What color is cinnamon hair color?

Cinnamon hair color is inspired by the sweet spice of the same name. This warm-toned, reddish-brown hue is deep, dimensional, and is customizable to flatter any skin tone. Carmichael attributes the popularity of cinnamon hair to the trendiness of colors from decades long past.

“We are seeing trends from previous decades return like no other—specifically trends from the ’70s and ‘90s—but with more natural shades added in,” Carmichael says. “‘Cool’ hair without any warmth was popular for so long, so it’s exciting to see something so youthful and rich make a return,” the hair pro says.

Starting with a dark to light brown base, your colorist will work to incorporate hints of orange-red all over your mane. Instead of overwhelming your complexion by suddenly going auburn, you’ll feel like a brunette with a kick of spice.

How do you maintain cinnamon hair color?

If you’re a color addict, it’s essential to recognize that all those salon appointments can take a toll on the condition of your hair over time. Carmichael recommends supporting your hair color (and health) with a line like Redken’s Color Extend Magnetics. The system, which consists of a shampoo, conditioner, and hair mask, gently cleanses and strengthens color-treated hair.

"Redken Color Extend Magnetics Sulfate-Free Shampoo and Conditioner is my go-to saving grace for color protection, followed by Redken One United, which has amazing protection and nourishing benefits,” the stylist says. “You invest a lot in your color, so it’s important to use at-home care products that’ll protect your investment and keep it looking fresh for as long as possible.”

Your mane might also need an extra bit of TLC after a color appointment, which is why we recommend completing the system with a weekly hair mask like Redken Color Extend Magnetics Mega Mask.
