Copper hair is having a moment, according to TikTok, Gigi Hadid, and the forecasts of top stylists. The vibrant hue is a gorgeous mix of fiery red, light brunette, and rustic orange — a color blend many are opting for. Here, 11 celebs who prove copper hair is it right now.

SZA’s Highlighted Copper

Sophie Turner’s Brushed Brass

Turner came of age on the screen with brushed brass strands as Sansa Stark. Although the actress has been blonde for some time now, her name will forever conjure an image of a deep-hued copper mane.

Keke Palmer’s Fiery Curls

No one does hair transformations like Palmer. For her “Dreamcatcher” video shoot, the singer and actor seamlessly pulled off curtain bangs and divine voluminous curls in a red-tinted copper tone.

Natasha Lyonne’s Signature Hue

Since Lyonne’s very early start in Hollywood, the actor has almost always sported a mane in varying shades of copper and brass. While filming Russian Doll, she made a compelling case for pairing the fiery hue with curly bangs.

Bella Hadid’s Dark Copper Strands

Always on top of the trends, Hadid took a cue from her sister Gigi with this brassy color. After dipping her toe into the shade with chunky highlights, she briefly wore a full head of the shade earlier this year.

Lucy Hale’s Copper Lob

Hale's lob is proof that you can experiment with the copper trend without necessarily making a dramatic change. The actor's wavy brunette hair was subtly lightened and tinted a brass copper earlier this year.

Anya Taylor-Joy’s Royal Red

Taylor-Joy's signature copper mane from The Queen’s Gambit was arguably the start of the hair color trend. In an Instagram selfie, the star shows off the vivid hue with baby bangs and a short bob.

Lizzo’s Fire Engine-Copper Curls

Phoebe Dynevor’s Soft Copper

The Bridgerton star recently traded in her blonder strands for an eye-catching copper hue and curtain bangs. At the EE British Film Academy Awards, she styled them in old Hollywood-style curls with her fringe swept to the side.

Gigi Hadid’s Copper Lengths

The traditionally blonde Hadid sister went with a striking copper red in March, just in time to strut the runway for Versace at Milan Fashion Week.

Zoey Deutch’s Lustrous Red

Deutch has been a copper-haired stalwart for some time now. The actor tends to keep her head-turning red mane in varying bob lengths.
