Cherry red, on your own photo.

Cherry is a deep berry red with a violet edge. On dark hair it shows as a rich glow; on lighter hair it is a bold, jewel-toned red. See it on your own hair in seconds, before anyone opens a tube of dye.

Is cherry right for you?

Who it suits

Cool and neutral undertones, olive skin and dark eyes. It is one of the few vivid shades that works on dark hair without much lightening.

What to ask your colourist

A deep red-violet. On dark brown hair it can often be done without bleach for a tinted glow; for a brighter cherry the hair is lifted a little first.

Keeping it fresh

Reds fade fastest. Cool water, sulfate-free shampoo and a red colour-depositing conditioner keep it rich between appointments.

Questions

Cherry hair colour

Can I get cherry red without bleach?

On dark hair you get a subtle cherry tint without bleach. A vivid cherry needs some lightening.

Cherry or ruby?

Cherry is deeper and more violet; ruby is brighter and pinker. Try both on your photo.

Will my real colour look like the preview?

Take it as a direction, not a promise. The salon result depends on your current colour, your hair’s condition, the products and your colourist, and the light in your photo changes how a shade reads.

The demo model is an AI-generated photo. Previews are made in the studio on your device and show a direction, not a guaranteed salon result.
