Redheads are rare. In fact, less than 2% of the world’s population have naturally red hair. But that doesn’t stop it from being a popular colour choice down at the salon or on the red carpet. From Julianne Moore and Emma Stone to Amy Adams and Isla Fisher – A-list celebrities have been donning various scarlet shades in recent years that have inspired so many of us to rock red. For a few celebrities, their beautiful red tones are au naturel, but for many it’s actually down to dye. Take Emma Stone and Amy Adams - both are naturally blonde but have been quoted saying they now identify most as redheads.
Whether they’re born with it or not, we’ve rallied the best celebrity red hair moments from the awards season, social media and our favourite television series to binge on (Riverdale, Games of Throne and Poldark, to name a few). So, if you are considering a colour change - be it auburn highlights, strawberry blonde or scarlet red - take inspiration from our gallery below, save your favourite looks, and take them with you to your next colour appointment when the salons re-open…
