#8: Mid-Length Layers with Burgundy
Try a mid-length layered cut with burgundy-mahogany color. The difference between burgundy and mahogany is the tones of violet (burgundy) or tones of (red) mahogany. So, depending on your complexion, you should add both of these, a red-violet, to your brown-based color. A colorist will know which one will suit you best.

And be sure to maintain with a color-safe cleanser like Hairstory’s New Wash Original.

#13: Violet and Mahogany Balayage
Consider a violet mahogany balayage. For dark hair, this is the perfect balayage color. You tend to lift a little warmer, so staying in the tone of caramel can help this color stay vibrant.

Introducing the perfect color for sultry locks – light to dark mahogany! You’ll love how this color goes from light to dark, giving you natural-looking waves. With just the right combination of red and brown, it’s the perfect way to spice up your look. To get the best results, use a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to protect your new color. To style, use a heat protectant and try using a waving iron to create those soft and subtle s-waves.
#15: Dimensional Mahogany with Dark Undertones
Ask for dimensional mahogany with dark undertones for your next color appointment. Great on any hair length; the red hues blend well with darker hair. I suggest using cooler water when rinsing mahogany to prevent fading. Also, use a heat protectant before any heat styling.

Mahogany wine hair color is a rich and luxurious shade of red. If you want to make an impact, this hue will be vibrant and lively and leave an impression! I recommend highlighting your hair before coloring it darker. It will give you the most dimension and light-reflecting results. When at the salon, ask your colorist for a mix of deep mahogany with subtle hints of burgundy. Maintaining this gorgeous look will require occasional touch-ups every few weeks. But don’t worry about fading. Regular conditioning can help keep it looking fresh and nourished.

Muted mahogany ombre hair color is a stunning and unique look. This is the shade for you if you want a hair color that will make a subtle yet impactful style change.

A mahogany ombre creates a nice contrast between your darker roots and lighter ends. It’s great for face shapes you want to elongate, like round or pear. To keep this look fresh, I recommend using color-safe shampoo and conditioner. Also, apply a weekly hair mask.

This medium mahogany hair color is very trendy. It’s subtle, not too outgoing or loud, but unique and beautiful and seems to go with most skin tones. This color gives a lot of dimension to your hair.
#24: Cherry Mahogany Balayage
Cherry mahogany balayage is a more red/ pink hue of mahogany. Starting with a traditional balayage, using a lightener is one of the best ways to get the mahogany color to pop. Also, using multiple glazes with different red, pink, and mahogany tones will add incredible dimension and contrast. Reds generally fade fast, using a color-enhancing treatment like Eufora Color Revive Red, which can help redeposit red tones for longer-lasting color.
#25: Shoulder-Length Mahogany Bob
I suggest a shoulder-length bob for women with darker brunette hair colors. Reds naturally live in darker, warmer territories. So any red or violet tones are ideal for darker levels of hair. If you want to, you can also add lowlights to keep your mahogany dimensional.

If you want this hair color trend, you must be prepared for a pre-lightening service before the color service to get the dimensions.
#39: Stunning Mahogany Balayage
This mahogany balayage is a rich mocha-copper color. The balayage mahogany highlights are warm and brighten your skin without being too bold. Mocha tones and deep copper tones are great options for women who want a pop of color but don’t necessarily want to be super bright like a blonde. It’s important to remember that highlights don’t automatically mean “blonde,” this mahogany style is a perfect example of that.
#40: Dimensional Cherry Mahogany
This is a dimensional red mahogany hair that’s called a reverse ombré. Most traditional ombrés begin dark at the roots and blend to a lighter color on the ends. This ombré goes from light at the root to darker on the ends. The color job is multidimensional, rich in mahogany tone, non-traditional, and worked out with a previously used canvas. Ombré, highlights, or lowlights are a great way to add dimension, depth, and flair to your hair instead of a solid color.

This dark to light mahogany ombre screams vibrancy! It’s a light mahogany color melt style that’s darker on the top and lighter at the ends. The red shades blend so well!
