How to choose the right hair color for your skin tone?

Hair coloring is an art. Changing color can be a big decision for some people. To achieve the desired effect, it's important to find the right shade that complements your skin tone. The right hair color can completely transform your appearance and enhance your facial features. Without proper consideration, you may end up with hair that doesn't match your expectations at all.

Hair extensions are an excellent option for those who want to change color without causing damage to their natural hair. You can choose from a variety of colors and shades and opt for tones that complement your natural color or for more radical colors that will give your look an interesting shine. Fortunately, choosing the right hair color for your skin tone is not very difficult and we can help!

First, determine your exact skin tone and complexion :

Light / Pale :

The best hair colors for pale and light skin are shades of blond, platinum, gray, and beige. Tones of red, brown, and black are also suitable, but their choice depends on personal preferences. Also, pastel, golden, and even copper shades can be subtle and elegant.

Olive :

For olive skin, hair colors that range from medium blond to dark brown or chestnut are the most suitable. Soft chestnut tones and blends of auburn (red) and blonde shades are also very flattering. Dark colors like deep brown and black are good for this complexion, but avoid intense red tones and purple shades.

Dark :

Warm and intense colors are perfect for dark skin tones. Shades of brown, copper, and red are all colors that will delight this complexion. If you opt for something deeper and more intense, you may try honey and coffee tones, as they add depth to hair. Light blond, platinum and pale pink hair will give a boost to your complexion. Darker shades like dark blond, chocolate, and mahogany are also well-suited and create a beautiful and vibrant look.

Tanned :

The hair colors that match a tanned skin tone are called "brondes". These tones are between blond and brown, and are designed to provide a summery look that captures the warmth of the skin. Some popular options include dark blond, honey, caramel, beige blond, as well as darker shades like chocolate with highlights, deep brown, and copper. Think also of rich and warm colors like dark chocolate, an earthy brown, caramel brown or golden shades.

Beige :

The hair colors that suit people with beige skin include warm and neutral tones, such as platinum blond, light chestnut, warm browns, silver gray, copper and reds. More intense colors like deep black, medium brown, and moderately dark tones are also suitable for this skin type.

Once you have chosen the right hair color for your skin tone, don't forget to do a test before making your final decision. Do a test on a strand of hair to see how they behave in the light and if it's the color you expected. Never bleach your hair alone, always ask for the opinion of a professional to ensure that you don't damage your hair.
