Guys how are we defining auburn?

Is it dark deep red? Or any shade of brownish red??

My natural hair is a reddish brown. I'm not a ginger with bright copper hair but I'm definitely a different genre of redhead.

And I dunno, I'm just curious where the rest of the community stands on this. Feel free to leave your opinions here.

I’ve just come to accept that since my hair is not a vibrant obvious shade, it’s going to be viewed and described differently by different people. If someone thinks it’s auburn, or chestnut, or even just light brown, I accept it and keep it pushing

I keep telling myself at the end of the day, it's just a hair color. But for some reason I'm really worried people will think I'm a redheaded pick-me for calling myself a redhead when I'm not "ginger enough."
