THIS IS HOW YOU CHOOSE THE CORRECT HAIR COLOR FOR YOUR SKIN TONE

Choosing the right hair color is not always easy. Of course, you will be extensively advised with us which color suits you and is feasible, but it is also useful to know in advance what suits you. Are you planning a drastic color change? Or have you just colored your hair and suddenly your make-up does not work anymore, your skin turns gray or your face turns red. Then you probably do not have the right hair color.

TIP: Skin tone and undertone are not the same thing!

Unfortunately not every hair color suits everyone. There are a number of factors that determine whether a color is good or not good for you. Be aware of your skin color. Do you have a cool or warm undertone? For example, if you have a lot of redness in your face, you better stay away from warm tones. We have written below the do’s and don’ts of each hair color and complexion. Of course, you can always contact us for extensive advice. Plan an appointment for this so that we can be sure that we can take the time you deserve.

TIP: This way you discover what kind of undertones your skin has!

To quickly determine if your skin has a cool or warm undertone you can do the following test. Turn your hand with your palm and wrist upwards. If your veins have a bluish color, then you have a cool undertone in the skin. If your veins tend to green, you have a warm undertone. Both greenish and blueish, you have a mixed undertone and every color will suit you. Hoera!

Black
Under the warm black tones, we understand Mocha, Cocoa, and very dark brown tones. If you have light skin but still want to go for black make sure you choose a black tone with a warm undertone as mentioned above. For example; a bluish black will complement a reddish skin tone. You don’t have to go this radical. You can also choose a Dark Coffee Balayage.

Even if you have a darker skin tone you still have to consider wich undertone your skin has. Unless you have a skin color with a very cool undertone then choose a warmer black shade, otherwise, your skin color may inadvertently look gray.
