This color looks best on medium and dark skin tones with pink or red undertones. This brunette color is on the darker side, so if you have dark brown hair, you will not have to bleach drastically.
In addition to working well with any skin tone, this color looks well with any hair cut and style. Whether it’s a blunt bob or long luxurious layers, purple brown hair will make both styles pop. Since it is a dark shade, you will not need to bleach your hair to achieve this color.

Since you can use a semi permanent color to achieve this look, it will be easier to try this shade out without making a big commitment.
