What To Consider

Blonde can be one woman’s food and another one’s poison. While most blonde shades suit fair skin tones, it’s the dark and olive skin tones that face trouble finding the right shade of blonde. Here are some key points to think about while choosing the best blonde shade for you:

• Consider Your Skin Tone

By skin tone, I don’t just mean your surface skin tone. Focus on your skin’s undertone as well. Are you warm-, neutral-, or cool-toned? If you aren’t sure, check if earthy colors like yellow, orange, and gold suit you better than blue, purple, and silver. If yes, you lean towards the warmer side.
