Because of how our hair grows from the roots, choosing the right hair colour tone can be challenging. Naturally, most of us have neutral hair colours such as brown and black that require long hours of the colouring process. So, how do the two hair colour tones differ? Here’s how:

Warm hair colour tones have red, orange, and yellow pigments dominating the colour, whereas cool hair tones have blue, green, and violet pigments as the dominant colour. These represent the basics of hair colour theory.

How to Choose the Right Hair Colour Tone?

When most Singaporeans have dark brown hair, it might seem impossible to see yourself in a different hair colour. However, you can opt for a combination of warm and cool tones to achieve your desired hair colour. Here’s how you can choose the right tone.

Determine your skin tone

Knowing your skin tone is crucial to understanding which hair colour tone will work for you. One way to do so is to look at your veins in a well-lit room. If your veins appear bluish, you may have a cool undertone. If it appears greenish, you may have a warm skin tone.

Another way to determine your skin tone is by going into a well-lit room with zero makeup. Check if you look better with warm tone colours like yellow, orange or peach or cooler tones like blue, green or violet.

Choose your hair colour

If you have fair skin with cool undertones, choosing warm tone hair colours will balance your skin tone. Meanwhile, if you have fair skin with warm undertones, going for a cool tone hair colour will give your skin a natural flush.

For those of you with tan skin and warm undertones, opting for coppery shades will bring out the shine in your skin. If you have tan skin with cool undertones, selecting rich colours like red or brown will define your facial features.

Opt for professional help

We all know that colouring your hair at home is much cheaper and faster than at a hair salon. However, what you don't get at home is professional advice and ways to maintain your hair colour properly.

By opting for professional colouring, you get better colour recommendations and more hairstyling options, as the hair stylists are well-trained and know what to look for to ensure you achieve the desired outcome.
