Hey, Beauty Besties! Ever been confused about choosing a hair color to make your face look instantly fresher and brighter? Turns out, it’s not just about trendy colors, but also about matching your skin’s undertone. Let’s uncover the secrets so you don’t make the wrong choice!
Know Your Skin Undertone: The Key to Hair Color That Brightens Your Face!
When talking about hair colors that can brighten your face, the key lies in matching the hair color with your skin’s undertone. This undertone is different from the surface skin color. There are warm, cool, or neutral undertones.
This undertone determines whether a hair color will make you look radiant and fresh or dull, like you haven’t slept enough.
A Quick Guide to Choosing Hair Color Based on Undertone:
-
Dark Skin / Warm Undertone: Avoid Ash Colors!
For those with dark skin or warm undertones, it’s best to avoid colors with ashy elements. Ash colors tend to make the face look duller. The safest bet is to try dark or bold colors. Examples include:
- Dark Brown
- Magenta
- Denim Blue
-
Colors with Warm Tones Brighten the Face
If you want your face to look brighter and more ‘alive,’ choose hair colors with warm tones. These colors usually reflect light well and give a ‘glow’ effect. Try these:
- Cowgirl Copper
- Auburn
Colored Hair Care Tips to Keep it Healthy & Shiny
Found your dream hair color that makes your face even brighter? Congrats! But remember, the hair coloring process, especially with bleaching, can make hair dry and brittle. That’s why extra care is a must, Beauty Besties!
To keep your hair healthy, not dull, and the color long-lasting, here are the essential treatments you need to do:
- Regular Creambath, Mask, or Hair Spa: This is crucial to prevent further damage and maintain hair moisture. Do it once a week or once every two weeks, depending on your hair condition.
- Use Shampoo Specifically for Colored Hair: Regular shampoo can strip your hair color pigments faster. Choose a gentle formula designed for colored hair.
- Always Use Conditioner After Shampooing: Conditioner is the ‘best friend’ of colored hair. It locks in moisture, smooths, and helps maintain hair color so it doesn’t fade quickly.
- Apply Hair Serum or Vitamin: Focus especially on the ends, which tend to be dry and split. Serum or vitamins will provide extra nourishment and protect hair from damage.
- Trim Split Ends Regularly: Cut off dry and split ends every few weeks. This helps hair grow healthier and look neater.
