Your everyday glow-up shade.
It is common to find bronzer (and often three of them) in every makeup bag. People love the healthy, sun-kissed glow and sculpting effect on their cheeks. The same craving has moved to hair. Bronze hair color borrows that warmth and bottles it into a shade that feels rich and wearable.

Bronze hair can be described as a warm brunette color that is intermingled with caramel, red, and golden hues. It is a metallic shade with multifaceted shine, richer than golden and without the pink cast of rose gold. Depending on your natural color, your hairdresser might need to lift your hair to achieve the desired tone.
Bronze is an excellent transition shade to work with. Blondes who want to go darker find it a gentle step, and brunettes who want to lighten can put in bronze highlights without losing the richness. It is a flexible in-between option that can be customized even further.

Bronze hair is universally loved for the warm glimmer visible in both sun and lamplight. Its radiance doesn’t stop at the hair, spreading a glow across all complexions.
Warm bronze shades with hints of copper are best for warm undertones, while sandy bronze is the right choice for cool complexions.
Eye colors are also affected:

Bronze hair color rewards proper care with lasting luster.
The red pigments vanish faster; for a multitonal shade like bronze, it means that the color can become unbalanced if washed frequently and aggressively. Switch to shampoos and conditioners that protect the shade and are suitable for your hair type.
Hair dryers, flat irons, and hot rollers are notorious shade-faders. However, a good heat protectant allows you to style your hair without concern.
Metallic shades shine brightest on hydrated hair. Using weekly masks can be a solution for dryness and color loss.
Use a color-depositing mask or conditioner to keep the copper-bronze tones alive between your salon appointments.

Bronze highlights or balayage for brunettes are relatively easy to maintain compared to true blonde, and they also cause less damage. Blondes can slowly shift toward a darker root color without the noticeable lines. Previously color-treated hair may lose its pigment faster, so tone longevity depends on your color history and hair growth rate.
Although it’s not uncommon to see bronze color on sleek strands, waves, curls, or even slight bends will create more angles for the light to bounce off. Pair your new hair color with earthy or jewel shades in your wardrobe for a cohesive look.
