Brunettes Unite!

I have a mousy to darker brown color but with a reddish tint sometimes more visible in natural light.

Here you can see the reddish tint a lot more as I'm outside in natural light.

(How I wish my hair was still at this length in the pictures.)

I am growing out my brunette hair right now...it will be fun to see my actual natural color and see what kinds of high lights I have. I haven't seen my natural hair color for probably 8 yrs or more..eek! It's always been some sort of shade of red or brown, just never my natural color.

I do know from my bangs which are all my real color, that it definitely looks a bit red in the right light.

IrishLassie, I love that style you're wearing in your picture!

I'm a brunette, and I also have reddish tints to my hair... but that's mostly in the summer, probably because of the sun. Right now it's just plain dark brown.

The last few inches of my hair are lighter than the rest (damage? my friend pointed it out to me last week, I hadn't even noticed), almost reddish.
This is probably what my color looks like most of the time. Dark brown, leaning towards black in poor lighting, or towards lighter brown in the sun.

I don't have any down pictures that show color differences (I guess it's more visible in real life), but this bun does (it was summer, my hair doesn't look like that all the time, at least not as far as I know). I'm not sure whether to say reddish or just light brown.

My color can be so weird. Sometimes it looks almost black:

And other times, well, this is pretty red:

What would you call it?

Maybe you have a crazy camera like me, that some days just decides to make my hair flash back red even though my brunette hair is very ashy with no red whatsoever

Yay for brunettes!

My hair is dark brown. It has a red sheen in the sunlight. My mother had long black asian hair, so that's where I get my texture and color. Dad has really think curly light brown hair. I got his thickness. - It's cool to see lots of girls have red tints! When I was thirteen I dyed my hair red without bleaching first, and you couldn't tell unless the light hit it right. It was pretty awesome lol. Though these days I would never do such a thing, hehe.

Pics!

Brunettes FTW!

My hair is Robert Craig #3 Chocolate Brown because I don't like how I've started graying. It's the close to my natural color, which looks black in normal light and reddish brown / auburn in direct sunlight.

Is it just me, or does OP look like dark blonde?

Anyway, after seeing some of the pics here, I now think I don't belong nor here nor in the blondette thread...

what a lovely updo!!
may I ask for directions?

I am brunette to, my natural hair color is the same like yours.
I also had red envy for really long time, and eventually I dyed it to red. I try this for three times, once a year, but it was never red enough for me (because my natural color is very dark, and I don't want to bleach it. so it was just a wine red in the dark...). right now the most of my hair (like all the length above the chin) is some kind of red, but I will glad to join here when I will be brunette again...
