Red hair is back for 2024 and bolder than ever - these are the shades to wear

Rihanna is pictured with red curly hair whilst at the 2010 American Music Awards, alongside a picture of Julia Roberts with dark copper hair at the Fairmont Century Plaza on January 15, 2023 and finally, Megan Fox pictured with bright red hair and dark roots at the GQ Men of the Year Party 2023/ in a dark pink, three-picture template.

While 2023 was the year of copper, this year is already taking a more dramatic turn, with vibrant cherry and burgundy red hair looks emerging...

The signs were definitely there but even we must admit that we're surprised to see statement merlot-hued hair (circa 2010) making a comeback. We'd written it off as an outdated hair colour trend long ago but if the 2024 hair trends - along with the industry's leading hairstylists - are to be believed, the bold look has indeed returned. And while bob hairstyles and more subtle shades, like grey-embracing "Crystal Clear" blonde and silver hair are also in, we must give red hair its dues.
