Warm up cold winter days with these fiery shades of red hair. Whether you want to add a subtle hint of red or fully commit to red all over, these looks will prove that red is the new black. Nervous about taking the plunge? Darker hues of red will still make a statement without being too bright or bold. Red shades like cherry, plum, and crimson also mix well with other shades so you can gradually add them in for a warm touch that's perfect for the fall and winter seasons.
