What color is Jesus, and is there a Hadith contradiction?

In some hadith, Jesus is said to be of red or reddish-white. eg:

Narrated Ibn `Abbas: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "I saw Moses, Jesus and Abraham (on the night of my Ascension to the heavens). Jesus was of red complexion, curly hair and a broad chest [ ref ]

Also see Jesus was reddish-white.
Yet another hadith says:

Narrated Salim from his father:
No, By Allah, the Prophet (ﷺ) did not tell that Jesus was of red complexion but said, "While I was asleep circumambulating the Ka`ba (in my dream), suddenly I saw a man of brown complexion. He was the son of Mary. [ref]

Only Allah knows the truth, but my question is: why two sahih hadiths contradict each other or, why two contradicting hadith are graded as sahih?
