From russet and copper to rust and cinnamon, these celebs are taking red to the next level.

Kirsten Dunst

This subtle shade of cinnamon red is great for brunettes looking for a color change.

Nicole Kidman

Kidman's hair evolution between different tones of red will always keep us watching, and this reddish color with light brown undertones is one for the books.

Florence Welch

Always a sight to behold, Florence Welch's pre-Raphaelite mermaid hair is iconic in its own right.

Tilda Swinton

Proof of how edgy auburn hair can look on shorter, pixie-ish lengths.

Jenna Malone

More red than brown, Malone goes the flame-haired route with a style that looks super pretty when it starts lightening at the ends.

Bryce Dallas Howard

A vampier, cooler shade of auburn like this is the perfect hue for winter and goes especially well with deep jewel tones.

Meghan Trainor

To keep it interesting, add some lighter highlights starting at the cheekbones for a gorgeous, multi-tonal style.

Julia Roberts

We love us some vintage Julia Roberts, seen here with gorgeous reddish locks amd hints of cool purples in the mix.

Ashlee Simpson

Speaking of throwbacks, here's Ashlee Simpson ditching the family blonde for a bold auburn color.

Isla Fisher

Fisher's shiny, deep color has us feeling some type of way.

Kate Mara

Mara's hue is predominantly brunette with *just* enough red to keep you guessing.

Julianne Moore

Hollywood's favorite redhead arrived at the SAG Awards one year with this radiant hue.

Emma's shade of coppery brown is the perfect starting off point for those looking to gradually go red.

Amy Adams

We love the delicate light brown accent in Amy's red 'do.

Lana Del Rey

Lana's moody hair proves that auburn can be super edgy. (The gothic cape doesn't hurt either.)

Khloé ditches the classic brunette color of the Kardashian clan for a striking shade of caramel red.

Lily Collins

Lily shows us how to add some ombre highlights to dark brown hair for the summer.

Christina Hendricks

This bottle redhead's signature color is a rich blend of deep red and brown.

Rose Leslie

Rose rocks a fierce shade of red worthy of her GoT warrior wilding Ygritte.

Jessica goes a deeper shade of red by kicking her color up a notch or two and adding some hints of chocolate-brown.

Karen Elson

Karen's pre-Raphaelite reddish hair is the perfect color of cinnamon to style with a deep red lip.

Lindsay Lohan

Though she now has a caramel-colored dye job, we'll always love OG Lindsay with a vibrant red head of hair.
