How to choose the right color
The right specialist will always help you choose the right shade, because among the rich palette of hair colors "Loreal Preference" you can easily get lost. Moreover, an experienced stylist knows all the nuances of dyeing for each type of hair, so he can tell you how to achieve the desired result.
For example, if the owner of dark hair decided to become a blonde, then at one time this effect is impossible to achieve. Before you dye your hair in the right shade, they should be discolored. But for light blond hair, the procedure is much simpler, and the shades of the blonde when stained will look very natural and fresh.
The most difficult thing is to turn the owner of the firehorn into a blonde. Natural red strands are not immediately discolored, often it has to be done in two or three stages. And even after that, when staining, there is a risk of yellowness. To avoid this effect, you should choose a pearl, platinum or ashy shade.
For girls with dark hair from the Loreal Preference hair color palette, it is better to choose bright shades in red colors. This will make the color of the strands brighter and more saturated. Owners of blond hair, on the contrary, should stay away from such flowers.
The choice of paint should also be in harmony with eye color and skin tone. So, with pale skin and blue eyes, ash and light brown shades are perfectly combined. And with brown eyes, a black or dark brown tone is perfect. You can also try the "deep chestnut" (tone 4.01) and "light amber" (tone 6.35).
For swarthy and blue-eyed girls, a color called “light blond beige”, number 05 is suitable. Owners of beautiful green eyes should pay attention to “Grenada mahogany” under number 4.56.
But the gray-eyed girls were lucky the most: they fit without exception the palette of hair dye “Loreal Preference” - from 92 “Iridescent Blond” to “Black” at number 1.0.
