Having the right hair color makes such a big difference in how you look, which is why figuring out the best hair color for your skin tone is so important. Have you ever wanted to try a blonde or orange hair color but once you do it makes your skin look dirty or gives you a weird looking tan that you didn’t have with your natural hair color? Why is that? why can everyone rock blonde hair but not you, right? Wrong! there is a blonde out there for your skin you just need to find it, so how do you go about doing that?

Steps To Finding The Right Hair Color For You

Step 1: Determine whether you have warm or cool skin- This is important because if you aren’t sure what skin type you have you might end up getting a hair color that washes out your skin and makes you look extremely pale and blotchy, or a hair color that makes you look extremely tanned!

Warm skin tones can fall into two categories: autumn and summer.

Cool skin tones can fall into two categories: winter and spring.

Confused? how in the heck are you suppose to know which season you fall under? let’s talk about YOU and figure out which category you belong in!

The easiest most accurate method for finding out which skin tone you are involves applying a small amount of pink based cream foundation on one cheek, and a small amount of yellow on the other, spread the foundation evenly on each cheek until they form a thin layer. Next, look at which one blends in vs. which looks painted on. The one that blends is your match.

Pink means COOL, yellow means WARM.
