Sunset Orange is a fiery, deep red-orange that turns out well on a more medium blonde! Since it’s primarily red-based, the red undertones of Sunset Orange may come through more strongly on hair that is more of a light blonde or higher. This is helpful if you have any brassiness, as Sunset Orange can and WILL cover that right up. It’s no wonder this shade is a consistent bestseller! 🏆

This versatile shade can create stunning results when mixed with other colors or simply on her own. In this blog post,  we'll explore some of the most popular and exciting color combinations 🎨🧡  

✨AF PRO TIP✨ As a general rule of thumb, the darker your base, the deeper the shade! With that being said, you can do a lot with Sunset Orange on a plethora of bases! Yes, even your brunette hair 😉

Cover- Ups✨

A faded warm tone like a red, pink, or most purples would be easily covered by a warm tone like Sunset Orange. However, cooler shades like blues and greens may cause Sunset Orange to appear more muddy or dark if it’s applied on top 🤢  So for example, if you’re wanting to cover a blue or green shade, transitioning to a purple that can cover cooler tones more easily first, THEN moving more toward a red or orange, will give you a more accurate result in the long run!! I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again; The color wheel MATTERS!
