      If you’re looking to change up your hairstyle, dyeing your hair is a good way to go. Whether you’re looking to turn back the clock or have determined it’s time for something new, this quiz’s mission aims to advise you on the best hair color to complete your metamorphosis.

      Should you choose to accept our mission, you’ll face five options. You could be back in black (no AC/DC knowledge required). Or, you can see if the saying that “blondes have more fun” is true. If your aesthetic prefers subtlety, step out on the town in brown. If you need to shift your gears in overdrive, rather than neutral, be ready for red. Maybe you don’t want to live by the rules anymore and need to enter a blue hair color phase to let the world know you are you!

      Regardless of why the winds of color change blew you in our direction, you don’t need to try any other quizzes to know what shade suits you best!

      What Color Should I Dye My Hair?

      "What color should I dye my hair?" The ideal answer to that idiosyncratic question depends on many factors, including personality, permanence, skin tones, natural hair shades, commitment level, and if you want to completely alter your hair, or just want highlights or lighter/darker shades. For those letting society choose for them, the most common 2021 hair colors are black and brown hair.

      The U.S. National Library of Genetics estimates 90 percent of people select those routes. Although advertising and social media comments still promote blonde as the epitome of beauty, really only two percent of the population sports a light or blonde hair color. When choosing which type and shade of hair to get, it's best to prioritize yourself first, read about potential drawbacks to new hair colors, and keep your budget in mind.

      Hair Color Ideas: What Color Should I Dye My Hair?

      Oh, the eternal hair color conundrum: to go mermaid green or not? Deciding on a fresh hair color can be as thrilling as spinning the big wheel on a game show, but it comes with its own set of "What ifs?" Right? We've all been there—flipping through magazines or scrolling down social feeds, only to end up with 17 screenshots of celeb hairdos that we're 99% sure won't make us look like the next big screen siren. But hey, that's why we're here!

      For those days when you're feeling a bit more adventurous but a smidge indecisive, we've got a few ideas that'll nudge you towards your next dazzling hair transformation. Before you take the plunge into the kaleidoscope of colors out there, remember this—every shade speaks. Yep, going ginger might whisper sweet, fiery somethings, while an icy platinum could scream snow queen with just a hint of "I woke up like this" vibes. Whatever your heart (or hair) desires, we've got a quiz that'll sort you out faster than you can say "ombre."

      Finding Your Hair's Soulmate: Choosing the Perfect Shade

      A colorful array of hair dye bottles lined up on a shelf, each displaying different shades and tones, creating a vibrant and inviting display for someone seeking their perfect hair color

      Before we dive into finding your hair's true love, remember that the ideal hair color flirts with your undertones and commits to your lifestyle.

      The Great Undertone Hunt: Skin and Hair Symphony

      Determining whether our skin's undertones are as warm as a sun-kissed beach or cool as a cucumber in a glass of iced tea is step one. Warm undertones often look best with equally warm shades like golden blondes, rich honey browns, or coppery reds. For those of us in the cool undertones camp, think about shades that sprinkle in some ash or platinum to truly dazzle. Those lucky ducks with neutral undertones have the hair color buffet at their fingertips since they can rock just about any shade.

      • Warm undertones: golden, copper, honey colors
      • Cool undertones: ash, platinum, blue or violet bases
      • Neutral undertones: a mix or match – they can pull off anything!

      Now, don't think we've forgotten our grey-seeking posse. Silver strands aren't just for gazing at the stars. If you've got cool or neutral undertones, a silver fox look might be your mane's destiny.

      Dye Hard: Picking Between Temporary, Semi-, Demi-, and Permanent Options

      Choosing how long we want our hair dye romance to last is the next saga. A temporary dye is like a fling – perfect for a weekend. Semi-permanent options will stick around for a few shampoo sessions, ideal if we're testing the waters. Feeling pretty sure about it? Take the plunge with demi-permanent, bonding for about 12-24 washes. And for a love that lasts, permanent hair dye commits to us until our hair decides to grow out or we're ready to make a bold move.

      • Temporary: Commitment-free spruce-up
      • Semi-permanent: Low-commitment option to spice things up
      • Demi-permanent: Medium-commitment for more enduring color
      • Permanent: Full-on dedication to a new look

      For those of us daring enough for an at-home dye job, just remember it's a bit like ordering furniture online – sometimes we need to read the manual twice, and occasionally it's best to call in the pros. But hey, if we end up with a hair color that's more 'creative' than 'couture', there's always hats, right? 🎩

      So, are we ready to match our inner fabulousness with an equally stunning hair shade? Let's keep this fun train rolling and find your hair's perfect match!

      Shades of Glory: Slaying Your Hair Color Style

      We're here to splash our lives with color, and what's a bolder statement than a hair transformation? It's not just about choosing a shade; it's about crafting your signature look.

      High Streaks of Society: Highlights, Balayage, and Beyond

      In the realm of hair highlights, we're not talking about the subtle sun-kissed vibes of yesteryear. Chunky highlights are back, baby! Think bold, think contrast, and dial the drama all the way up. Want something softer? Balayage is your go-to technique, with its effortless sweep of color that screams 'I woke up like this'. Ice blonde streaks through inky black tresses? Yes, please. Or maybe swirls of honey and caramel for that head-turning dimension. Your hair type and texture play a big role, so whether you're rocking curly locks or super straight strands, there's a highlight or balayage waiting to become your new best friend.

      Chromatically Yours: Decoding Colors from Blonde Bomb to Ravishing Red

      Let's talk shades! Are you a fair-complexioned queen? Bold platinum or dreamy strawberry blonde could be your crowning glory. Ash blonde pairs brilliantly with cool complexions, while warmer skin tones can flaunt shades like cinnamon and amber. Perhaps you're in the mood for something daring? An inky black or an electric blue-black can add that mysterious edge to your look. And for the fierce among us, nothing says fire like a red hair hue colored with henna – it's not just a color, it's an attitude.

      To Dye or Not to Dye: Maintenance and Hair Care Post-Color

      After basking in the glory of your new hair color, it's time for some TLC. First, consider the bleaching aftermath. Gotta keep those hair cuticles happy, so they don't rebel and become a frizzy uprising on your head. Between visits to the salon, your color needs to stay as vivacious as you are. Think of maintenance as your new hobby. Low-maintenance colors like chestnut brown, or a subtle beige or sand might be more your jam if you're not about that high-commitment life. Products are pals with colored hair; trust us, a good conditioner is worth its weight in gold—or at least champagne blonde.
