Whether you are looking to shake things up or want a low-key minimalistic transformation, it's the best time to go for that change. From bold and quirky highlights to cool blondes matching the winter canvas to brunettes and blondes, here are a few ideas to inspire your next hair color.
Chocolate Base with Caramel Ribbons

Just like you love a cup of hot chocolate sprinkled with cinnamon, you will love the toasty combination of brown and blonde. Opt for a brunette base-like chocolate hair color and add a touch of balayage with caramel highlights. If you have dark brown or chocolate hair, add soft caramel ribbon highlights to create the perfect balance. Caramel hue is a deep shade with dominant brownish-gold undertones and beautifully contrasts against the brunette base. Pair reddish caramel highlights with chocolate brown hair for that extra oomph and flattering look.
Soft Blonde With Hues of Red and Green

If the regular browns and blondes bore you, it's time to add a pop of green and red and embrace that Christmas feeling with all heart. Go for that soft, beachy, loose wave with a subtle ombre of red and green along the length. Tie a cute bun or keep your hair loosely open - there is so much you can do. Style your Christmas hairstyle by adding a few silver sparkly hair accessories and beads to complete the look. Try Moehair's range of red and green Voodoo semi-permanent colors to add the highlights.
Plum Purple Balayage

Take the essence of plum cake a little further and settle on plum purple balayage. Go moody against the blanket of snow by coloring your hair in deep, vibrant shades of purple. The marbled mix of plum balayage on a deep purple base envelopes a statement aura. Live the royalty and feel like a diva this Christmas with purple hues casting a spotlight on your style — pretty it up with a silver trinket or clips to complete your merry look. If purple is not your sweet spot, try temporary hair dye like Moehair Purple Hair Color.
Frost or Platinum Blonde

Do you need to check with a dramatic transformation? Call in that Elsa vibe and be the one with the snow and ice with platinum or frosted blonde. Sync beautifully against the moody gray skies and flakes of snow as you get your strands colored in cool-toned hues. However, going all platinum is a high-maintenance deal, and it only takes a little more than frequent salon visits to keep the color vibrant. If your heart and spirit are set on frosted platinum shade, use blue-pigment-infused toner like Moehair Color Infuse Silver Toner once or twice a month to keep off the brass.
Two-Toned Split Dye

Take your Christmas spirit soaring and try something unique this holiday season. If you feel a little experimental and want to embark on that bold hair color journey, now is the time. Dive into the ultimate holiday spirit in eccentric split-dye hues - yes, go for that bold green and red Christmas hair color. Color one half of your hair deep green and the other bright red, creating a sharp yet eye-catching contrast. Opt for Moehair Red Hair Dye and Green Hair Dye to create the look if you want a temporary change.
Platinum Blonde with Red Ribbons

If you are looking for the perfect Christmas hair color combination that's pretty and cute, try platinum blonde with red ribbon highlights. Streaks of bright red on an icy platinum base will give your hair the much-needed holiday upgrade. However, if you are not keen on using a red hair color, try weaving streaks of red extension on loose, soft waves of platinum. Keep the hair loose and open, or wear that chic side braid to bank on that Xmasy feel. Style up your hair by adding a star or snowflake-shaped hair accessory.
Frosty Blue Balayage with Teal Roots

Pair up two stunning cool shades to create this Christmas-approved balayage look. Use frosty blue balayage from mid-length to the ends, and keep the roots colored in deep teal to create that stunning holiday look. Style your hair in soft, flowy waves and embrace the Christmas spirit with the right accessory. Use a holiday-themed headband with bells, ribbons, and trinkets to complete your look. Don't go overboard with makeup; keep it light—a no-makeup look with flushed cheeks is good to go.
Coffee Brown Loose Waves

Always a classic, no matter the season or reason - coffee brown blonde is always in. Style your tresses in loose waves and tie them softly in a half-up style. You can opt for ombre or balayage or simply coloring all hair uniformly - coffee brown is all for that elegant statement. Honor the subtle Christmas hair color using a red velvet bow or headband, and let your holiday charm pop out. For naturally straight hair, use a curling iron to get those soft bends, but use a heat protectant like Moehair Thermal Shield Spray to protect hair from heat damage.
Accessorize Black Hair

After all, black hair is not boring when you team it with the right accessories and trinkets. Whether you have sleek, straight, or bouncy curls, there is so much you can do to level up your holiday styling game. Look for hair accessories like bands pinned and stitched with snowflakes, green or red accents, or ribbon - add the much-needed holiday charm. Or else you can choose the sleek high bun and use a golden bow to add to the festive cheer. Going black is chic against winter's white canvas and twinkling Christmas light.
Dark Green Balayage with Black Roots

Two dark and deep colors are a good idea when it’s dark green balayage with 1 to 2 inches from roots painted in black. With the hues of green, be the enchantress and flaunt your style this Christmas. To feel like a forest fairy, sweep your waves into a loose braid and add small silver snowflake clips or beads along the braid. As the black roots merge with dark green, it's time to let everyone know you are all set to rock that Christmas look.
If wine, blonde, and brown are monotonous for a Christmas look, these hair colors and styles above should be on your radar. These playful, fun, and stunning Christmas hair color ideas add to the holiday charm and bring in that much-needed color transformation. So, let your festive spirit soar high, and try something unique and feisty this Christmas.
