Proper Hair Color for Your Skin Tone

When you have the perfect hair colour, it’s easy to create an effortless look no matter your hairstyle. Choosing what hair colour is perfect for you can sometimes be easier said than done, however, and the wrong choice can bring your look down. To ensure this doesn't happen to you, remember the one golden rule - always match your colour to your skin tone - and give these hair colour hues a try!

Blonde

Ash blondes and any hue that has a hint of honey in it are as warm as you should go when it comes to a blonde shade that will team well with your skin tone. Anything too golden could pick up and enhance any pink undertones that your skin may have and give you a finished result that is too warm. Balance is the key for a great blonde look.

Brunette

When it comes to a brunette color though, a bit of warmth is recommended. Golden browns are your best bet when it comes to creating a striking balance with your warm skin and hair hue. How warm you should go all depends on the undertones of your individual complexion, so if you’re not sure then visit your salon for a color consultation first.

Red

For a great red hue, it’s best to avoid anything that will enhance the pinkish undertones of your pale cool skin and get acquainted with shades that are copper, amber or warm based in color. If your pink undertone is minimal then you can give rosy reds a try.
