You’re ready to change your hair color—but now you’re staring down a wall of swatches and Instagram inspo and wondering:"What hair color actually looks good on me?"
We get this question at Lockerbie Lock every day. And while there’s no one-size-fits-all answer, there are some clear guidelines to help you pick a shade that flatters your features, fits your lifestyle, and boosts your confidence.
Let’s walk through it together 👇
🌈 First: Determine Your Skin’s Undertone
The right color starts with understanding your skin’s undertone.
🔥 Warm Undertones
Your skin has golden, yellow, or peachy hues.Veins look green, gold jewelry pops, and you probably tan easily.
Best Hair Colors:
Rich caramel
Honey blonde
Golden brown
Copper or strawberry tones
Warm blacks
Avoid: Ashy shades that wash you out.
❄️ Cool Undertones
Your skin leans pink, red, or bluish.Veins look blue or purple, silver jewelry flatters you, and you might burn easily.
Best Hair Colors:
Ash brown
Platinum or icy blonde
Burgundy or wine reds
Blue-black or espresso
Cool-toned highlights
Avoid: Warm tones that clash with your natural coolness.
⚖️ Neutral Undertones
You’ve got a mix of warm and cool—lucky you!You can rock almost anything, as long as it’s balanced.
Best Hair Colors:
Neutral browns
Soft rose gold
Natural dark blondes
Subtle balayage
Pro tip: You can experiment more with trend shades like beige blonde, muted lilac, or dimensional brunettes.
🎭 Match It To Your Personality & Style
Hair color isn’t just about undertones—it’s about expression.Ask yourself:
Do I want to turn heads or blend in?
Do I love timeless or trendy?
Do I want bold contrast or soft dimension?
✨ A rich brunette might give you boss energy.✨ A creamy blonde could say sun-kissed sophistication.✨ A vibrant red? Total main-character energy.
