Love the diagonal line at the jaw! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-advice---maybe-color#post-1420501 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 22:20:20 +0000 Rebecca Mielke 1420501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have heard that actual red hair is most often found with cool skin tones. I know it is true with my one auburn-haired daughter: warm hair and eyes, cool skin. Just instinctually, I like the color you posted for you.</p> <p>Also, based on what I know of your personality type, I think you would do better than most with all-one-color hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-advice---maybe-color#post-1417853 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 19:57:42 +0000 Sara L. 1417853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it your hair used to be red, it should look okay. &nbsp;If you don't like it you can always dye it back to it's natural color. That's my philosophy on hair dying at least. &nbsp;Yes, it will cost some to dye it a second time but then you don't have to worry about growing the color out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-advice---maybe-color#post-1417837 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 19:21:42 +0000 Sheila 1417837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like hair color that is multi toned. To my eye, it looks more natural. This color maybe fine straight up but I think it may fade and become too orangey. <br />I think it is too straight toned&nbsp; as well.&nbsp; Maybe foils ? ... they can be easier to maintain as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-advice---maybe-color#post-1417813 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 18:49:48 +0000 Angie 1417813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YAY. I love the idea of new hair colour.&nbsp;</p> <p>This colour&nbsp;looks a little orange though, Amy. Too warm. I vote go a little purple/burgundy-red, rather&nbsp;than orange red, if you know what I mean.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-advice---maybe-color#post-1417812 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 18:44:13 +0000 Sveta 1417812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This red is on the cool side so it should work for you. I also use henna to color my hair and I like it much better than the chemical dyes (although of course the colors with henna are much more limited).<br />If your natural hair had red highlights in it I think red should suit you even if the natural highlights faded now. It happened to me too - interestingly red highlights were coming thrugh every time Idyed my hair - no matter which color, even ash brown! :-)<br />Go for it! After all you can always dye it another color if you do not like the results. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-advice---maybe-color#post-1417810 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 18:34:37 +0000 CocoLion 1417810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you had red hair before and liked it, why not go for it again if you are itching for a change? &nbsp;I'm not that great about assessing cool vs. warm tones, perhaps because I &nbsp;myself am a mix of the two (according to professional make up artists). &nbsp;My yay vote comes with the usual caveat about hair dye. &nbsp;Hard to maintain, expensive, hard to grow out. &nbsp;I have thought many times about going blonder but the upkeep and expense of it gives me pause. &nbsp;My niece does hair and make up for film and she told me there are people who spend $1000 a month in LA to get the most beautiful color! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hair-advice---maybe-color#post-1417735 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 15:10:10 +0000 amiable 1417735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm looking to refresh my haircut. &nbsp;It's been my intent for a while to grow it to shoulder length, and it's still not as long as I'd like, but I'm itching for a cut, and especially liking the first cut that Shannon posted in <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-hair-to-go-in-2015">this thread</a>. &nbsp;</p> <p>However, in the name of giving shoulder length hair an honest attempt, I'm planning to refrain from cutting length off&nbsp;for another several months. &nbsp;Instead I'm contemplating coloring my hair.</p> <p>I'm thinking dark red (auburn?). &nbsp;I've colored my hair that color before and loved it. &nbsp;But that was before I knew much about coloring or style or anything (not that I know much now - but it's way more than I knew back then). &nbsp;And I've aged in that time too....</p> <p>My question is whether you think this color might suit me? &nbsp;My natural coloring is midline-cool (more cool than warm, but not super cool) on the spectrum. &nbsp;My hair used to have a fair amount of natural red in it, but that has faded with age, leaving me with brown and traces of gray hair. &nbsp;I usually see red hair on people with warm, not cool complexions, and wonder if perhaps it would be a bad choice for me?</p> <p>Pic below is approximately the color I envision on someone who also seems to have a "cool" complexion&nbsp;- it's not super flaming red, but more red than brown. &nbsp;(I would dye it with henna, which I've done before, and this is about the color I think I'd achieve).</p> <p>What do you think? &nbsp;Yay=Worth a try or Nay=danger zone?</p> </p>
