Matching Skin Tones
Look at your skin tone before diving into this color. “Cool hair colors compliment cool skin tones,” says Caicedo. “Warm hair colors look best on warm skin tones.” If you have fair skin, copper and orange undertones will work well. For darker skin tones, try honey and amber undertones.
Not sure about your skin’s undertone? Here’s a trick – look at your veins. If your veins appear blue or purple, your skin has cool undertones. If you see green or blue-green hues, your skin has warm undertones. If it’s hard to tell, you likely have a neutral skin tone.
How to Maintain This Hair Color
Pumpkin spice hair is not easy to maintain. The red pigment is the largest molecule in the color formula, making it tough to get in and out. Here’s the key – use pigmented shampoos and conditioners every two weeks.
Caicedo recommends Davines’ Alchemic Copper and Alchemical Golden. “Mix the two for customized pigment,” she suggests. She also recommends color-safe shampoos free of paraben. To seal in the pigment, apply a clear gloss after reaching the desired color for longer-lasting results.
Things to Discuss With Your Stylist
Before going for the makeover, talk to your colorist in detail. Show them a photo of the fall color shade you want. If you’re doing highlights, select a photo with a base color similar to yours.
If you’re fine with changing your base color, know this – you will need to visit the salon every four weeks. This is not a low-maintenance look. But if you opt for a highlighted look, you can extend the refresh glosses to every two months, depending on your hair care routine.
