In an era where copper hair has never been cooler, there are several stars staying true to their roots and embracing their natural locks.
Princess Kate, arguably the world's most talked about brunette, has long stayed true to her deep, walnut-hued hair. Over in Hollywood, Amal Clooney's glossy brunette mane and Salma Hayek's dark locks have been having a moment on the red carpet. On the model circuit, Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid have all proven that jet brunette is the colour of the season. Sorry blondes, maybe you don't have more fun after all?
The new year is a time to usher in new beginnings, so whether you're looking for an excuse to dip over to the dark side, or simply need some hair inspiration to show your stylist, keep reading to discover the celebrity brunette babes rocking chocolate brown shades this season.
Amal Clooney
Hollywood style muse Amal Clooney's naturally thick, tumbling waves have long been her greatest accessory. The human rights barrister has always boasted deep, cocoa-hued hair, which she occasionally adds honeyed balayage to.
There's rarely a moment where Salma Hayek's glossy, dark brunette hair doesn't look perfectly preened. Salma has long been an advocate of natural beauty, and in recent years, has even started to embrace her greys - both on and off the red carpet.
"Here is a tip to cover your white hair without dyeing it” she wrote in an Instagram post, concluding with, "Don’t wear your glasses on your hair!!! Bring on the wisdom."
