Identify your skin’s undertones.

To determine your skin’s undertones, look at whether you look best in gold or silver jewelry. Is your skin warm? Cool? Do you burn easily or tan? There are two main types of undertones: cool and warm. If you have a warm complexion, your veins will appear greenish when held up against a white background (like the inside of an arm). If they appear blueish, then your complexion is cool. You can also test this by looking at the veins on your wrist. If they look greenish or blueish, then they are a good indicator of this skin type.

The next step is to decide if you want to be blonde or brunette—this will help determine what shade of hair color works best for your features. Brunettes have more depth than blondes do; therefore choosing that option will give depth to someone with light eyes and pale skin coloration as well as adding warmth without overwhelming them too much.”

Determine your skin tone.

To determine your skin tone, look at the veins on your wrist. If they’re blue or purple, you have cool tone skin. If they’re green, you have warm tone skin. A neutral tone will look blue-green. This can change depending on how much sun exposure you get as well—if you spend a lot of time in the sun, you may get more golden tones and even freckles! Your ethnicity will also play a role here: if you’re Caucasian or Hispanic and tend to tan easily instead of burn when exposed to UV rays (as opposed to Asians who tend to get darker), then most likely this indicates that you have warm undertones in addition to being Caucasian or Hispanic.

Choose a color that contrasts with your skin tone.

For cool skin tones, you want a color that is cool and light. Cool hair colors are usually shades of ash blond, platinum blonde or dark brown. These types of hair colors will make your face look more slender and elongated, making you look younger.

For warm skin tones, choose a warm hair color that’s not too bright or red as these can make your face look rounder and fuller. Blonde highlights are also recommended if you have a warm skin tone because they help to bring out the best features in your complexion while still making sure that the overall appearance isn’t too harsh or edgy-looking on camera (especially if this is an important event!).

Try out a bold color.

If you’re feeling bold, try out a bold color! You can go with an edgy look that will make you stand out in the crowd. Try a rose-gold or a bright blue color that brings out your eyes. There are so many options for hair colors nowadays, so there’s no excuse not to have fun. If you don’t like it, it will grow back in no time!

Use highlights to frame your face.

If you have warm skin tones, use colors like gold, caramel and honey to frame your face. If you have cool skin tones, use ash, platinum or even beige to frame your face. Blondes can use pale yellow or cream as highlights to brighten their complexion.

Use dark hair color only if you want to cover up grey hairs or dye your hair darker than it is naturally. If not, it will look unnatural on you and make you look older than what’s in style right now.

With just a few tips and tricks, you can have the perfect hair color for your skin tone!

The best way to find the right color for your skin tone is by looking at it as a whole. You want to make sure that your hair color complements and enhances your skin, but also doesn’t clash with it or make it look dull.

The easiest way to do this is by choosing a tone that’s close to what you already have naturally. If you can find one that matches with your natural coloring, then you’re in luck! The less work on your part, the better—and there are enough different ways out there to find something perfect for you!
