Red can mean many things: stop, danger, anger, love. But in our industry, it means truly beautiful hair, and the colouring skills it takes to achieve the right tones for red hair. MHDPro’s Creativity in Hues of Red hairdressing course provides all you need to learn how best to maximise this bold statement for your clients.

Coloured Red Hair

Coloured red hair has been popular for as long as hairdressing has been around, but in more recent years it’s become the flaming trend we see all over Pinterest and Instagram. Celebrities adapt their own versions of colour to what suits them, which in turn creates even more trends.

Trends are forever adapting and evolving, so it’s important that you do the same with your colour techniques to keep on top of what your client wants, and MHDPro has the perfect package.

Rihanna’s Red Hair

The release of Rihanna’s album LOUD was overshadowed by the debut of her brand new bright red hair. Immediately, salons across the world were full of girls going for the same look. The intensity of the colour spawned most of the vivid trends of today.

When attempting this kind of bold colour look, it’s important to achieve even saturation for the colour to look how you want it. Christiano Lanza has some top tips on colour palette and placement, which will enhance your colouring skills.

Emma Stone

Once you’ve got the colour and cut mastered, how you style your clients is really up to you. Here, Emma Stone wears a more muted ‘salon-friendly’ shade of burnt red, styled in a tousled wavy bob and a full fringe.

Tim Hartley focuses on how to cut an 80s inspired variation of a bob style, with a rounded back and clean open fringe to tame the brow and eyes – with the bright red colour throwing back to the 80s vibe.

Ariana Grande

Ariana Grande looks a little different now, but this cherry red colour was one of her best styles yet. This bold application is recreated by Tracy Hayes using a base colour of deep reds and violets. Her result is a vibrant outburst of reds and pinks highlighting the bold statement haircut.

Hayley Williams

When you cast your mind to hair trendsetters, Hayley Williams from Paramore comes out on top. Every time she changes her hair, trends are created. This full fringe short crop is a nod to the Sassoon iconic 5-point cut, which is demonstrated on the MHDPro package by Stacey Broughton.

For his version, Stacey’s result is a bold modern interpretation of an historically important and groundbreaking haircut, expertly cut and sharpened by Charmaine’s Piche’s striking colour work.
