The New Rule For Blonde Color

The New Rule For Blondes....

Here is what I have been noticing in blonde hair color. Hair color is the number one beauty product that can take back years on your looks. If done wrong...it can sometimes age you. My job is to educate you on what is best for your hair color and skin tone.

If your a blonde, stay away from ashy tones....they make your skin look sallow. As we get older, our natural blonde locks starts to darken and get more drab and ashy in color. Our skin tone also starts to change and we loose the warmth and glow in our face. Blondes look best when they stick with warm tones. If you choose to stick with your natural base color and add highlights, go for the honey and golden highlights. Another way to add warmth to your hair is bumping up the base. What that means is lifting your natural color 1 - even 3 levels and then adding highlights. With the base warmer and a lighter beautiful honey blonde color, you can now compliment that with lighter blonde or cooler tone highlights.

The key is to have some warmth in your to add the brightness back to your face. All ash will make your skin look dull and sallow. Some people are scared of warmth...but sorry to say, but what worked for your skin tone when you were younger no longer works as you get older. Be up for the change and bring back the glow to your skin. Ask me what I can do for your blonde.
