How to Choose the Best Hair Color

How to Choose the Best Hair Color


How to choose the best hair color

For skin with pink undertones

Warm tones bring out the pink in our skin so if you've got redness to your skin, go for cool tones like champagne, sandy or ash blonde, or cool browns.

For kin with yellow undertones
If your skin is olive-toned or ashy, use warm gold or reds.


How about Red?
Red is the hardest color to maintain. The shade will change almost from shampoo to shampoo so be prepared for the fade.

For natural colors
To make the hair color look natural, choose coppery-reds versus blue-reds.
Think Irish setter versus red wine.

Test it before coloring
An easy way to see, rather than guess, what color your hair will come out is to take a strand test!
Take a stand of your hair from the nape of your neck and let the hair color sit on it for 20 minutes.



Your new look
You've got the wrong hair color if your have to wear more makeup than you did before.
When the hair color works correctly, your skin tone comes alive.
Hair color should make your face glow.


When your going to the stylist
Bring pictures! "Honey" or "Chocolate" can mean very different things to different hair colorists.

Your new look
You've got the wrong hair color if your have to wear more makeup than you did before.

Hair color should make your face glow.

Special treats
Be honest with your hair colorist (and yourself) about how much time you're willing to spend having your roots touched up.
Doing conditioning treatments and more.

Options
There are high-maintenance options and low-maintenance ones.
The further away from your natural color you go the more your hair requires.



Highlights
Don't blow-dry single process highlights every single day take a rest on weekends and deep condition once a week.

Want it back

If your hair's the same color you had when you were young, think twice about tinting it. Colorists spend most of their time taking clients back to the hair color they had when they were young.

Your hair is damaged and dull
Dark hair color reflects light best, hides breakage and minimizes the flaws of abused tresses.
