Styling Tips
- Use color-safe shampoo and cool or lukewarm water to keep wine-toned burgundy from fading.
- Apply a shine serum to boost the glossy, jewel-like finish that makes burgundy look its best.
- Refresh burgundy with a gloss or tinted conditioner between salon visits.
- Limit heat styling and always use heat protectant to protect both color and shine.
- Wear a hat or UV-protectant spray in strong sun, since sunlight fades deep reds quickly.
- Try sleek styles for the richest burgundy shades and soft waves for a more casual finish.
- Get regular trims so split ends do not dull the wine-toned richness.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does burgundy suit everyone?
Burgundy comes in many depths, from soft plum-leaning versions to very deep wine shades, so there is a version for most skin tones. Fair skin often suits a slightly brighter burgundy, while deeper burgundy flatters medium and deep skin tones. A stylist can help you find the depth that brightens your face.
How do I stop burgundy from fading?
Deep reds fade faster than most colors, so gentle washing makes a big difference. Wash less often, use cool water, and choose color-safe products. A burgundy gloss or tinted conditioner can refresh the wine tones between appointments.
Is burgundy hard to maintain?
Burgundy needs regular upkeep to stay rich, usually a refresh every five to seven weeks. Deeper burgundy shades last a little longer than brighter ones because fading is less noticeable. At-home glosses can help you stretch the time between salon visits.
Can I wear burgundy for everyday life?
Yes, burgundy is surprisingly wearable every day because its depth reads as elegant rather than loud. A sleek bob, lob, or layered cut makes it look polished for work. Save the boldest textures for evenings if you want a more dramatic effect.
Will burgundy stain clothes or pillows?
Freshly colored deep red hair can transfer a little color when wet, especially in the first few washes. Rinse well, dry your hair before bed, and use a dark towel for the first few washes. Once the color settles, transfer is much less likely.
