Winter Hair Color

Winter is almost upon us although I realize some places are so cold that it has felt like Winter for Months now.
Winter much like Summer is a great time for a little change of hair color. Unlike Summer when stylist got lighter with hair, Winter it is wise to go a little Darker/Richer. The reason being that in the Summer we tend to get more sun, lighter hair really brings out a tan. Lighter hair does the opposite in the Winter it makes your face seem more pale and tends to wash people out. Easy way to figure out if your hair color is washing you out is to consider if you are wearing more makeup now then a few months ago...We tend to over compensate with makeup when we feel washed out.
For Blondes I suggest getting some darker highlights instead of an all over color. That way you can transition back when Summer approaches, and your hair won't get fried.
For Brunettes an all over temporary color (last 6 to 8 weeks) in a rich color with copper or chestnut undertones will work best. Garnier makes a great at home temporary hair color.
