Beautiful and elegant chocolate hair color suits girls with different types of appearance. But still, one person goes more than others. It gives someone brightness, freshness, and even a certain aristocracy, while others, on the contrary, visually age and somehow spoil.
That is why, before dyeing hair in the selected color, we strongly recommend consulting with a stylist. If for some reason this option does not suit the young lady, we suggest that she simply study the material below. After all, in it we have collected the most complete information about such a desired shade.
Why is color considered fashionable?
Of course, the easiest way to answer the question, formed in the headline, with the next phrase - a huge number of girls and women choose it. But that doesn’t make much sense. Therefore, we will try to understand the topic in more detail.
So, according to stylists, chocolate hair color (a photo of one of the shades shown in the picture below) is the most universal. That is, a young lady with the hair of this tone can appear at a social event, and in a club, and even go to dig potatoes. But at the same time it will look not only worthy, but also appropriate, which is also important.
Celebrities prefer it for a slightly different reason. After all, it is this color that allows you to carry out fashionable coloring on your hair, reminiscent of burned-out locks or elegant highlights. Which look beautiful and vibrant in the frame, and also very natural.
But the reviews of ordinary people describe us another significant advantage of chocolate-colored hair. They relate to the theme of diversity, which allows you to choose the warm or cold tone that suits a particular person. And this is true, because the chocolate palette has a huge number of shades. Let's consider them in more detail.
Cold chocolate tones
Most people, when talking about the color studied in the article, represent dark, almost black hair. Although in reality the palette of shades of chocolate is much more diverse. And then we will see this:
- Dark chestnut - the tone that we just mentioned is ideal for persons with light skin. It looks especially impressive in combination with bright eyes, for example, brown, hazel or green.
- Dark chocolate is a little darker than the previous shade, but it looks more natural. It will decorate a girl with dark, tanned or olive skin and bright eyes.
- Milk-chocolate hair color, rightfully considered not only very beautiful, but also a “delicious” color. After all, looking at him, you think of chocolate, cocoa or coffee with milk. It suits all young ladies, except those that have freckles and hazel or green eyes.
- Light - will be an excellent option for a person with fair skin and gray or blue eyes. Most often, he is chosen by blondes who are afraid to radically change their image, but still want to experiment.
- Ash-chocolate - a shade that significantly transforms a girl with a cold appearance: blue, blue or silver eyes and light or porcelain skin.
Warm chocolate tones
Chocolate hair color is quite original. After all, in it you can find echoes of other traditional colors: blond, blond, red, red and even black. Therefore, if a girl wants to "try on" one of them, she should first try out the chocolate gamut. In addition, such manipulations will allow you to get used to the color and not be disappointed when you see the contrast in the mirror.
So, warm chocolate tones consist of the following shades:
- Caramel is a color notable for incorporating a little chestnut and red. As a result, the shade turned out to be very bright and original. Young ladies with slightly or strongly tanned skin, distinguished by golden-brown, amber, dark-brown and hazel eyes, should choose it.
- Coffee - the tone in which the shades of brown and red intertwined, giving it incredible brightness and aristocracy. Such a color will undoubtedly adorn freckled individuals with brown or green. He also resembles dark-skinned girls with dark, almost black eyes.
- Dark chocolate is a hair color very similar to black, so many people even confuse them. But there is one significant difference between them. This shade is not as sharp as black. Therefore, it is even like blue-eyed and gray-eyed beauties.
How to choose a decent color?
We have already said that the chocolate palette is extremely rich in shades. In addition, each well-known (or not so) cosmetic company seeks to present its own tone, which will look much more advantageous than that of competitors. And accordingly, sales will be much better. That is why many girls and even adult women are scared and lost from such a variety. They can not choose the most impressive shade for a very long time and often go away with nothing. And more often they get something that later does not like at all.
