40 Black Cherry Hair Color Ideas To Keep You Stunning

by Sherri Owens

Black cherry hair color is created with a blend of burgundy, magenta, violet, and black. Its tone can be adjusted to be intense or subtle, light or dark, depending on your skin tone.

In a YouTube video by hair color specialist Brad Mondo, he explained the difference between warm and cool skin tones. He stated that people with cool skin tones look better with darker hair colors, and those with warm skin tones stun better with lighter hair colors.

This means that if you have a cool skin tone, a black cherry hair color with more black than cherry highlights will look better on you. If you have a warm skin tone, a black cherry hair color with less black and more bright red and purple will enhance your facial features.

Whatever tone you decide to go for, you are sure to look stunning with your black cherry hair. So here are 35 stunning black cherry hair color ideas to try out on your next appointment.
