For most of us, the New Year is all about reinvention. And we all know that reinventions are often the catalyst of starting something great! A new color leads to an extra dose of confidence, and who couldn’t use some of that? Confidence leads to energy which leads to activity which leads to success.  This is not to say that coloring your hair a new shade of auburn is going to lead to world peace, but hair dye can make all the difference!

Blonde

Lighten up and give your hair a sunny makeover! Unfortunately for most of us, going blonde is a little bit harder than going darker. Many women with medium brown to black hair(such as myself) have to result to using bleach-based products to see real results.  And unless your hair is dark blonde or light brown, the boxed hair dyes won’t work so much. If you have really dark hair but you want to really lighten up, you’ve got two choices. You could go to a salon and get your hair lightened by a professional, or you could buy a box of hair bleach from Sally Beauty Supply and do it yourself. I do the latter. Of course, my sister helps with the actual hair coloring process, but it works for me! If your going to follow my lead,  I would recommend the following.

1- Have a friend help you. They don’t need to be a professional colorist, they just need to follow instructions.

2- Do not attempt to bleach hair that  previously colored. This rule does not apply if you’re just touching up your roots.  True story: many years ago when I went to a salon to get my hair bleached and because my hair was previously colored(I really forget the color and brand) months ago, my fresh roots were lightening up but my colored ends were turning black! To make the long story short, she had to color my hair a shade of dark brown.  Yeah, just don’t go there!

If you do end up going to a salon to get your hair colored, I would highly recommend bringing a picture or two to the colorist so he knows exactly what you want. Also, don’t forget to use the proper lingo when it comes to selecting your perfect shade. Check this link from Stylelist for the most common terms.

Brunette

Virtually anyone can go brunette with the right hair color products. As a bonus, many of your favorite hair color brands(including Garnier and Clairol) have a variety of nourishing hair color products.  So if you crave a new look and long to pamper your hair, going brunette could be just the thing for you!

The next step to make after your decision to color your hair is to find the perfect shade. It does not matter if you’re going a little lighter or a little darker, you want a color that is going to make you look and feel terrific. Take a cue from your natural skin tone, are you warm or cool? You obviously won’t want to try a new color only to end up shocked because it doesn’t complement your skintone. Also, try to stick within 2 to 3 shades of your natural haircolor.

Red

Thinking about going for a ravishing red color? Or maybe your hair is naturally auburn or chestnut and you want to enhance the redness. Either way, when it comes to selecting the right shade of red, you’re going to want to pay attention to the same rules as above. If you have naturally light hair, try a warm strawberry blonde; if you have naturally black hair, consider a rich burgundy or mahogany. Another thing to consider should you consider when it comes to dying your hair red is the maintenance factor. The redder the shade you have, the more time you will have to spend on protecting the shade.  Red hair fades fast! Invest your money in a quality shampoo, conditioner, and color glaze. If you don’t have the patience or money to deal with the upkeep, I suggest getting reddish highlights or choosing a shade of red that is closer to brunette. While you’ll still have some color upkeep, it will be more manageable.

Perk up your look with a fresh shade of red.

Black

For most people, particularly those with lighter hair and paler complexions, black hair seems so drastic! But when you look at celebrities like Dita von Teese or Megan Fox, black hair suddenly becomes a glamorous temptation. If your up for the challenge, you could try one of the following products below. If you want to try black hair but your not sure its for keeps, then I suggest using Manic Panic NYC(also below) which is semi-permanent.

From rock star to fashionista, black has never looked more glam.
