Striking the perfect balance between vibrant hair color that enhances your complexion and ease of maintenance is no simple task, especially when the trend is as fashionable as Cowgirl copper.
Cowgirl Copper is an understated copper red shade, perfect for darker complexions. With warm brunette undertones combined with subtle copper tones, it reads less vibrant and fire-y than true copper shades and makes an excellent complement.
Versatility
Cowgirl copper hair color is an eye-catching shade, yet subdued enough for most skin tones. Combining copper with warm brown tones for a leathery effect that’s particularly flattering on brunettes. Rust and gold tones work as highlights or all-over hues when using balayage techniques that create soft sun-kissed looks.
This versatile trend allows you to tailor it to any length or style imaginable, from long, flowing locks to chic bob. For added drama, add face-framing highlights for extra emphasis on your best features.
However, it’s important to keep in mind that blonde shades tend to fade more rapidly than darker hues; thus necessitating more frequent touch ups and the use of color-preserving products like sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners and Redken’s EQ Gloss treatments. Furthermore, it is best to always wash with cold water instead of hot as heat causes cuticle swelling that speeds up fading faster.
Rust Tones
Cowgirl copper stands out among copper hues with its unique mix of desert sunset shades and rugged charm from worn leather boots. An autumnal hue, it perfectly represents western style while adding rustic glam–an ideal way to grab attention easily!
Copper tones make the ideal complement to every complexion, from blondes and redheads to natural brunettes. Hillier stresses the importance of finding an optimal balance between copper intensity and muted finishes that don’t read as too loud or fiery.
Before attempting this shade–particularly those with dark hair–professionals advise toning and lightening to prevent muddying results and create an eye-catching yet wearable finish. As for maintenance, limited washing with color-preserving shampoo/conditioner should keep copper looking healthy and vibrant.
Blending Tones
Cowboy copper is an elegant blend of warm brown and copper tones for a natural-looking finish, echoing the leathery shades found on cowboy boots while flattering most skin tones. Unlike more vibrant red hues, which compete against golden and peach hues in your complexion, this shade enhances them rather than competing – perfect for first-time redheads and color chameleons seeking to explore a new hue without making an absolute commitment.
For optimal results, always perform a strand test and pre-color prep prior to coloring your hair with copper toners. Depending on the base shade of your natural locks, you may require additional lightening steps prior to applying copper toners; your stylist will be able to determine the appropriate tone based on your personal hair history and desired outcomes.
Maintain your fiery copper hue by using sulfate-free shampoo and weekly deep conditioner to avoid fading and brassiness.
