Many people miss the fact that hair color directly depends not only on style or personal preferences, but also on the color type. Let's take a look at how to choose the right hair color at home, taking into account the shade of the eyes and skin.

Initially, it so happened that all the girls were conditionally divided according to the seasons. Please note that mixing types is possible, this is normal, it is even a little easier for such young ladies, because they can use colors for painting from several options at once.

Appearance color type Spring

Girls with a light type of skin and eyes, as well as hair, belong to the Spring color type. They are the easiest to create light and cute images. In most cases, girls of this type of appearance are real blondes with golden curls or with a slight hint of red. This, by the way, is the rarest type of appearance.

Main advice in this version: do not overload your appearance with heavy and dark contrast. There should be a simple and light make-up, light basic tones of clothing. With the greatest desire to radically change, all the same, the black color will make the face gray and uninteresting, and perhydrol white will look very unnatural.

Another feature of these girls is that their hair, in any case, has individual strands that are somewhat lighter than the total mass of curls. If they do not stand out too much, then ask the hairdresser for advice on how to unobtrusively shade them. In addition, coloring is now back in fashion, so you can safely use this trend.

Spring is only for warm colors.- this is a golden palette, soft reddish shades, sandy or light blond. But there are exceptions, for example, the most prominent representative of this category is Marilyn Monroe, and she became known as a natural blonde. So, if you are a happy owner of very pale, even porcelain skin, then you can safely paint in silvery tones.

Summer Girls

Most of the representatives of Leto complain that they have a very ugly natural hair color, and they try in every possible way to correct this natural flaw. For clarification: this category appearance determined by these features.:

• very cold skin tone, almost blue-white;
• there is a contrasting summer and not a contrasting summer, the first option is relatively dark hair and porcelain skin, the second - light skin and a light cold shade of strands (for example, Ksenia Sobchak);
• the eyes are light, sometimes streaked with blue or green.

Most often the best option for hair coloring 2015 is an ash color, it will beautifully shade the skin and give the appearance of some mystery. We categorically do not recommend using warm light colors (and this also applies to clothes), this will only aggravate the situation. Instead of a bright blonde, you get a completely uninteresting girl with a face merging with curls.

In case you decide change into red hair, particularities must be taken into account. This is one of the richest colors in its shades. The best solution to the problem will be red-blue or even yellow-red, i.e. bright and cold colors at the same time. Henna is often used for coloring.

Another feature of Summer girls is that they are all born real blondes, and when they grow up, their hair insidiously changes to a darker one. This can be easily corrected by painting in a very light color, but in no case with shades of yellow. Also, summer ladies with platinum curls just look amazing.

What to choose for your face:

Skin with freckles and a peach tint will not work with flashy black hair dye, it will give it an earthy tint, a strange brown tint. A similar effect will be from white paint, it contrasts too much with relatively dark skin.

The best option- all kinds of shades of brown: this is chocolate, and red and even burgundy. In addition, red curls look very beautiful on girls with freckles. A feature of Autumn is that she either does not have a blush at all, or it is not expressive, so redness can compensate for such an inexpressive face. Even a very sharp carrot orange will look appropriate.

Human skin and hair are colored with the same substance, melanin pigment. Therefore, skin tone and natural hair color are combined in a natural way: as a rule, blondes have light skin, brown-haired women have a honey tint, and brunettes have olive skin. In order not to disturb this natural balance, the ideal hair dye should be the same color as the natural strands, but 1-2 tones darker or lighter. However, often the desire to change appearance and trying something new makes us dream of a hair color that is just the opposite of natural.

Of course, it is possible to completely change the “suit”, often this only benefits the image and allows you to discover new sides in yourself. But, before applying the dye to the hair, it is necessary to carefully approach its choice. The wrong hair color can age, emphasize skin imperfections, turn a pleasant face into a nondescript, too simple or gloomy one. Check out these hair color tips to help you avoid the most common mistakes.

Tip one. The main rule to follow when choosing a hair color is compliance with the principle of skin and hair compatibility according to the scheme "warm skin tone - warm hair tone" or "cold skin tone - cold hair tone". With a cool skin tone, shades like ash blond, Scandinavian light blond, ice chestnut, eggplant and blue-black are combined. With warm - colors with a copper, honey or reddish tint. At the same time, almost all shades of red are very suitable for white-skinned and pink-skinned women.

