I'd like to change my hair color, I have pale pinkish skin and green eyes, what color do you reccomend?

Question

-My skin is a pale, porcelain with pinkish undertones.

-I have green eyes that turn very light green in bright light, and dark green in normal lighting... the green is a yellowish green.

-My natural color is a cool brunette

I'd like to change my hair color, possibly lighter, and I DO NOT want to go red, it looks horrible with my skin tone.

Do you reccomend a light brown, dark blonde, blonde etc???

I will be going to a hair stylist, I just want to see what colors you all reccomend.

Answer 1

You sound just like me, except my hair is naturally dark blonde. Actually, I just got highlights today :) I've been getting them for a couple years now, and I'm still very happy.

Anyhow, from what you said, I think a "cool blonde/darker blonde" might look really good! I also have pinkish undertones so I try to stay away from any shades of red/strawberry blonde.

If you're not comfortable with going completely blonde yet, maybe you could try some lighter highlights with your brown hair. That'd look really cute too. I'd suggest going to a professional for suggestions, and also, if you do plan on lightening your hair significantly, please please please get it done in a salon. It's more difficult to lighten dark hair and it is to darken light hair.

Good luck!

Answer 2

I would thhink a dark blonde. It's strange that you say red doesn't work for you, as that was the first color that I though of when you said what your coloration was. You might want to try something like a dark blond with some highlights that would bring out that pink skin tone. Usually people with green eyes look better in some kind of mix of blond and red.

Answer 3

I would say go with a light brunette. The reason I am recommending this color is because it will definitely bring out your eyes. Brunettes with green eyes usually pop out more compared to blondes with green eyes (the colors end up balancing out each other and end up losing pop). I would also reccomend a darkish blonde, but I think a light brunette would be better. it would go great with green eyes (beautiful contrast) and would suit your skin!

Answer 4

I would recommend talking to a hairdresser. They can best assist you with a haircolor that will compliment your skin tone. They can also professionally dye your hair so there are no reddish tints in it. Many boxed hair colors, when you go lighter, bleach your natural color to a certain extent and this can lead to the natural red (that is otherwize hidden in your hair) to appear. You may also wish to try on some wigs of different colors to see what color you would like to be. Your beautiful green eyes would go with any haircolor.

Answer 5

A warm chocolate brown really complements green eyes and a paler skin tone. The warmth of the colour means it will have some shimmering red and golden tones as well, which will look great in winter!

Answer 6

you should deffinently dye it red. i dont think there is anything more flattering to pale skin and green eyes. i know i am pale with green eyes and i always seem to go back to it because it just brings out my eyes and brightens up my skin.
