Wild Black Cherry with Subtle Violet-Red Hues
@hairbylinzb
These wild black cherry hues are similar to that of cherry Kool-Aid. To avoid the black cherry color job looking flat, use two different colors of violet-red, (a base color balayaged into a slightly lighter shade of black cherry ends) to keep a lot of dimensions.
This hue is ideal for women wanting something a bit edgier. Even though it’s on the dark cherry spectrum, you still have to maintain this conservative color.
Dark to Light Cherry Ombre
@_jayybeautyy_
In hairstylist lingo, this black cherry hair color is considered a balayage-ombré, a gradual blending from one color hue to another. It’s ideal for women with virgin medium brown hair. Do a balayage-ombré to lift your hair to a medium blonde, then apply the black cherry hair color.
Add dark plum at the roots and black cherry at the ends, then blend the two together. If you are considering black cherry shades done through balayage or ombré-balayage, in general, just do it!
Black cherry ombre is perfect for that ideal woman who wants something very low maintenance and can be adjusted to fit your color schemes, face shape, and persona. The great thing about this particular dark cherry trend is that it grows out so beautifully and doesn’t show lines of demarcations.
However, if you are considering this hue, it will eventually fade out after some washes. But all you need to do is book a color service for your next appointment instead of a chemical service.
Chocolate Cherry Red
@midwestmelt
This chocolate cherry balayage is perfect for women who are working in a professional environment but are looking to shake things up a bit. It’s a subtle cherry hue on dark hair that is great for when you are looking to explore the world of fashion colors without the constant maintenance of vivid tones.
The layers in the cut work to frame the chocolate cherry hair color and curling it with a large barrel iron really showcases all the dimensions of the hand-painted balayage. This shade of black cherry just goes really well with the layering and is very noticeable at the ends.
This hair idea is perfect for women who are wanting to change up their look while keeping it subtle. The color is flattering on most skin tones, making it really versatile! Use a color-safe shampoo + conditioner like Kevin Murphy.
Black Cherry Coca Cola
@hairstylesbyamandaj
This look is a black cherry cola hair color for sure! A rich black cherry blend of natural and fashion shades is perfect for that work-life balance!
Ask for lived-in or off-base highlights (think balayage) so you have time to “grow in” your natural color. This way you won’t have to touch up your dark cherry highlights very often. Do a red gloss over everything to help with longevity to the red and added shine.
From here, it will be easy for you to go in for your normal 10-12 week haircut, and to add another quick red gloss (think 15 min) to revamp the red and add back the shine! The secret to keeping black cherry tones rich and vibrant is to keep them well maintained.
It’s super important to use a color-safe shampoo and conditioner. You’ll also want to invest in heat protection! This can come in a blowdry cream such as Biolage blowdry lotion (that has heat protection for up to 450 def for up to 4 days) or a spray such as Matrix style link heat buffer.
Artificial reds tend to fade quickly with heat tools, hot showers, and incorrect shampoos, so it’s important to be mindful to keep the cherry coke hair color intact.