Tip two. Do not forget that very blond hair is not suitable for owners of copper or olive skin and initially chestnut hair - it looks unnatural, but color using different shades with a run of 3-4 tones will look very impressive. With light transparent eyes, a darker hair color that creates contrast is preferable to light. Combining hair and eyes, you should also follow the rule “warm to warm, cold to cold” - golden and honey-chestnut shades are suitable for brown, hazel, green eyes, ash-brown, platinum blond for blue and gray.

Tip three. If you want to wear very dark or very light hair, pay close attention to the condition of your skin. A radical hair color will emphasize everything that you might want to hide - imperfections, post-acne,. Of course, hunting is worse than bondage, and what is far from ideal can always be disguised with cosmetics, but think carefully about whether you need such a dependence on foundation, concealer and powder, especially in summer?

Tip Four. If possible, aiming for darker or more fair hair, don't change in one moment- this is not only harmful to the hair (and mental health relatives), but will also create problems that are difficult to solve in case of failure. Change your hair color gradually, 1-2 tones at a time.

Tip five. When choosing a new hair color, consider not smiling models on paint packages, but palettes with swatch strands or tone names. Many manufacturers indicate whether the paint has a warm or cold shade. If you want to cover a lot of gray hair, it's better to lean towards a lighter solution: the dark one looks less natural, especially when the roots grow back. A light ash or wheat shade will gently replace gray hair. Do not forget that hair dye reaches its maximum efficiency on gray hair, so it is better to refuse red and red tones, unless, of course, you are striving for a photographic resemblance to Vivienne Westwood.

Tip six. Hair dyes with varying degrees of durability open up different possibilities - depending on the degree of their washability, you can “try on” a new tone with different consequences and perspectives.

Temporary dye, the tinting agent will not completely change the appearance, but will allow you to make the hair color deeper or give the blond hair an interesting shade. The instability, which is its plus, can also become a minus - such products are washed off in the rain, stain bed linen and towels.

Semi-permanent (semipermanent) dyes act on the surface of the hair without penetrating into its structure. Gentle for hair and scalp, but do not always bring the expected result. But they are washed off after about six weeks.

Means "tone-on-tone"- a transitional link between semi-persistent and resistant paints. Their low or no ammonia formula does not lighten the hair, but makes the natural color richer and brighter. When choosing between two shades of tone-on-tone dye, take a lighter one - usually the result of using ammonia-free paints is somewhat darker than expected.

Persistent (permanent) dyes, which contain ammonia, which lifts the hair cuticle so that the pigment penetrates under the scales. They provide a long-term result, but negatively affect the structure of the hair. The use of persistent dyes must be combined with care procedures for hair and scalp.

Useful tips, sorry, I didn’t know them 10 years ago :) I was a blonde, redhead, brunette ... I didn’t do everything very competently and my hair suffered a lot. Now, at the age of 29, I firmly decided never to paint again and to do a gentle bio perm on healthy hair, I have been holding on for the second year :))

Thank you very much helpful tips. Last year I'm just in search of something new, but somehow I don't really like all my experiments. My natural color is brunette for a long time I was highlighting and I really liked it, but by highlighting I ruined my hair. :(Now I want to pick up some gentle paint of a light shade or with a redhead.

Good article, informative! I've always envied girls blue eyes, they can pick up almost any hair color. And I have burning brown, so nothing lighter than red will do. True, at the age of 17 I chose a dark chestnut, which looks like black, but now I generally only paint with black. And I don't even want to change anything. Very satisfied, this is mine!

Good article! Thanks! Learned a lot. Although now I go with my natural, not dyed. And before, she always painted in dark colors and in adolescence(oh horror!) in black, which does not suit me at all! Since the color type I am Summer!

Yes, the article is excellent, it is worth reading for many who want to dye their hair, but do not know what color it is. And then many of us first paint, and then they realize that this color does not suit them at all, and they don’t know what to do, so leave everything or repaint it in another.

I asked a question more than once, women were interested. Made a conclusion. It all depends on the arrangement of personal life. If not, no one wants easy, quick connections then White color the majority of those I interviewed. Dark tones - married, well-mannered, not experiencing joy from white.

I liked the article. I knew all this, they published it in space, but nevertheless, thanks to the author, for many it is informative !!! I love my hair, I dream of growing it out, but it just doesn’t work out, maybe there is an article - how to grow hair?! I will be very grateful!
