Chrishell Stause Debuts Stunning Whiskey Copper Hair

Reality star Chrishell Stause is showcasing a vibrant new look, debuting a "whiskey copper" hair color just before her 45th birthday on July 21, 2026. The transformation was a collaboration with renowned celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton, who is also a Schwarzkopf Professional Global Color Ambassador.

Appleton described the "whiskey copper" as a natural evolution for Stause, a sophisticated and modern red hue. He noted that her existing rich brunette shade provided an ideal foundation, allowing for a dimensional copper-red that sits between soft auburn and rich cinnamon. This shade offers warmth, depth, and shine without appearing overly orange or burgundy, creating a polished and flattering appearance.

The process involved gently removing artificial pigment, followed by layering Schwarzkopf Professional IGORA Vibrance in copper, cinnamon, and auburn tones to build dimension. A final gloss application enhanced the color's richness and sealed the hair cuticle for a luminous, multidimensional glow. Appleton also shared maintenance tips, recommending a clear gloss to refresh red tones between salon visits.
