This hair shade has green or blue undertones, though these undertones are not that apparent. This color is best for women who want to have brunette hair minus the common red undertones. Women with cool undertones will look dazzling in this hair tone. Any contrasting hair color will work great as highlights for ash brown hair. If you want to make a statement, try putting red highlights on your ash brown hair!

Auburn Brown

This hair color, on the other hand, has undertones of red and copper. Auburn is considered a light to medium brown hair color. Women with warm skin tone will look ravishing with this bright brown color. If you want to darken your strands, you can do so with the help of dark brown hair dyes.

Light brown

Light brown hair is characterized by having gold or blonde hair interspersed along the way. This color works best in women with warm undertones. Should you decide to dye your hair in this shade, make sure to add highlights near your face for a more regal look. Great highlights ideas include blonde, or other colors at least two shades away from your current hair tone.
