We had a customer yesterday who was considering going for an ash lavender-purple color hair but wasn't sure if it was for her so she consulted our stylist and he suggested something a bit towards the red-pink side to complement her natural skin.
For those who have studied color science, we know that there's a thing called 'blue base' and 'yellow base'. This also applies to our skin where we have a warm (yellow) tone, a cool (blue) tone, and the one in-between called a neutral tone.
This is why some people look more yellow or like they lost all the blood in their skin when they wear certain colors!
There's a lot of science in it, that even works with the saturation of the colors but it's going to be a long explanation so I will stop here. /laughs/
But this doesn't mean you can't have the color you love! It just means you will need to put in more effort with things like make-up and your clothes choices to balance it out. Go forth and express yourselves!
