The Coolest Winter Hair Colors to Try Right Now

After you nail down holiday gifts for everyone on your list, might we suggest turning your attention to the hunt for the best winter hair colors? Yes, it’s somehow already that time, and what better way to usher out 2021 than with a fresh, new shade? 

Low-maintenance blondes, brondes, and browns are certainly having a moment fresh off another year of limited salon access and working from home, but that doesn’t mean hair color is in a boring place—in fact, quite the opposite, and there’s plenty of unexpected inspo to be had. Candy colors like pink and blue are going strong after last year’s DIY revolution, and thanks in part to Gigi Hadid, vivid red is still very much happening. 

We asked top hairstylists for the coolest winter hair trends to try—no matter your style or texture. We also threw in a few DIY options in case you’re not ready or able to head back to the salon yet (just be sure to read our guide on how to color your hair at home first). Read on for the best winter hair colors for 2021, and prepare to screenshot.
