Men’s hair colour FAQs

If you’re new to colouring your hair, we’ve got the answers to some commonly asked questions about men’s hair colour.

Hair colour is generally a matter of taste but there are certain colours that will suit you better than others depending on your hairstyle, skin tone and attire.

Your social group and your job can also influence your hair colour but, overall, popular men’s hair colours tend to be more traditional.

Some of the top men’s hair colours in 2024 according to L’Oréal Paris are:

  • Jet black
  • Platinum blonde
  • Copper brown
  • Golden blonde
  • Salt and pepper

Use a shampoo and conditioner that is formulated for colour treated hair. Avoid over washing and use a suitable hair oil or mask afterwards.

Avoid the hair dryer as much as possible, heat can affect the longevity of the colour and cause hair damage. Avoid exposure to the sun as well, it can dull the colour.

According to Healthline, it is possible for hair dye to damage the hair but this can be mitigated with the right products and by avoiding other damaging treatments at the same time (like excessive heat styling).

Avoiding bleaching your hair beforehand can also minimise damage and using a colour similar to your own can minimise exposure to hair colour treatments.

Overall, it is safe to colour your hair and it is possible to ensure the damage is negligible and easy to treat with hair oils or conditioners.
