Is "cinnamon" red or brown hair?
Cinnamon refers to a range of copper and gold tones. It can be a deep red color with copper tints, and a light wheaten-honey shade on chestnut and light brown hair. As a rule, the result of dyeing depends on the original color (dyed or natural) of the strands.
An intense red hue can be obtained by dyeing dark blond and light blond hair. Noble brown, close to chocolate (with bright copper tints), will turn out if the original hair color is chestnut or light black.
