Whether you were born that way or you arrived at your shade via a bottle, brunette hair color is the most popular in the world. Because it is defined by a vast array of shades — from auburn to chestnut or ash — brown hair is found all over the world.

Much like we care for and treat various skin types differently, the same is true for our hair. Brown hair is typically more moisture-rich than other colors, which can sometimes register as oily. Brunette hair is often the first to show a hint of gray hair, but it's also typically easier to conceal. If you dabble in various hair colors for stints of time, you might notice your dyed brunette hair is softer and silkier than when you go blonde, which can make your strands rough around the edges.

Though everyone's hair has unique needs, there are certain products better suited for Team Brunette. Here, a few hair goodies to consider adding to your rotation for healthy, shiny brunette hair.

As we add yet another candle on our birthday cake, our wish isn't about more zeros in our paycheck or finding the love of our life, but rather to have thicker hair. Hair loss is most commonly experienced by men, but many women also experience thin, brittle breaks as they age. To the rescue is this set designed for color-treated brunette hair to strengthen the scalp's natural protective barrier and cut down on breakage. As a bonus, these natural wonders are sulfate- and paraben-free.

If you joined the silver fox (or lady fox) club years ago, you know you don't have to pay the dues if you don't want to. For those who color for fun or out of necessity, the habit can become pricey, especially when roots reveal your actual shade within a month. To the rescues is this cover-up for brunette hair color wannabes. Though its a temporary root powder — meaning it will wash off when you shower — for a quick fix on the go, it's a smart product to keep in your purse or stash in your car.
