How Do I Know What Skin Tone I Have?

Today let's take a look at how to find the perfect colored 13x6 lace frontal wig for your skin tone.

What exactly is skin tone?
The easiest way to understand what skin tone you have is to do a fun little experiment!
In natural daylight, look at the underside of your arm. If you have a pink or rosy undertone and blue-tinted veins, you have a cool skin tone. If you have a golden or apricot undertone and green-tinted veins, then you have a warm skin tone. You must understand, however, that skin tone is the natural color of your skin which can obviously change depending on the climate (i.e. whether it is winter or summer).
If you’re still unsure, try this trick: Put on silver earrings or a silver necklace and look in the mirror. Then switch to gold jewelry. Which color looks better? Cooler skin tones look more radiant in silver, while gold jewelry pops against warm skin.

How do you find the colors that best work for you?
Hues for Dark skins:
Finding the perfect transparent lace wig color for dark skins can be pretty challenging! The key is to remember that it does not only stand alone with your skin color but your eye color too. Although brown is the most preferred hair color within dark-colored skin tones, honey blonde wigs (more specifically human hair wigs for that completely natural look) although a bit difficult to pull off, can do wonders if done right with a dark skin tone with dark eyes. Red-colored highlight wigs can also be a major head-turner for dark-skinned people.

Hues for light skins:
Ash, platinum blonde, and blues go well with light skins with an olive undertone! As mentioned above, red goes really well with dark skins but for light skins, if you wish to pull it off you can have two main options, go for highlight wigs or stick to a red within the dark copper, or burgundy side. And the lighter your skin tone, the more a lighter share of the human hair 613 bundles with closure wig will suit your face.

Universally flattering colors
The best part about colors is their flexibility and the never-ending variety! No matter your skin tone and color there are certain colors that are universally flattering no matter the skin tone. The first is Bronde! A mesh of two major colors blonde and brown is any person's first option for a basic new 40 inch wig. The second is dark brown, which is a timeless color that suits just about every girl. Then we have honey blonde which is the perfect option for someone but blonde but not too blonde. And the last one on this list must be Platinum blonde! Somewhat of a scary color if you are not used to changing hair colors but it’s a good thing that none of these colors have to be set in stone and you are still free to mess around with different options!

As Alan Flusser once said, "The goal of color is to make a person look at your face, not to distract". Choose the one that suits you best.
