There are two elementary rules when it comes to picking the best hair color for your hair –
1. Don’t deviate too much from your natural color range. Your hair will look better if you stay within 3 or 4 shades of your natural hair color.
2. Match your hair color with your skin tone. The two basic types of skin tones are warm and cool.
An easy way to tell if you have a warm tone is to look if the veins on the inside of your arms are tinged with green. Those with pink or blue skin undertones fall into the cool category and they have blue tinged veins.
Warm Skin Tones Can Consider These Colors:
Gold, Honey, Caramel, Copper, Red, Mahogany, Strawberry blonde, Chocolate, Ginger, Orange based reds, Dark browns, Rust
Cool Skin Tones Can Consider These Colors:
Platinum, Ash-blonde, Cream, Sandy, Coffee, Jet black, Fawn, Mid-level blondes, Flat browns, Wine, Mahogany, Burgundy
Some other basic rules of thumb to consider are –
• Dark or olive skin tone work best with darker hair colors.
• Yellow skin tones will look perfect with dark and rich colors, such as deep auburn or chestnut.
• Pink skin is magnificent for neutral tones, but can look too pink with red and gold shades.
Can You Go Blonde?
Some women look good in any color but most don't. If you had blonde hair as a kid, you'll likely look good with blonde hair as an adult. You'll also look good blonde if you have pink skin that burns easily, and blue or green eyes.
Go (or Stay) Brown
If you have super pale skin and brown hair, consider going lighter. Super dark shades can wash you out and even make you appear older.
Can I Go Red?
Almost everyone can go red, if it’s the right shade. Get a professional consultation to avoid hair that turns out orange.
