Quick Answer
There are between 500 and 1,000 different hair dye colors. We included a list of over 100 different hair dye colors – scroll down to learn more about it.
How Many Hair Colors Are There?
There are countless shades of natural hair colors that exist in the world, each unique and beautiful in its own way. From deep browns to warm reds, from sun-kissed blondes to rich blacks, the possibilities are endless.
In fact, the number of natural hair colors is so vast that it would be impossible to determine an exact number.
So whether you’re a natural brunette, a fiery redhead, or a sun-kissed blonde, take pride in your unique hair color and embrace its natural beauty.
Nonetheless, there are three relevant statistics about hair colors that science shows us:
- According to News Medical, the five most common hair colors in the world are black, brown, black, white/gray, and, ultimately, red.
- Dark brown is the most popular hair color in the world, according to World Population Review.
- 49% of women in the United States do not usually have their natural hair color – instead, they consistently dye their hair to new colors, according to SWNS statistics; I’m part of these statistics, by the way!
How Many Hair Dye Colors Are There?
The answer to this question is a mystery that will live in the history of hair dyes forever!
I think that there are as many hair dye colors as there are colors in the world.
The American Academy of Ophthalmologists (AAO) says that there are over 10,000,000 visible colors in the universe!
I don’t think that there are over 10 million hair dye colors, but I do believe (and statistics prove it) that there are between 500 and 1,000 different types of hair dye colors, perhaps even more.
