Best And Worst Hair Colours For Various Skin Tones

Beauty : Haircare

There are four main types of complexions: dark, olive, porcelain and peaches & cream – which has a lot of pink tones in it.

The correct hair colour will make your eyes shine and your skin glow, so it’s important to get it right. Follow this guideline for advice.

Darker skin is the only type that plum browns and mahogany will actually suit. Blonde is probably the worst, as it can look unnatural unless you have a big personality.

Porcelain (pale) skin suits cool, ashy blondes, whereas golden, caramel blondes and very dark shades will just drain your skin. Strong reds can sometimes look good though.

Golden, caramel blondes look great on ‘peaches and cream’ skin, but steer clear from ashy, champagne shades as they will make your skin look dull. Rich reds and chestnut browns just highlight the redness in your skin, so aren’t very flattering.

Olive skin is the most versatile, because it suits rich, chestnut browns, although ashy, champagne blonde and other pale shades aren’t so good and will just make your skin look yellow.
