Same old hair? Bring it back to life.
I am sure it is not just my fear, I bet some of you guys are also a little scared of a color overhaul. Of course Charlize Theron looks good with blond or even chocolate hair, even long or short, or curly... She can do anything to her hair, she will still be hot. Returning to our own hair, I thought of the 3 most important steps to be considered when intending to take some breaths away.
Step 1: Rejuvenate your natural color and give it a boost.
I have heard many women say that they don't even remember what was their natural hair color. We really shouldn't get to that. Dramatic changes of hair color aren't always the way to the best look. Instead of trying to cover it up, you should try to enhance it. Talk to you hair stylist about it and he/she will help you discover the hues that are combined to give your hair its natural color.
Then choose to bring out the hue that would bring your hair a warm and rich tone. Bring out the blond if you have a light brown hair, or the red in case of dark brown.
Step 2: Get inspired
Make a quick search and discover what celebrity has almost the same hair color as you, then study how they bring out different shades and tones each season. At least that is the advice of the hair stylists and color specialists in New York.
If you decide to do that, be realistic about it. Think about the skin tone in addition to the natural hair color.
Step 3: Making it reality
Once you have decided on colors and tones, be sure to take some pictures to your hair stylist, for together you are to create a personalized look. He might also suggest enhancing some colors according to the ones that can be found in your wardrobe. Are they bold colors or pastels?

Advise your stylist to work the color into small sections of the top layer of your hair, all aroud your head.

Try something warmer and richer, like an auburn hue on a vibrant shade.

You would best ask your colorist to create highlights with a shade only around the crown of your head.
Use the highlight judiciously, because they can look overly done in dark hair.
Experiment with butterscotch or toffee shades to break up a dark mane and maybe add radiance rays.
