Beautiful and elegant chocolate hair color suits girls with different types of appearance. But still, some people are more than others. Someone gives brightness, freshness and even a certain aristocracy, while others, on the contrary, visually ages and somehow spoils.
That is why, before dyeing your hair in the chosen color, we strongly recommend that you consult a stylist. If for some reason this option does not suit the young lady, we suggest that she simply study the material below. After all, in it we have collected the most complete information about such a coveted shade.
Why is color considered trendy?
Of course, the easiest way to answer the question formed in the title is with the following phrase - it is chosen by a huge number of girls and women. But that doesn't clarify much. Therefore, we will try to understand the topic in more detail.
So, according to stylists, chocolate hair color (a photo of one of the shades is shown in the picture below) is the most versatile. That is, a young lady with a head of hair of this tone can appear at a social event, and in a club, and even go to dig potatoes. But at the same time, she will look not only dignified, butand appropriate, which is also important.
Celebrities prefer it for a slightly different reason. After all, it is this color that allows you to carry out fashionable coloring on your hair, reminiscent of burnt strands or elegant highlights. Which look beautiful and lively in the frame, moreover, very natural.
But the reviews of ordinary people describe to us another significant advantage of chocolate hair color. They relate to the theme of diversity, which allows you to choose the warm or cold tone that suits a particular person. And this is true, because the chocolate palette has a huge number of shades. Let's take a closer look at them.
Cold chocolate tones
Most people, when talking about the color studied in the article, imagine dark, almost black hair. Although in reality the palette of shades of chocolate is much more diverse. And then we will make sure of this:
- Dark chestnut - the tone we just mentioned is perfect for fair-skinned ladies. Looks especially impressive in combination with bright eyes, such as brown, hazel or green.
- Bitter chocolate - slightly darker than the previous shade, but looks more natural. Decorate a girl with swarthy, tanned or olive skin and bright eyes.
- Milky chocolate hair color, rightfully considered not only a very beautiful, but also a “delicious” color. After all, looking at it, you remember chocolate, cocoa or coffee with milk. It suits all young ladies, except for those who havefreckles and brown or green eyes.
- Light - will be a great option for a person with fair skin and gray or blue eyes. Most often, it is chosen by blondes who are afraid to radically change their image, but still want to experiment.
- Ash chocolate - a shade that significantly transforms a girl with a cold appearance: blue, blue or silver eyes and fair or porcelain skin.
Warm chocolate tones
Chocolate hair color is quite original. Indeed, in it you can find echoes of other traditional colors: blond, light brown, red, red and even black. Therefore, if a girl wants to “try on” one of them, she should first try out the chocolate range. In addition, such manipulations will allow you to get used to the color and not be disappointed when you see the contrast in the mirror.
So, warm chocolate tones consist of the following shades:
- Caramel is a color notable for incorporating a bit of chestnut and red. As a result, the shade turned out to be very bright and original. It should be chosen by young ladies with slightly or strongly tanned skin, distinguished by golden brown, amber, dark brown and hazel eyes.
- Coffee - a tone in which shades of brown and red are intertwined, giving it an incredible brightness and aristocracy. This color will undoubtedly adorn freckled persons with brown or green. He also looks like swarthy girls with dark, almost black eyes.
- Dark chocolate is a hair color that is very similar to black, so many people even confuse them. ButHowever, there is one significant difference between them. This shade is not as harsh as black. Therefore, it looks like even blue-eyed and gray-eyed beauties.
How to choose a decent color?
We have already said that the chocolate palette is extremely rich in shades. In addition, every well-known (or not so) cosmetic company strives to present its own tone, which will look much more advantageous than that of competitors. And as a result, it will sell much better. That is why many girls and even adult women are frightened and lost from such diversity. They can’t choose the most impressive shade for a very long time and often leave with nothing. And more often they get something that they don’t like at all later.
To prevent this from happening and our reader could choose a successful chocolate-colored hair dye, we suggest following the advice below. So, the most important thing: you can’t buy a coloring agent, focusing on the model from the package! It shows the result of dyeing blond hair. Therefore, for girls whose curls are not light or blond, it is important to be very careful. After all, an incorrectly selected paint on the hair may not appear or it may turn out darker. Getting around in this matter is quite simple. You just need to look at the back of the package. There are the original hair colors and the result of their dyeing.
When should I wait to change my image?
A huge number of young girls who, due to inexperience, do not know about the properties of coloringcompositions, purchase the desired hair dye in the store (with chocolate color, for example), run home and independently dye their hair in the desired color. But the result is not something that does not please, it terrifies. After all, the hair suddenly acquired some unnatural red or even green color. And then tears, panic and complaints about how hard life is now begin.
But if the young ladies knew a few important nuances, this would not have happened. For this reason, we will look at when not to paint. And why.
