  Thanks to artificial haircolor, women don't have to accept the color they were born with; a plethora of haircolors are just waiting to be tried. A change of haircolor can achieve a bold new look or simply hide gray hair. A woman's choice of color will depend on factors such as her features and personal style.
  
  

Copper Red

• A popular choice for women yearning for red hair, copper red is bound to turn heads, since it's bright and hard to miss in a crowd. Copper red typically comes in two shades: dark and light. Women fancying this color should think carefully before trying it, however: While copper red can be attractive on others, many women find it to be too bold for them. As pointed out by the Style Hair Magazine website, these copper reds are also tough to tone down once they're applied.
  
  

Strawberry Blonde

• This color is somewhere between red and blonde, since the presence of bleached-blonde highlights means that the red in the hair is lightened. This haircolor is best for women with fairer skin or light hair who want to explore a shade of red.
  
  

Jet Black

• A favorite with members of the Gothic subculture, jet-black hair has a certain mystique and can complement a woman's look if she's cultivating an alternative image. However, women considering going black should know that it's difficult to remove quickly, since it can't be colored over, and takes a long time to grow out. So women should be sure they really want black hair before they take the plunge.
  
  

Bombshell Blonde

• Blondes always turn heads, making the bombshell-blonde look popular with women desiring a new look. Blonde hair will get you noticed, according to the "Marie Claire" magazine website, and is suitable for women who had fair hair as children. The disadvantage of blonde is that it must be kept in top condition--by using maintenance products, for example--and is therefore an expensive option. Women might find it best to have an expert help them go blonde, so a salon visit will add to the cost.
