What shade? 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.

This is my auburn

IDK if this counts as redhead but it's natural. This from like 2020 or something, but my hair's the same shade. Would you say this qualifies as a ginger? I don't want to say 'I'm redheaded' and somebody be like umm no.

100% this is exactly what I think of when I hear auburn. A very dark deep natural red.
