The Right Hair Color For Your Skintone With 2022 Trends | Ellebangs

Hi everyone welcome back to my channel in today's video. We are going to be talking about hair colors that are right for your skin tones. Now i've done a few videos surrounding the subject on my channel in the past, but i want to do something. That'S a little bit more easy to understand and more to the point. So normally my videos are more teaching you how to find your skin tone um and once you know your skin tone, then like xyz looks good on you, but without um, an actual like formula or like specific example. So what i want to do in today's video is to go over the cool skin tones neutral and warm skin tones and then give two examples per skin tone, one for deeper skin tones and one for more fair skin tones. And i say that because oftentimes someone with a deeper complexion will be referred to as warm skin tones and you can absolutely have darker skin and still be cool and basically the rule. For you know, kind of complementing your skin tone is to stay within kind of the same family, all right, so first we're going to start with cool skin tones, so a classic cool skin tone, but fair skin is anne hathaway. So a good color for her is always something pretty natural. Now, when you have cool skin tone, it is already, by default a little more striking now pair, that, with the high contrast of the darker hair, lighter skin tone, you can either have a really dark hair to enhance that or to soften that look and kind of Have more of this harmony of colors to your look, that would be to add a neutral to warm, highlight or balayage now, traditionally, if your cool skin tone, you would stick to cooler tones now say you want to stay within the browns. A good option would be something like this, something that is not too reddish, not too warm, but definitely kind of softening up the coolness that you have going on all right. So next would be the cool skin tone with a deeper skin shade now here, because you have a slightly less of the contrast of hair to skin, there's a little bit more leeway so actually sticking to darker richer colors, i think, is what enhances and celebrates your Skin tone, even more or going the complete opposite like say, like a platinum blonde, which is by default, pretty cool, would absolutely be stunning, but of course that's a much edgier much more striking, look so beautiful, hair color. I would suggest for a deeper cool skin tone. Would be this right here all right, moving into neutral skin tones, and this is the one that is the most misunderstood the most under diagnosed and what i am personally myself so for years i understood cool, neutral and warm skin tones and for the longest time i Could not figure out what skin tone i was and finally, one time i was like, could i possibly be neutral? Absolutely not, and i think the reason is because my mom is very clearly a golden skin tone and my dad is very clearly cool and because of that i think i just assumed. I must be one or the other well turns out. I am neutral and the neutral celebrity i'm going to be referring to as an example today is gigi adid, so i'll give you a few little guidelines on how you identify neutral because it is kind of the more confusing one. Normally, if your cool skin tone, you know normally, if you're more golden skin tone, you also know it's more obvious in the neutral. You kind of feel, like you, have a little bit of both and so first thing to look at always is eyes, and i have hazely kind of green and some light eyes um, so that normally indicates a neutral skin tone because it is a neutral eye. Color now, naturally, i'm very fair - i just bronze and tan, and so i think i give the appearance a little bit of almost like olive skin tone and again olive skin tone is neutral because again it is a green base. So if you think of a golden skin tone, which is more yellows golds and then cool skin tone being blue, when you mix blue and yellow what do you get you get green. So that's why all the earthy tones greens and all of that just make our neutral skin tone like come alive. Now when it comes to hair color, we have a little bit more leeway. Space um, especially when we're dealing with how light or how dark our hair is the only thing you never really want to do. But again you can do if you're looking for that edgy more striking, look um, and that is to do the complete opposites of a spectrum so either completely platinum blonde or like really stark dark dark, like bluish black and in terms of suiting your skin tone. Obviously, neutral hair color is always going to look good, but we also definitely have like those golden aspects like gigi adid, with her like deep green eyes, and if you notice she always has this kind of like middle of the spectrum hair level. So she's always between say, like a level, seven and a level, nine you've never seen her platinum and you've never seen her with jet black hair and so for neutral skin tones. I'M not really going to go into a lighter or deeper skin tone because i feel like the rules are so the same, all right and now our last skin tone, which is our golden, and i feel like for the longest time golden skin tone - was the it Color and the perfect example for this one is jlo. She she is jayla with the glow, always for the last 20 years. We'Ve seen her on a red carpet. She always has that golden glow to her, and i think one of the main things. Obviously she has great skin always has, but i think the biggest contributing factor to her success with her gold is that she always always stays within her golden color range. So if you notice her hair is always always an either golden brown or a golden blonde, and then in terms of makeup, she always goes with warm warm golden tones on her skin and that's why she always just is like a harmony of color and so anytime. We'Re looking at beauty whether it be fashion, whether it's hair, whether it's makeup, whether it's a piece of art with a sculpture. There are always two aspects to art and one is the shape and the other is the color and i think color has predominantly always been more ignored and the shape so like with hair. It'S mostly like the the volume the cut, and i feel like more so in the last five ish. Dare i say, 10 years i feel like color has finally gotten its spotlight not to say that, like we didn't use color in the past or um that we didn't understand color, i just feel like it is so much more celebrated now i feel - and this is Why it gets tricky, sometimes in a salon when someone brings in a photo, and typically, if you like, that, hair most likely. It is because it is a harmony of colors that that celebrity is wearing from lighting to what they're wearing to their hair color to their makeup, and it looks good on them and again, if we were to give you the exact same hair, color literally like peel. It from their head and put it on yours. It would most likely look different, just even the hair alone next to your skin tone, but it would also give you a different look to your skin. So that's why it's so important to a finder skin tone and if you would like to learn how to better find your skin tone. If you still don't know what you are, i do have other videos that i filmed around the subject. I will leave them linked down below and if you'd like to go a little bit deeper, i've created an online beauty and lifestyle course called live and look lux and that's just one of the chapters. But basically, after taking this very simple easy course, you will become an expert in your own beauty, so i will leave a link for that down below as well and anytime. I mention my own course across social media. I always leave a discount code for you. So go ahead and check that out. So my suggestion for a light to medium skin color with a golden undertone would be this right here. Definitely a lot of worms, definitely a lot of golds, just absolutely celebrating and enhancing that beautiful natural glow that you have already and then, if you are golden skin tone with a deeper shade, this is an absolutely gorgeous color. That is not going to compete with your skin, but again just celebrate and enhance the beautiful tones in your skin all right guys, and that is all the skin tones. Hopefully, you leave this video a little inspired if you're looking to kind of change up your hair a little bit anyway. Thank you guys so much for watching. I love you and i'll see you in the next one bye, guys
