The List | How To Pull Off The Trendy Strawberry Brunette Hair
One of the easiest ways to transform your look is by changing your hair color. Maybe you want a change because you’re bored — updating your hair color is always fun and exciting. If you’ve ever wanted to go blonde and don’t know what shade to choose, strawberry blonde is a yummy choice. If you’re not ready to go blonde but still want the deliciousness of strawberry on your brown strands and thought it was impossible, think again because there’s such a thing as a strawberry brunette. It’s like chocolate ice cream topped with strawberry sauce.
Move over strawberry blondes, because strawberry brunettes are taking over, and this treat of a hair color is a welcoming change for anyone with darker tresses. While most brunettes go for caramel or golden highlights, adding this berry color can be a pleasant and unexpected change. Read on for options and advice on pulling off this trending hair colour!

Gina Rivera’s Tip of the Week: How to Style Using a Claw Clip
Accessories are great for summer and one of my favorites is the Claw Clip. Here’s my recommendation for using a Claw Clip when getting ready for your next outing:
- Try different styles with the Claw Clip by pulling the hair back in sections. A favorite of mine is half up and half down.
- Consider creating a French twist and securing with a Claw Clip. Allow the hair at the top of the clip to cascade over the clip creating a fun and messy look.
- Pony tails can be a great option for the claw clip. Just pull the hair together at the nape of the neck and twist twice. Then, cover the twist and allow the ponytail to flow out of the top of the claw clip
- Never pull the hair overly tight when using a Claw Clip because the stress placed on the hair may result in breakage.
- Always use a good wet line to ensure the hair is hydrated when using accessories.
