Choosing the right hair colors for warm skin tones is just as important as choosing the right shade of foundation for such skin shades. The beauty arena has progressively expanded its range of products from makeup to hair care to make warm skin-toned beauties feel inclusive.

Moreover, it is important to choose hair colors that complement one’s skin tone in the same way as one chooses clothes that flatter their skin tone. There are three types of undertones when it comes to skin tones wherein warm undertones comprise golde, yellow, and peach hues, cool undertones comprise pink, red, and blue hues and neutral undertones are a mix of warm and cool hues.

While hair color and balayage add texture and change the overall look of people with warm skin tones, it is important to know which hair colors suit one's skin tone before booking a salon appointment.


4 Best celebrity-approved hair colors for warm skin tones

Knowing what works and what doesn't for them is the first step for undertones when selecting the color for your hair. Warm undertones hinting at copper, honey brown, chestnut, golden brown, and blonde shades with brown mixed in go well with hair colors with golden, orange, and red tones.

On the other hand, shades that have hues of silver or white must be avoided by warm skin tones. Even though icy blonde and grey colors are trending, they are a big no for people with warm undertones. Rather than making warm skin tones seem better overall, these tints will make them look duller.

From haircuts to hair dyes, there is no better salon inspo than celebrity references. Here are some celebrity-approved hair colors that flatter warm skin tones:

Jeniffer Lopez's Cozy Blonde

On the Floor singer, Jennifer Lopez has a warm skin tone and she has got beauty enthusiasts and salon experts raving about her cozy blonde hair shade.

This shade makes the face appear bright and is a soft hue at the same time.


Chrissy Teigen's Spicy Ginger shade

Money pieces are the strands of hair around the face that appear brighter. Spicy ginger is ideal for people who love dark smudged roots.

The Beyoncé blonde
