This is why I don't think you should alter your natural hair color. The colors in your seasonal palette that you use for your clothing and/or makeup match and blend with the natural tones in your hair, skin, and eyes and help bring out their best qualities.Ĭool skin tones are balanced by warm hair colors and warm skin tones are balanced by cool tones in the hair. If you dye your hair you will lose some if not all of these naturally occurring tones in your hair. Brown hair can contain yellow, orange, red, red-violet, green, or blue. So, when looking at someone's hair you will see many different colors. These light waves are then registered by the human eye and are what we perceive as color. The light waves bounce off on an object and in this case, the object is our skin, hair, and eyes. None of our features are one solid or flat color but a blend of many different colors. Color is derived from light. Can you dye it to change the color if you want to? Yes, of course! However, I would like to point out that your natural hair color is designed to coordinate perfectly with your skin tone and eye color. Each element of your appearance has the exact right level of chroma (how clear or muted in tone color is) and value (depth) to harmonize with each other.

You can read more about this in my article on common color analysis myths. It is the icing on the cake and definitely contributes to your overall appearance and which colors blend with your skin tone just like your eyes do. They all contain specific variations of the colors from the color wheel in order to harmonize with each other.

Our hair, eye, and skin color are naturally designed to coordinate with each other. Not exactly, but it does play a large role in your overall coloring.
