14 Caramel Hair Colors You Need to Try This Summer (2024)

Gisele Bündchen is the Patron Saint of Caramel Hair. Her shade features an ombré that transitions from medium brown to beach blonde at the ends. Once you have the color, mimic her boho waves with OGX Moroccan Sea Salt Spray ($6, amazon.com).

Cleo Wade's tawny hair color, with loads of dimension, works especially well on curly hair like Wade's.

Jasmine Tookes' deep mahogany strands get the caramel treatment thanks to face-framing highlights. To refresh color between dye-jobs, try Rita Hazan Ultimate True Color Shine Gloss ($26, amazon.com).

If you want to move your brown hair closer to blonde, like Allison Janney, ask your stylist to place a few subtle highlights throughout your head for dimension and glow.

Sophia Vergara's deep honey color matches her dark eyes, making for a stunning monotone look.

We love Gigi Hadid's sandy blonde strands layered over a darker blonde base. Bring out the lighter tones in your hair with something like John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray ($12, ulta.com).

Mariska Hargitay's center part is outlined by caramel-colored streaks running down the front of her hair.

If you want to make your curls really stand out, try gilding them with pale amber highlights, a la Janet Jackson.

Jessica Biel's bronde hairstyle looks almost metallic. Amp up the shine quotient by styling your strands with a shine serum like Moroccanoil Glimmer Shine ($28, sephora.com).

You've probably spent hours staring deeply into the curves of the duch*ess of Cambridge's chocolatey waves, hoping to divine the secret to eternally good hair. It helps that her color is full of depth — it seems to shift whenever she turns her head.

Don't love the super highlighted look? Jennifer Lopez's singular shade of caramel brown might be the one for you!

On the other hand, Chrissy Teigen's bob stands out because of the contrast between her rich roots and ashy brown ends.

Jessica Alba's bronze shade perfectly suits her Old Hollywood waves. To steal her look, make sure you have a curling wand like the NuMe Magic Curling Wand ($71, amazon.com) on hand.

Beyoncé is somewhat of a hair chameleon, but her color remains pretty constant. Although she occasionally veers into blonder territory, we can usually expect her to return to this rich hue.
