Dreads are often seen on Black people and women love to rock long dread hairstyles. A partial fade makes this long mane slightly edgy, perfect for the lady with a little badness in her personality.

21. Richly Red

Shades of red come in every imaginable variation. Rich auburn isn’t a common hue among black people who have natural red hair, but neither is it unheard-of. It throws off so many highlights and lowlights that you have to admit it’s breathtaking.

22. Fire Orange

Many Black people with red hair boast a shade similar to this one. It’s warm, coppery, and brilliant as a sunset. What might come off as a brash orange on pale skin is a masterpiece here. Vivid hues were made for Black women.

23. Radiant Russet

Russet red, which has orange undertones, is another glorious shade. It’s vibrant and autumn-toned, with flecks of darker red and deep gold. You can’t even hope to get this color out of a box.

24. Carroty Curls

Here, carrot-top is no longer an insult. It’s a compliment. Look at this lovely black woman with short curly hair. She’s brighter than the sun she’s smiling under, don’t you think?

25. Softly Shorn

It’s important to reiterate that there are all types of Black people with red hair—women and men.

Red Highlights for Different Colored Hair

Were you aware that there were Black people with red hair? It seems like such a silly question, doesn’t it? Just as Black people encompass a variety of melanin-rich skin tones, they can also be born with red hair, blue eyes, and yes, even freckles. And they’re beautiful.
