02 Why
Why it works.
Hair frames your face. Light, cool color matches your coloring, while golden or very dark color tends to read heavier.
Do
Stay light and cool. Ask for soft ash blonde or light cool brown, kept low in contrast.
Skip
Deep black and orange-gold tones tend to read louder than this season.
Light and cool, no gold.
Soft highlights, close to my natural color.
Walk in with a shade that has a name.
