34 Chestnut Brown Hair Color Ideas for a Brunette Glow
When we think of hair that glows, buttery blondes and radiant redheads immediately come to mind. But brunettes needn’t be left out of the equation. Rich brown tresses have every bit the warm, luminous essence of lighter hues. Chestnut hair is a rich brown color with red undertones that come through in natural sunlight. The shade, which is flattering at any length and on every skin tone, can be combined with caramel, honey, and deeper shades of brown in the form of highlights, lowlights, or balayage.
Although dying your hair chestnut brown may seem like an easy transition, it can be tricky to nail, which is why seeing a pro is a good option if you’re new to the shade. We asked the experts for their advice on this it-color and how to best rock it, no matter your hair texture.
