The 28 Best Celebrity Red Hair Color to Show Your Stylist

Red is one of those hair colors that everyone wants but few can pull it off effectively (without lots of professional hair help, that is). It's hard to obtain, and it's hard to maintain—if you have dark hair, you may have to bleach it before you dye it red, for example—and it can easily become to brassy or lose its vibrancy. Auburn can also look strikingly different depending on how the light hits it (including in photographs), which means it can be tough to know exactly which color you need for your skin tone, eye color, and so on. Luckily for us all, we have some famous celebrity redheads who have perfected the hue over their careers (some of them are natural redheads and some are not, but they all rock the color well). We have some very subtle red shades all the way up to the brightest of cherry hues. If you need to get some inspiration on the exact color red that's perfect for you, you've come to the right place.

Here are some of the best examples of red hair on celebrities for you to show your hairstylist immediately.
