Copper brown hair is popular among women for its shine and elegance. In addition to being beautiful, its warm finish adds luminosity and is full of advantages, such as combining with all hair types and looking amazing on any skin tone. It is the ideal color for brunettes who want a sophisticated look, no matter the season: the sun's reflection enhances and brightens the tone of the strands during the hot months, while in the cold months, its copper nuances warm up the look.

Copper brown, also known as auburn brown, is a color that combines the classic light brown base with copper tone reflections, providing a modern look. As it is neither too light nor too dark, the color is practical and versatile. You can invest in a global color - cover the locks evenly in a single tone -, or adopt a subtle lighting through techniques such as lights, highlights and ombré hair with copper reflections. Copper brown on brunettes is also a great bet for the lit brunette look!

If you want to go brunette, know that achieving a coppery brown is not difficult when you take the necessary care. Bleaching is not necessary most of the time, but if your hair is a very dark shade, you can choose to lightly lighten the strands to make the copper tone stand out. For light-haired divas who don't need to go through the discoloration process, it's worth resorting to the help of a professional, preventing blonde or red hair from getting stained.

How to dye your hair auburn brown at home: complete step by step

The first step to getting a coppery brunette at home is choosing your hair dye. To facilitate its transformation, opt for global coloring with a single paint that unites the brown background with copper-colored pigments, such as the 5.74 Copper Brown color by Cor&Ton.

With the paint in hand, separate everything you will need for the transformation - a plastic bowl, a brush, a wide-toothed comb and hair clips - and follow the step-by-step:

Step 1: Divide the hair into small sections. Remember that the locks must be 100% dry and unwashed for 1 to 3 days;
Step 2: Place the entire contents of the bleach and oxidizer tube in the plastic container. Blend with the brush until smooth;
Step 3: Start applying the mixture to each strand, from root to tip. Repeat the process until the dye has been applied to all hair;
Step 4: Use the wide-toothed comb to comb the strands, then massage the strands to distribute the dye throughout the hair;
Step 5: Let it act for 40 minutes. Tip: it's very important to respect the indicated break time, so that the locks don't get stained or with insufficient coverage, ok, diva?
Step 6: After 40 minutes, rinse the locks thoroughly to remove all the dye. Do not use shampoo, just running water.

Diva tip: Cor&Ton inks contain three sachets of FixaCor, a low pH treatment with D-Panthenol, keratin and UV filter, to hydrate the strands, protect the color and seal the cuticles. Apply the first sachet right after rinsing and let it act for three minutes. Then rinse again. The remaining sachets should be used 15 and 30 days after coloring.

This coloring does not require touch-ups very often, due to the durability of the brown background, which does not fade easily like lighter colors. However, if you notice fading after a certain time, you can maintain the color with a toner.

Color wear can also be a result of using heat tools, such as flat irons and dryers, and even the sun's rays. To prevent hair oxidation, bet on products with antioxidant actives and thermal protection, in addition to a hair care routine to keep the color vibrant and the strands healthy.
