🌈 How to Choose the Right Hair Colour Shade for You Have you ever walked into a salon, scrolled endlessly through Pinterest, or stood in front of hair colour boxes at the store feeling totally confused? You’re not alone. Choosing the right hair colour can be tricky – but with a few simple tips, you can find your perfect shade confidently . ✨ 1. Know Your Skin Undertone Your skin undertone plays a huge role in how a hair colour looks on you. Warm undertones Veins appear greenish, gold jewellery flatters you more, and your skin glows with shades like: Golden brown Caramel Copper Warm reds Cool undertones Veins look bluish or purplish, silver jewellery suits you better, and your skin lights up with: Ash brown Cool chocolate Burgundy Plum tones Neutral undertones You’re lucky – most shades work on you! Balance bold or natural hues with your hair's base colour. ✨ 2. Think About Your Natural Hair Colour Staying within two shades of your natural hair colour usually looks more flattering and grows out gracefully. But if you're feeling bold: Try balayage or face-framing streaks Add highlights or lowlights to keep your look dynamic Always complement (not overpower) your base tone ✨ 3. Match with Your Lifestyle and Vibe Ask yourself: ✔ Do I want low maintenance or am I okay with touch-ups? ✔ Should my look be natural or bold ? ✔ Will this colour fit my work setting and personal style ? 🔄 Tip: Busy lifestyle? Go for colours that don’t require monthly salon visits like soft browns, muted reds, or gloss shades. ✨ 4. Always Do a Strand Test Especially if you’re colouring at home! Why? Hair texture affects colour absorption A strand test shows the exact result before full application Saves you from unexpected oops moments 💡 Product Recommendation For home colouring, I personally recommend : L’Oréal Paris Casting Crème Gloss ✅ Ammonia-free ✅ Leaves hair shiny and soft ✅ Easy to apply (even if you're a beginner) ✅ Fades naturally without harsh lines Shade suggestions: "Chocolate" – for warm undertones "Burgundy" – for cool undertones ❤️ Final Thoughts At the end of the day, hair colour is self-expression . Whether you go for: Subtle browns for elegance Bold reds for impact Pastels for fun... Choose what makes you feel beautiful and confident . 💬 Let’s Chat!
