Short Burgundy Red Haircut
@hair.by.hai
This short burgundy red haircut was created by stylist Hailey Mikesell of Ohio. “If you are looking for a popping short red hairstyle, give Davines’ burgundy red hair dye a try,” says Mikesell.
She goes on to explain that maintenance is everything. “Although reds tend to be the hardest color to get out, they’re also the hardest to keep in,” she adds. “Wear a hat in the sun, use the correct at-home products, and come frequently enough for color upkeep!”
If you’re spending a good amount of money on your short bob red hair at the salon, Mikesell states “don’t settle for the $8.99 sulfate-filled shampoo – that’s going to strip it!”
Red Asymmetrical Bob with Undercut
@tanyusha_younusova
Red asymmetrical bobs with undercuts are beneficial to women who have thick hair and no fear. Red hair always stands out above the crowd, as well as asymmetrical cuts. Not everyone has the time or patience, nor wants the maintenance of red hair or undercuts. So, adding all three attributes into one style is definitely a statement. This helps to provide less hair to maintain with the help of the undercut and the shorter side.
Short Red Hair for Girls
@hairbyjennyoines
Short, red hair for girls can be such a playful hairstyle. Short bobs need regular trims, and red colors need regular appointments to keep the vibrancy, but they’re worth it! Using a red or copper-pigmented shampoo at home helps with maintenance. It also helps to keep the color vibrant between appointments.

Dark Brown Hair with Red Highlights
@hairbystephaniep
Stylist Stephanie Pachla of Shelby Township, MI created this deep red graduated bob haircut with a slightly asymmetrical front.
“The color in the photo was achieved by doing a full highlight to beak up the previous color. This was done using a lightener that deposits red tones as it lifts. There’s also a deep red tint in order to add dimension,” explains Pachla.
For maintenance, Pachla advises you to make sure you carve out time in your schedule to maintain it. “Red color on dark brown hair can be tricky to keep fresh looking, so schedule a touch-up every 5-7 weeks and use a color-safe shampoo and conditioner in between. Dry shampoo is a great tool as well – the less you wash, the longer those vibrant reds stick around!”

Dark to Light Short Red Hair Ombre
@irina.tuga
This dark to light short red hair ombre was created by colorist Irina Tuga of Okemos, MI.
“The best thing about short red haircuts is the vibrant shades. The way the colors blend together form fiery short red locks. Plus, the ombre curls give it the attitude that says I’m here,” explains Tuga.
“You definitely have to be comfortable with a short red hairstyle, as it’s definitely going to get noticed,” she adds. “Short haircuts require 4-6 week maintenance in order to keep the neckline and shape nice and sharp. Washing your bright red hair as little as possible is ideal to prevent color fading.”
Use dry shampoo. Tuga says Aveda has a great dry shampoo that’s not only cruelty-free but it doesn’t have alcohol in it, therefore it won’t dry out your hair. “When you do shower it’s best to keep the water on the cooler side to avoid premature color fading,” she adds.
“Curled or straight, short hairstyles like this look great either way. In fact, if you wear it as straight red hair, it can be styled into a cute asymmetrical bob,” explains Tuga.
Bright Red Short Hair
@charleenhair
This bright red short hair is a hipster bob cut that looks “lived-in.” It was created by stylist Charleen Fair of Winnipeg, MB.
When washing, Fair suggests you try the Alterna Caviar line – color shampoo and conditioner.
“The color mix of coral and red really suits women who have a brighter personality,” says Fair. “There is maintenance for red hair colors like this, but with the proper shampoo and hair routine, you could re-gloss every 5 to 7 weeks.”
Dark Red Hair with Light Red Highlights and Choppy Layers
@jennyvernetti
Short red hair styles like this are considered a red shorter angled bob. “The selection of color really ties in and complements the choppy layers and red highlights, resulting in tousled red hair,” explains stylist Jenny Vernetti of Rockford, IL.
“Short red wavy bob hairstyles and haircuts like this are for women who don’t mind the upkeep and love this red color because red fades fast,” says Vernetti.
“This bob with red highlights is excellent for women who don’t want to spend a lot of time styling their hair, and it’s one of those short red hairstyles that when it’s messier, it’s better,” she adds.
Short Cinnamon Red Hair Color on Layered Bob
@becoming_kayla
Don’t you love the vibrant red? As much as women love ashy tones, too many are afraid of seeing any trace of even a medium red shade in their hair. This cinnamon layered bob was created by hairstylist Kayla Elizabeth of Park City, UT.
“Red short hair styles have amazing benefits, such as making green and blue eyes pop,” says Kayla.
Red hair short itself isn’t very common. Kayla recommends trying Aveda colors because they’re not pre-mixed. “So it’s perfect for redhead women who want to be out of the box. Every color is custom to meet each person’s individual needs.”
“Adding dimension to your hair with highlights creates a warm tone,” explains Kayla, “this will make your red color a little more interesting to stare at! So go bold, go different, and paint your medium bob hair red!”
Dark Red Balayage
@muahdestiny
This red balayage bob is classy and was created by colorist and natural hair stylist Destiny Moody of Virginia Beach, VA. “The bold red lends itself to the sexy vibe, and the long bob cut offers a classy appeal. The wavy curls add the oh so sassy,” explains Moody.
From very fine to very thick hair, Moody says it’s all about shape and layering for this cut. “Style-wise, bring on the volume and the texture! If your hair isn’t naturally wavy or curly, don’t be afraid to add some to it with a hot styling tool, turning it into gorgeous short curly hair,” she adds.
Moody recommends you try Amika & Moroccan oil products. “Also, find a good blow-out spray, shine spray, and flexible hairspray to maintain shine and enhance waves with managed movement!”

Natural Curly Red Hairstyle
@chris.styleshair
This short red curly hair has varying hues of reds, violets, and pinks. It was created by master cosmetologist Christie Hutchinson of Little Elm, TX. “This red curly hairstyle allows the sunlight to reflect the different tones as opposed to a monochromatic typical red hair color,” explains Hutchinson.
When deciding on short curly red hair, Hutchinson wants you to know it’s a commitment. “This includes a hair maintenance routine in the salon and at home,” she adds.
While permanent red colors are more forgiving with the speed of fading, this fashion color requires either a red shampoo (Joico Red Shampoo) or conditioner (Maria Nila in bright red) to refresh the color and increase longevity. Ask your stylist for recommended salon products for at-home care.
Hutchinson advises it’s best to use cool to lukewarm water during the cleansing and conditioning of this fiery red lob. “Reds complement almost every skin tone, so find the one for you, and you’ll be hooked!”
Shoulder Length Red and Black Balayage
@classiccutsnapanee
“To get this dark red short hair, ask your stylist to use a free hand technique to pre-lighten specific pieces before applying Matrix HD-Red,” explains senior stylist Chantel Davis-Thompson of Canada.
“Don’t you love the vibrancy and depth that comes with adding a red hue to pre-existing black hair? To get your short dark red hair color to pop, opt for shortened layers to add movement and texture,” she adds.
Davis-Thompson reminds us that red hair dye is one of the quickest to fade, thus short red hair definitely needs ultimate care. This needs to be kept in mind when considering short red hair ideas. “Using professional color care shampoos, washing with cooler temperatures, and regular salon visits will help you keep your reds looking fierce! Reds are very versatile and come in many different variations,” she advises.
