahtapleybeauty
If you’re new to burgundy locks, you can experiment initially with reddish brown hair. This can be achieved, for example, with a simple balayage through thin subtle ribbons of permanent oxidative color applied over your natural brunette color, without previous bleaching. It’s one of the best burgundy brown looks for beginners.
@lovelylauren03
Give your purple red hair a dreamy, ethereal edge by wearing it with jewel-toned highlights. The glistening strands of color will look positively enchanting and give “unicorn hair” a whole new meaning.
@hairbyalexsloan
Get playful with your hair color with maroon locks that pack a punch. The color is not quite red and not quite purple, but totally mesmerizing. Go ahead and try it and see if you aren’t drowning in compliments immediately.
@constancerobbins
Adding burgundy to your hair can be intimidating, but there can be a middle ground and this shade is it. The transition from deep chocolate at the roots to soft burgundy towards the ends is subtle, resulting in a burgundy brown shade that’s reminiscent of the two favorite things of the average girl: chocolate and wine.
@thescissorsammurai
Step into a bright hue like this cherry coke shade of burgundy to look bolder and trendier! This color will give depth to your tresses and make your style more like a high fashion, which is an actual dream of all fashionistas!

Red is the new black these days and luckily for you there's a perfect shade for everyone. Go for a quiet touch by adding eggplant or red velvet hues to suit your business professional attire. For a sexy and flirty appeal, you should consider hints of red wine and violet. If the goal is to introduce some fantasy and edge into your style, bright cherry or firetruck red will surely pack enough punch to leave a statement. Keep in mind that any red hue needs upkeep at home with the correct products to maintain color longevity.”
