How to Choose an Unnatural Color to Dye Your Hair

Nowadays, colored hair is very popular among the Youth.
Once people start dying their hair, it is easy to want to continue to dye their hair in more non-traditional ways. Here are some suggestions of how to choose the perfect color for you.

1. Considering warm and cool categories.
Cool and warm categories are based on your skin tone, eyes, and natural hair color. People in the cool category will have deep brown eyes, hazel eyes, gray-blue, or dark blue eyes whereas golden brown, green, green-blue, turquoise, and hazel eyes with gold or brown flecks are considered warm.

The cool Category includes:

• Very dark skin and olive skin tones
• Medium skin tones, both with color and without color in the cheeks, and medium skin with golden undertones
•  Pale skin with pink undertones, or pale skin with no color in the cheeks

The warm category includes:

• Brown skin with pink undertones, brown skin with golden undertones, pale skin with peach or gold undertones, freckled skin, and ruddy skin

2. Determine what looks best for your category

Cool category:

• Gold, yellow, red, and bronze tones in the hair are hard to achieve

Warm category:

• Shiny black hairs, ash browns, and cool blonds work well. They also may be easier to dye over your natural hair color.
• Darker colors work best
• Warm browns, chestnuts, auburn shades, golden browns, gold and red highlights, and golden blond colors would complement your skin tone and eye color well.

3. Learn how the color wheel affects hair dye.

• Complementary colors fall on opposite ends of the color wheel. If you dye your hair a complementary color, you may end up with a totally different color than you expected.
• If you have undertones you want gone, you'll have to pick a color to neutralize these tones

4. Choosing a Color Based on the Season or Location

 

Summer:

 is the brightest season and is known for a lack of heavy clothing. Many people tend to go for the obvious colors: orange and blonde. These are warm colors, but they don’t fully represent the “bright” spectrum. Shades of blue can work well for the sunny season. A majority of color people experience in the summer is found in the light blue of the sky. Here’s a list of colors associated with summer that would work well as a hair color:

• Red
• Pink
• Bright Blue
• Light Magenta
• Green

 Fall:

 is the season where all the lush greenery prepares and dies for winter. During this natural process of death, nature produces an array of stunning colors. Autumn colors can better be labelled as muted warm colors.

Teal

Salmon

Brick Red

Beige

Winter:
is the time of the year when nothing grows and nature is in hibernation. The sky is typically grey and therefore your hair can reflect this with grey tinted colors. The colors of this drab season are muted but enticing. Essentially any pastel color or “icy” color can work during this season. Here is a list of “muted cool” colors of winter:

• Slate Blue
• Winter White
• Charcoal
• Mauve
• Burgundy

Spring:
 is the season of birth where everyone begins to feel the warmth again. This season is notorious for having incredible colors because of new foliage. The color pattern is similar to summer, but the tint of each color isn’t as bright as summer. This is the season of baby colors. These colors all look great in hair because they do not pop out to the eye as much
