Understand how your skin tone affects which hair color will suit you

To get the best hair color for you, it’s important to understand how your skin tone affects which hair color will suit you.

There are three main skin tones: cool, warm and neutral.

Cool Skin Tones

A person with a cool skin tone will typically have blue or green eyes with light to medium brown hair that is ash in color. Their skin is fair but not so pale that they appear sickly or ghost like.

Your best choices: Red, strawberry blonde and chocolate browns work well on this type of complexion because they help enhance the look of your eyes by bringing out the blue/green hues while still complementing both yellow undertones as well as pink undertones present in those with cool complexions. You should also avoid black hues unless you’re going for an edgy style!

Consider your natural hair color vs. the hair color you want to go for

The first step to choosing the right hair color is to determine if you want to go lighter or darker. If you’re looking to go lighter, consider your natural hair color before determining if it’s possible. If you have dark brown hair, for example, you may not be able to achieve platinum blonde without using a temporary dye that will wash out in a few days.

If you decide that it is possible for your natural color to look like the one that suits you best and works with your skin tone, then great! The next step would be deciding on whether or not this change should be drastic or subtle. If so, what kind of maintenance do these different shades require?

Work out whether you want a bold, statement-making change or a more subtle one

When it comes to choosing a hair color, there are two main options: A bold, statement-making change or a subtle one. If you’re looking to make a big change, go for something that’s completely different from your natural hair color. If you want to switch things up but don’t want to go too drastic, go for something similar—but still different enough not to pass as your current shade. And lastly, if you’re unsure which route is right for you and want expert advice on whether or not this is the right choice for you, ask friends and family members what they think of the proposed changes.

Do not choose a hair color that is less than two shades lighter or darker than your natural hair color, as this is likely to make your highlights/low-lights seem unnatural.

Since highlighting and lowlighting help to enhance the natural appearance of your face, it makes sense that you would want to select a hair color that looks good on you. If the shade of your highlights/lowlights does not complement your skin tone well, then they will most likely look fake and have an unflattering effect on you.

If you’re going for a bold, statement-making change, then don’t be afraid to take it slow. In other words, try dying your hair gradually lighter or darker over time so as to get used to it – and so that those around you can get used to it too!

If you want to go blonde but have dark brown hair, test out a few shades of blonde at home first before going in headlong with an ombre look or something more dramatic.

Ask friends, family and even strangers for their opinion on which hair color will suit you best. You may be surprised by their answers!

Asking others for their opinion is a great way to get a second opinion on what you look like with various hair colors. You may be surprised at the answers!

Ask friends and family who know you well; they’ll tell you how they feel about your current color, and offer an insight into whether or not they think it’s working for you.

Ask strangers too—this can be especially useful if they don’t know who you are (or even if they do!) as people tend to be less biased this way. And remember that everyone has an opinion worth hearing—even someone who is indifferent towards someone else’s appearance might just give some good advice on which hair color suits their skin tone best!

Make sure you’re not committing to any permanent changes unless you’re 100 percent sure that they’re right for you.

If you think of dying your hair as a trial run, then you’ll feel less anxious about making a permanent change.

You can try temporary dye or even borrow a wig. If you’re going to dye your hair, be sure to take extra care of it after the process so that it lasts longer and looks better for longer.
