Virtually all can wear auburn hair color!

Kristen Stewart, (Twilight) showed up with an auburn hair color last night on David Letterman. She was there to plug the newest Twilight saga “Eclipse,” and looked rather stunning with her new auburn hair color. A change of hair color does her well and auburn hair color was the key.

“Auburn Hair Color, a Classy Look on Most”Actually, auburn hair color is a hair color that works for nearly everyone! To make it work, it’s a matter of matching the tone of the hair color (the shade darkest to lightest) and the balance of cool or warmth with the skin tone.

Auburn hair color is a blend of red and brown. The color can be mixed to take on more brown than red tones or vice versa. Also the brown can be in the cool tones (ashy, chocolatey) or warmer tones like (chestnut, golden brown.) The same is true with the red hair color used; it can be cool (burgundy) or a warmer red like (tomato?) Also the depth or level from light to dark auburn hair color varies to give auburn hair color its distinct look.
The auburn hair colors on these celebrities show a wide range of warm and cool tones from light to dark. I think all these stars look great with an auburn hair color and they have a multitude of different skin tones . . . what do you think?

6 weird hair ideas to think over!

I’m kinda bored today with hair news and need a change from the same old, same old . . . hairstyles, hair products, hair color, hair extensions, updo’s, downdo’s, whatever . . . so here are some weird hair tidbits to ponder instead! (Aren’t we hairdressers really weird after all?)

“Weird Hair From Around the Globe”Yes, it is weird hair headphones! If you’ve got a streak of the ‘unusual’ in your personality, you might enjoy a pair of human hair headphones twisted and braided into its own concoction, designed by Lim Feu at a 09’ Paris Fashion Week . . . guess he was getting bored too!

But not as bored as this guy . . . Robert Masciave goes Avant-Garde!

I actually would love some Hermes/Paris silk scarves like these to extend a summer braid!

How about those hairy lips!

Don’t forget the shoes, the shoes, the shoes!!

And my favorite, because I’m a lover of music . . .

Jessica Alba- cool blonde highlights

What shades won’t look horrible with my skin tone?

Hi Laura:

I think Jessica Alba is a good choice to look at for you when considering a hair color change such as you are.  From the above description I think you fall into the ‘cool’ category as does Jessica Alba. That doesn’t mean your skin tone has the same depth of color, but you both still have cool skin tones, cool natural hair colors and cool eye colors.

Consider highlights rather than an all over color to lighten your hair! My eye says Jessica looks much better when she stays closer to her natural hair color than going too light. My favorite hair colors for her are the chestnut browns with mostly cool (and some warm) highlights. These hair colors compliment her skin tone and eyes best. Darker hair compliments blue and brown eyes better than a light blonde hair color.

The best way to go lighter with your hair is by first placing two or more shades of highlights around your face. Keep your highlights within two shades of your own natural hair color and it will suit you more naturally. Two or more shades of highlights will add dimension. Start slow and see what you like best. You’ll hear compliments if your hair colorist gets it right.

Don’t make the mistake of opting for such a drastic hair color change all at once (from your dark brunette to an all over blonde!) This especially holds true as you have never colored your hair before. Slight changes with hair color can make a big change in your appearance and not compromise the health of your hair as an overall lightening would.

Another big thing to consider when choosing a new hair color is the time and $$ you are willing to spend on upkeep. To go an overall blonde, you will need a root touch-up every 4 to 6 weeks. By highlighting you can go possibly 2 to 3 months between tough-ups!

I don’t recommend the over-all blonde for you. I think it could wash you out, like it does on Jessica Alba above. Opt instead for the more natural looking highlights, no more than two shades lighter than your own hair color and I think it will be just what you’re looking for!
