iceandneedle asked: Hey Danielle, I'm a regular reader of the style and beauty doctor. I love your site. It really helps as there aren't enough quality sites targeting women of color. I have a question about ombre/balayage hair technique. I have skin tone similar to freida pinto (a tad lighter and yellow-er) and I have black hair. Can you suggest a color that will suit my skin tone if I went for the ombre/balayage look? Thanks!
Hey!!!
Thanks so much for reading my site and woo hoo on going ombré! I ever tell you how much I LOVE ombré? I do! So chic. Anyway, from the skin tone you described, I’d say go for chestnut brown tipped tresses. It’ll warm you up slightly without overpowering your complexion. Check out Camila Alves looking S-T-U-N-N-I-N-G with the exact look I’m describing. Basically print this out and take it to your salon :)
Hope this helps! I want to see pics of your final look ;)
