Hair Color
From LoveToKnow Hair
Regardless of what hair style you have or which hair accessories you use, it is your hair color that will be the most noticeable part of your look. Choosing the right hair color for you is essential, whether it is a completely different color or just enhancing your natural hue with hair highlights or hair lowlights shades.
Types of Hair Colors
There are several basic types of hair color, and within those natural shades, there is much variation and room for adjustments or changes.
- Brunette Hair: This is the most common hair color and ranges from a dark sandy color to rich chocolate to a very deep, dark brown.
- Blonde Hair: Blonde hair is bright and sunny, with shades from rich golden caramel to shimmering gold to a very light, almost white platinum blonde.
- Black Hair: Truly black hair is lusciously dark but can have undertones of many different hues, including red, brown, or gold.
- Red Hair: From coppery tones to rich mahogany to elegant auburn, red shades are fiery and fantastic.
- Gray Hair: As you age, your hair loses its pigmentation and may gradually turn gray or white. Some individuals may also develop salt-and-pepper hair when some is pale and the rest has not yet been affected.
All of these shades can be found naturally, or you may want to use hair dye to create your own pleasing shade. For a truly unique look, some people even choose funky hair colors such as blue, green, or pink hair.
Changing Your Color
If you aren’t happy with you natural hair color, changing your shade is an easy and dramatic way to freshen up any style without a drastic hair cut. You could opt for blended highlights or lowlights to add texture and depth to your style, or you may want to experiment with a completely new color. Temporary hair color can help you try different shades without the risk of being stuck with a color you don’t like.
Your Best Color
Your best hair color is one you feel happy and confident with, whether it is your natural shade, subtle enhancements to your original color, or a radically different hue that feels and looks right to you. With many different hair dye and color options, there is a rainbow of possibilities to explore to find your perfect color.
