Be it Rhianna's return to red, Kendall Jenner's summery ginger or even Sophie Turner's superhero auburn, it's undeniable that the red revolution is now truly underway. 

Despite its vibrancy, the sheer variety of red hair options you can choose from means that red hues have a unique ability to work across different skin tones. Between deeply pigmented reds, such as cherry and tonal auburn all the way to golden coppers and subtle strawberry, ending at strong head-turning reds, it's easy to see why the colour has become so popular.

Although we adore and envy natural redheads like Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Kidman, if there was ever any doubt about rising power of red hair, you only have to take a look at your Instagram feed to see just how many many other celebrities have been giving the shade a spin this season. Case in point: Dua Lipa's fringe-forward foray into ginger, and the brief moment that Kim Kardashian's followed fiery suit. Even red carpet's favourite darling Zendaya has worn her hair in a dyed auburn red of late. 

Whether you prefer a chic straight bob or a sky-high 'fro, red hair will add even more personality to your overall aesthetic and tailored to match your individual fashion sense. From a classic and timeless look to a more contemporary and edgy style, red hair can be adapted to suit any taste.

So, if you're ready to embrace the change or you're looking for fresh ways to style your natural crop, scroll on to see my edit of incredible red hair ideas below.
