Winter is the perfect time to switch things up with your hair color. The cooler months call for deeper, richer tones that add warmth to your look or icy hues that stand out against cozy layers. If you’re leaning towards dark shades, think espresso browns, deep plums, or even an inky black with a hint of blue for a bold finish. Prefer a lighter vibe? Frosty blondes, cool-toned balayage, or a silver-white melt can give you that striking, wintery glow.

The trick is choosing a shade that works with your undertones and ensures your color stays vibrant, even when the weather dries everything out. Pairing the right tone with nourishing products will keep your hair healthy and your color fresh. Ready to find your winter shade? Keep scrolling for all the inspiration you need!
