Electric Plum Hair Color
@hairby_darcee
An electric plum hair color looks fun and daring, and the best part is it’s low-maintenance! Color specialist Darcee Williams of Ohio says this color will fade out with multiple washes and return to a natural brown.
“This was created by doing an all-over color on virgin hair,” she explains. “I used the Joico Lumishine 4VV 30 volume.” While this plum color is achievable on all types of hair, Williams believes it works best on virgin hair.

Subtle Dark to Light Plum Ombre
@colorbymichelle
This plum ombre hair was created by balayage specialist Michelle Hernandez of Fresno, CA. “The best thing about this is anyone can rock it – young and old. The fun part is that there are two levels of violet. You have your deep plum color to the lighter red-violet,” she notes.
Hernandez feels anyone can have this shade. “Basically, you could go from the salon to the office. As far as maintenance with any color service, you’ll need to use color-safe shampoo to help longevity and vibrancy. Wash less often. Use protective serum when using hot tools,” she adds.
Plum and Black Balayage
@hairbykayleel
This is a plum balayage, which is a plum hair color on black hair. It was created by stylist Kaylee Lamy of Winnipeg, MB.
“It consists of rich purple tones, softly blended into a dark brown base to give beautiful depth and a striking statement,” explains Lamy. “The best part of this black plum hair color is when the light hits, it gives illusions of different purples. A single hair dye won’t produce this color illusion.”
Balayage is great for a natural grow out. The technique “balayage” is soft and painted on the hair in an artistic manner. Often times the balayage technique needs to first be done as a lightening service in order to get that true color you see in the picture.
Lamy advises, “to keep your color vibrant requires regular refreshing on average 4 to 6 weeks. This color is recommended for women who don’t spend a lot of time in the sun or chlorine. If you do spend time in the sun use shampoo with UV protection and color protection.”
She goes onto explains, “because of the pre-lightening for the balayage base of this service, a leave-in conditioner (strength and anti-breakage) is great to help with how chemically treated hair can act and feel. Prep your style with a heat protectant to preserve and prevent the early fading of the gorgeous plum. Protecting from the high heat of our styling tools also equals healthier hair, which equals richer, shinier colors.”
Plum Red
@sydstylist
This is a beautiful plum red hair color because it has cool tones rather than warm tones, almost as if it has a purple hue to it. It was handcrafted by licensed cosmetologist Sydney Fogner of Columbia, SC.
“It’s fun and powerful without stepping into the vivid category. Don’t you just love cooler reds versus warm coppery reds and bright ‘firetruck’ reds,” she asks.
Fogner says you’re going to need to be prepared to visit the salon more often. “If this is not your natural color and there wasn’t any type of shadow root left, you’re going to have to get your roots touched up at least every 5-6 weeks, as well as refreshes to keep the color vibrant. This is something to take into account for sure because you are upping the maintenance as well as what you’ll be spending on your hair,” she explains.
This particular tone looks best with cooler skin tones, especially those with pink undertones. However, the formulation can be personalized. Either darker/lighter or cooler tones/warmer tones can still be in the plum realm but fit a different skin tone. A great thing about this type of red is it is still professional. It’s not natural, but it’s also not in your face.
Eggplant Plum Color
@katelynn_hhair
This eggplant plum color is a rooted color melt and was created by stylist and colorist Katelynn Hillenbrand of Centereach, NY.
“Ask your colorist to work with your tones to create exactly what you’ve been looking for, a mix of plum and jam tones with a deeper brown root,” says Hillenbrand.
With different shades of plum, Hillenbrand advises you to open up a conversation about maintenance and color preservation with at-home care prior to the color service with your colorist. “If you’re looking to have this dark plum hair color, you’re in for some upkeep,” she notes.
Consider 6-week upkeep appointments that include a root touch-up and creative color glaze. Purples and plums like this are great for a bit of an edge that’s still workplace acceptable in most cases!
Burgundy Plum
@msmalydoeshair
“This shade of plum is for women who want a subtle but different look,” says hairstylist Maly Souvannasap of Ogden, UT. “If you previously had a light brown balayage and want this plum hue, go for it! Using the right products will also make this come alive.”
Souvannasap says your hair would either need to be all-natural and never colored or have any highlights to get this color to show. “Also, note that it does take good quality shampoos and hair products to keep your hair looking its best! Talk to your stylist about the different hair products they recommend to keep this color looking fresh,” she adds.
Deep Plum Hair Color
@francine_scissorhands
