​Ginger is probably the most popular version of red hair. It can have medium or darker red-brown tones that can also make the hairstyle the most natural-looking kind of red. If you have ever been to the UK (or watched some British sitcom), you may have heard natural redheads being called gingers. Ginger looks best with fair skin, green or brown eyes, and delicate makeup.

​Bright copper red hair looks vivid and shiny. It can be a bit intense, which makes this hairstyle an exciting choice. Bright highlights mix well with darker copper tones, and will go well with peach or golden-toned skin and green or brown eyes.

Bright copper with deep red hair will lighten up your look and make you stand out in a crowd. Cinnamon or nutmeg eyeshadow will complete the look, going perfectly well with the bright copper hair color.

​Golden copper is as versatile as red hairstyles can get, and it can also go darker. It has a warm and spicy hue, blending golden blonde and bright red colors together. Many actresses, including Amy Adams and Jessica Chastain, wear this shade very nicely with warm peachy makeup. It will definitely work for porcelain, peach, golden or neutral skin tones, and blue, green, hazel or brown eyes.

Auburn style gives hair a beautiful, rich color – perfect for someone not ready for a bigger color change. It’s a rather subtle dark, and perhaps more sophisticated, shade of red that conveys boldness and elegance. It will work well with medium skin tone, with both warm and cool undertones.

Both dark and light eye colors will go well with auburn’s richness. Auburn hair will look perfect with some sparkly makeup accents like a dark glitter pomade or moondust eyeshadow.
