You Can Use Hair Color To Brighten Your Complexion- Here's How

Admin April 30 2023

A beautifully bright, golden, sunkissed complexion is at the top of just about everyone’s beauty wishlist. A bright complexion makes you look healthier, younger, and more vivacious. It also makes your hair and eyes pop. But what if nature didn’t bless you with a golden glow or you haven’t spent much time outdoors soaking up the sun recently? You can make your complexion appear brighter by changing up your hair color.

Brightening A Fair Complexion

You need to consider more than your skin tone when choosing a hair color to brighten a fair complexion. Your eye color needs to be taken into consideration as well. If you have a fair complexion and light eyes avoid super light shades like platinum blonde. You need a bit more contrast to brighten your complexion and enhance your eyes. Try a warm sandy blonde or medium chocolate brown if you have warm skin. If your skin tone is cool some colors to consider are shades of cool copper or bronde. To compliment dark eyes with a fair complexion you need to be careful with dark colors. If you create too much contrast between your eyes and hair with your skin it will make your complexion appear paler instead of brighter. Look for shades of medium brown and blonde with honey or caramel undertones for warm skin and ashy mushroom blonde or ashy brown for cool skin. 

Brightening A Medium Or Neutral Complexion

Medium complexions never seem to completely lose their summer tan. Most keep a hint of sunkissed color year round, however, there are times that your skin can begin to look a bit dull. A rich mocha mae with blonde or copper highlights or a warm honey blonde are great colors to breathe life back into medium skin. A neutral complexion will get a great pick-me-up from just about any color you chose as long as it has golden undertones. 

Enhancing A Dark Complexion

Those who are blessed with a dark complexion will find it easy to perk up their complexion. Warm, sandy tones provide a subtle boost whereas very light or bright shades provide high contrast for a dramatic, head-turning effect. Some trendy shades of hair color for dark complexions right now are bright pinks and purples, silver, honey blonde, and light chestnut brown.
