25 Fall Strawberry Blonde Hair Colors That Split The Difference Perfectly

Okay, strawberry blonde is genuinely the answer for every client who sits in my chair torn between going red or staying blonde. It’s warm, it’s soft, and it somehow works on more skin tones than almost any other shade I mix.

If you end up wanting something bolder, my fall red hair roundup has the full range of true reds. This one’s specifically about the strawberry blonde middle ground.

Save the shade that feels like the easiest yes.

Classic Strawberry Blonde

Balanced right between blonde and red, this is the formula most people picture when they say “strawberry blonde.”

Golden Strawberry Blonde

Leaning more blonde than red, this version is my go-to for anyone nervous about going too far from their natural color.
