Match your hair color to your skin tone. For cold tones (pink, with blue, green and gray tints), ash blond and dark tones with burgundy notes are suitable. For owners of warm skin tones, golden colors are suitable. It's always easier to get a little darker than lighter.
If a new shade of hair looks gorgeous on Jolie, it is not a fact that it will make you a beauty. You are not Jolie. Humble yourself. To know what color to dye your hair, recognize your color type.
The cold color type is characterized by olive and pinkish undertones, a porcelain skin tone and an aristocratic ivory tone. For warm - golden, beige, yellowish or dark skin.
Here are three tips on how to recognize your color type.
- Look at the veins at your wrist. Their color is the main indicator of skin type. A purple or bluish tint indicates a cool hue. Greenish - to warm.
- Look into your eyes. If the iris of the eyes is with golden brown spots, then the skin is warm. "Sparkles" blue-green or gray-blue - cold.
- Test with gold and silver. Choose two pieces of jewelry (not necessarily precious, any silver or gold metal). Place on your arm in natural light. Forgetting your preferences, evaluate which one looks more harmonious. Gold is a warm shade. Silver is the opposite.
Always stick to the warm to warm, cold to cold rule.
What hair color is suitable for blondes
The best hair dye for blondes is naturally natural tones: wheat, honey, gold, caramel. These colors refresh the face and visibly rejuvenate it.
- For pale transparent skin, a cold blond with a tint of platinum, ice, ash, silver, beige or champagne is suitable.
- If you are dark or have a healthy blush, golden and honey-chestnut shades are your strong point.
The nordic blond will add age and accentuate the circles under the eyes. Be careful with him!
Impose a strict taboo on radical coloring. A maximum of two shades lighter or darker. Otherwise, the overgrown roots "give you away with giblets" and they look sloppy.
How to choose a paint color for redheads
Blond with a gold sheen, carrot or dark rusty, coppery gold? Consider skin and eye tones to find the right one.
- Light-skinned and blue-eyed are suitable for light overflows. Here it is, the image of a real angel!
- Brown-eyed and green-eyed - this is your hour! You are extraordinarily showy with fiery red hair or mahogany hair.
- The dark-eyed is the easiest. Any variation of red will do.
- Red hair will make freckles or subtle blemishes visible.
- Carrot - a categorical "NO" for ruddy girls.
- Red and yellow hairstyle (sorry, ladies) will make women of Balzac age funny. It is better to choose naturally redhead (from minus 3 to minus 5 years).
Avoid overly bright colors, otherwise you will "smear" the effect.
How to choose hair color for brunettes
The palette of colors for brunettes is wide: chocolate, chestnut, cognac-caramel, mocha, eggplant, blue-black. How not to be mistaken? Look at your complexion and eye color.
- Light-skinned ladies with dark eyes will give softness to a purple hue and chocolate.
- Dark-eyed women with brown eyes need to choose warm shades: milk chocolate, caramel and hazelnut.
- Dark-haired gray-eyes should avoid dark shades. Who needs + 5 years for age? In their case, partial staining with dark paint is encouraged.
Bluish black is not the best option if you want to look younger. It will easily add 10 years.
But if you dilute the rich black with warm chocolate shades, you will look harmonious. And mocha will certainly "knock off" 4-5 years. Especially for owners of dark skin.
Chestnut is the perfect hair color that suits almost everyone:
- for a ruddy face, dark chocolate, chestnut, mocha or walnut is just that;
- for a pale face - shades of caramel, honey, cinnamon and amber. They will perfectly smooth out flaws!
When choosing a paint, consider not the models on the packages, but the palettes with the sample strands or the names of the tones.

What paint to paint over gray hair
In order not to tint gray hair once a week, remember the 3 golden rules:
- Lean towards a light tone. The wheat shade will gently replace the gray. Minus 7 years is guaranteed to you!
- For soft and fluffy hair, choose a tone-on-tone paint. For hard ones - 1-2 tones darker (their texture will allow fewer molecules to pass through).
- If there is a little gray, try toning. If there is a lot, dye all your hair with cream paint, following the advice of the instructions.
Looking for a long lasting color for gray hair? Leave the paint 10 minutes longer than indicated on the package.
Stay beautiful and young!
