Whenever you consider changing your hair color, you must first think of how your desired shade will look with your skin tone. With the help of your hair colorist, and reading the following, you can easily find the right hair color.
Find Your Skin Tone
There are different skin tones—deep, warm, and cool—that can appear on all shades of skin. You can tell if you have a deep skin tone if the veins on your wrist cast a purplish tint. You will also look great in brightly-colored clothing, as well as darker purples and reds. Warm skin tones will have greenish-looking veins on their wrist. They look best in naturally-toned clothing, like beige and deep brown. Cool skin tones will have blue veins in their wrists, and they can pull off white and ivory clothing, along with pink or coral colors.
Find Your Skin Shade
Skin shades can vary all over the world; however, there are a few basic skin shades in hair and beauty salons. Fair, medium, olive, and dark skin shades are the basic shade labels. These skin shades can also vary depending on individual skin tone. With these skin shades and skin tones in mind, you can more easily find out what hair color will look best on you. When in doubt, though, consult your hair colorist to find the appropriate color.
Find Your Hair Color
Just as there are diverse skin tones and shades, there are countless hair colors available. For example, someone with a fair skin shade and warm tone would look best with a honey or darker-colored blond. With a cool skin tone and fair skin, platinum and lighter-colored blonds do well. Medium-colored skin shades can pull of a variety of hair colors, from blond to dark browns. Olive shades look beautiful with dark browns and ebony hair colors. Dark skin shades should strive for hair colors different from their skin to diversify facial features.
