If you prefer natural hair colors, you can go for a slight mahogany tint on dark brown hair. A subtle tone looks really elegant and chic, and can noticeably enrich your base color.
This gorgeous hair color is crafted with the balayage technique on a dark brown base. The secret of this bombshell look is the cool plum undertone that suits virtually all complexions, from the palest to the darkest of skin tones.

This splendid combination of multi-toned highlights is accentuated with flowy waves. If you’re a determined redhead but are ready for a change from your usual red, consider switching to a warm russet palette; the more hues, the better.

Reddish-brown highlights may be your best choice if you want to enhance your natural shade with a bright, vibrant touch. Copper shades look absolutely stunning on long dark hair, with springy waves adding a chic, dramatic finish.

Dark, rich mahogany shade coupled with soft waves is all about elegance and style. To make your hair color look more interesting and create a more youthful appearance, you can add a few thin copper highlights. Pre-lightening saves the day if you have darker hair, helping achieve the desired brightness.

The brighter mid-length-to-tips ribbons are an awesome way to show off your bouncy, natural curls. If you aren’t ready to commit to an all-over color, you can opt for an ombre that allows for easy growing out. This is a great example of a striking curly ombre perfectly pairing bright red mahogany ends over an auburn base.

If you aren’t a fan of bright reds, a deeper shade with cool undertones is a decent way to embrace the mahogany hair color trend. However, remember that this particular tone is far from low-maintenance. To keep your perfect shade on the cooler side, you might need to reconsider your usual hair care routine. Using color-safe shampoos and protective products for heat styling should become your mantra.

The light red hue beautifully flatters a darker skin tone and the kinky texture of natural hair. Mahogany creates a totally different feeling on short curly hair, helping you achieve a bold and sassy look.

@haircolorkilla
This impressive fusion of dark hues is an optimal solution if you’re willing to add just a hint of color, without going too light or too bright. The mahogany streaks are distinctive enough to add some dimension, but still so subtle in their blending with the natural hair color.

Reminiscent of dark, bitter chocolate, these messy curls show off an elegant brunette color mix where the hues begin and where they blend so effortlessly. If you’re looking for something simple and sweet, these shades don’t need extra embellishments.

@modernsalon
Deep, rich, vibrant, playful… Need we say more? These are all the words that come to mind when this gorgeous head of hair walks through a crowd. Embracing the true meaning of mahogany, this look truly outdoes itself with a little bit of purple shading.

@modernsalon
Somewhere between overt and subtle, this color blend is gaining momentum for good reason – it’s unexpected, expressive, and full of attitude. It’s a fabulous choice for those who favor style with a pulse.

@modernsalon
This color is so deep, and it pairs beautifully with black. The curls accentuate the shiny dark cherry hue that takes on a glow and offers the desired dimension to very dark hair.

@rustsalon209
Things are definitely getting kicked up a notch with this color job, as we leave the brown behind to fully embrace our crimson roots. Literally starting with the roots, the red violet hues cascade gently into a truly mahogany shade worthy of all the admiration in the world.

@paigekimberly.hair
This look speaks to those who love unapologetic choices. With a fresh bob toned by a perfect mixture of purple and red with a hint of blue, you’ll be leaving the salon gorgeous and ready to break down every wall that stands in your way.

@amandasanti
This beautiful balayage is a perfect transition from dark to light within one color without going too crazy. Beginning with deep mahogany brown roots and flowing into a sweet chestnut is the perfect route to finding your favorite reddish brown look.

@susanastouch
Ready to cool down the scarlet shades and head for a softer violet tone? Even hinting towards a bit of silver, this color marries deep burgundy with muted plum undertones for a moody and dramatic effect. It’s a cooler take on red that catches light differently.

@angelgtz650
Shining with the glow of a fresh visit to the beauty salon, this mahogany hair color is truly unique. While upon first glance it may look like a classic chocolate tone, one may be surprised by the icy blue undertones that make the exquisite color even more intriguing.

@studio.mi
Reddish-brown elevates the long bob from a simple cut to a statement-making silhouette. Leaning more towards the auburn side of the red spectrum, this look is guaranteed to leave you feeling free to be yourself with a hint of upscale sophistication.

@herintoronto
This style is especially fitting for those in search of a hairstyle that is gentle, classic, and never out of style. Go with a light shade of mahogany if you are a fan of subdued shades that look flawless both blow-dried or air-dried.

@this_is_meganharris
This gentle dark red color isn’t as in-your-face as other reds, partially due to the brown base. The mixture of the two colors brings this look to its height, enhanced with soft, light locks that still satisfy the need for boldness.

@modernsalon
A typical mahogany usually refers to a reddish-brown tone, but you can throw the brown almost completely out with this wild look. This brazen look allows you to fully embrace a passionate crimson shade.

@sassafrassroothair
For those interested in making a bold statement with their hairstyle, this is an ideal look. This specific color is lustrous and vibrant, drawing out the purple aspects of the mahogany shade.

@guy_tang
A classic all-over mahogany color job, this look is spiced up with a few bold streaks of raspberry red that frame the face and set off the main color so beautifully. The very ends take on burgundy notes. Simply gorgeous!

@bossbritt_hair
Mahogany hair color is a perfect example of how effective nuances can be, as it covers the spectrum from blush to roar. Its deep, reddish-brown tone suits all skin types and elevates even the most casual of looks.
