Espresso-Colored Lowlights on a Brown Mane
@solotreartofbeauty
The espresso-colored lowlights on a brown mane are achieved with the hair contouring method. Stylist Tharwat Bou Diab from Dubai, UAE created this hair color.
Diab notes, “you should consider your age because not every color is suitable for all ages. Also, when coloring your hair, make sure the salon is using high-quality products. It’s important that the product lasts and the dye color doesn’t fade after several washes.”
Lowlights for Ash Brown Hair
@jeannasbeautybook
These lowlights for ash brown hair are definitely earthy, cool, and melted with some dimensional sun-kissed pieces. They were created by hairstylist Jeanna Casallo of Auburn, WA.
To create this hair color, Casallo did some heavy teasing to achieve the lowlight look while adding hand-painted pieces to give it a subtle glow.
“If you’re afraid to go for blonde hair, then this is a perfect happy medium color,” she notes. “It’s very lived-in, natural, and can be low-maintenance for both cut and color. I recommend using The Perfect Brunette shampoo and conditioner by Pravana to prolong the color.”
Dark Red Lowlights for Dark Brown Hair
@tonyazstyle
“I would describe this look as a light brown (level 5) with red/violet lowlights (level 6/7) on dark brown tresses. I used Wella Professional for the color and lowlights,” explains salon owner, stylist, and colorist Tonya Ziske of San Jacinto, CA.
Ziske tells us the best thing about this dark hair is that it’s not too long or too short. “It’s the perfect length to wear up or down and straight or curled.”
She adds, “this style and color are easy to maintain. It would be great for women who already have brown hair because they will only need to retouch the lowlights every few months.”
Caramel Brown Hair with Lowlights
@bystephanieborgelt
This is a bob with a slight angle, enhanced with a caramel brown hue and some lowlights. It was cut and colored by hairstylist Stephanie Borgelt of Brea, CA.
“If you’re a natural redhead (like the model in the photo) but want some light and darker balayage hidden pieces, just know that it would be a nice blend as it grows out,” says Borgelt.
Dark Caramel Lowlights for Medium Brown Hair Color
@karagenstyles
This medium brown hair features dark caramel lowlights on loose and tousled style. It was created by hairstylist Karagen Drennan of Little Rock, AR.
“The best thing about this kind of style is the ease of it,” notes Drennan. “The color is a low-maintenance natural look using the natural color as the base so it won’t have any new growth.”
She adds, “with the cut, she’ll be able to curl her hair and wear it for as many days as she wants between washes because, the looser the curls, the better.”
Deep Burgundy Lowlights for Cinnamon Brown Hair
@evelyn_transforms_hair
These are dark burgundy lowlights with root shadowing that branches off with golden copper balayage and a twist of raspberry ribbons! They were created by cosmetologist Evelyn Lynch of Chicago, IL.
“Understand that red can fade a little, and accept the warm dimension of colors,” says Lynch. “I would learn how to use the wand too as it will showcase the color better.”
Rose Brown Lowlights
@hairsoakedinbleach
This rose brown wavy lob with lowlights. was created by certified colorist Nikki Parsons of New Jersey.
“I love the fact that brunettes have a trendy rose gold option,” exclaims Parsons. “This is colorful enough to feel like your hair color is fun but also subtle enough for most workplaces.”
This deep brown color may not seem like it, but Parsons says it’s high-maintenance. “Expect to be seeing your stylist more than usual for glosses and upkeep, or let it fade out on its own and enjoy the different tones your hair will reflect as time goes on!”
She recommends Keracolor’s Rose Gold Conditioner for maintenance and notes, “prepare to wash your hair in cold water. I also recommend Living Proof’s Restore Line for heat and UV protection to prevent fading.”
Heat is the secret thief of color. Always support your hair color with products and guidelines recommended by your stylist!
Red-Violet Lowlights on Golden Brown Hair
@abstracthairartistry
These red-violet lowlights on golden brown hair were created by salon owner and stylist Chelsea Litchfield of Avondale, AZ.
She explains, “I was creative with the way I applied the lowlights. I didn’t saturate scalp to ends. I heavily saturated near the scalp and feathered the color out as I got to the mid-ends to maintain brightness through the ends.”
“This look would be perfect for women wanting to add dimension to their existing color,” she adds. “Lowlights are the perfect way to transition out of summer and into fall. It’s crazy that adding little bits of richness can make a big impact in making your color pop!”
