Choosing the right hair color isn't just about following trends – it's about finding shades that naturally complement your skin's undertone. The year 2025 brings exciting new possibilities for hair colors that can enhance your natural beauty.

- You burn easily in the sun
- Pink or blue-based foundations match your skin better
- You look best in jewel tones and pure whites
