So, as we are FINALLY getting cooler weather(except for this weekend, whats with that?), I am feeling the inspiration of fresh colors. Ok, a quick exercise: categorize yourself into one of these areas and then get ready for the craving of a new color for your locks. blonde, dark blonde, red, brunette.
Now choose your favorite look from pictures below.... and make sure if you a leaning towards something cool toned you have the skin and eyes for it(blue or blue-green are best with really cool tones), and if you have warm features(brown, hazel or green eyes, freckles, etc) go with warm tones like reds and chestnut browns. If you have a mixture of features, warm and cool, then get a friend to help by holding blues and silvers(cool tones) and oranges and golds (warm tones) see which works best for you.
All of these colors could be slight changes, or more dramatic(like a blonde to brunette or vice versa). Check out the trends. Blondes are getting more beige on the top rather than underneath. Brunettes are keeping the dark super shiny with a color gloss and then adding a slight caramel accent color from underneath. This creates interest without the hair looking too crazy. Natural looks are very in. Each one of these colors makes me want to color my hair just like theirs....HOWEVER, I will not except for maybe the redhead Isla Fischer. I can't stray too far from red :) And personally, I do not think that people look better when you can tell their color is fake. It just looks fake and you cannot see the person if the hair is too loud--thats just a little of my opinion though. Anyways, here are a few of my absolute favorite color trends: HAPPY FALL!
