I love how much she knows about hair. The hairdressers where I live only know how to do hair, they don't know what will look good on different people, so I don't find them very helpful but you know your story girl!
Li-Mary Botha i agree!!
Li-Mary Botha Lol my surname is Botha. *-* :)
Li-Mary Botha lol in my city they don't even know how to do hair
Most hairdressers cut hair and don't know the art of hair.
This is school's fault. They teach about "how" and not "why" . Especially where I live.
I got that "I never leave the house" tone
+Kat465k Lol same
Christine Blais omg can we be pasty Canadians stuck in winter for six months buddies!?
NomNomMotherfucker OMG SAME
Dinosaursrlife Same here xD
If I went outside... I'd have much warmer skin, but instead I'm a freaking ghost.
Neutral skin toned people literally drive themselves up the wall trying to figure that out. It took me YEARS of washing myself out in ultra cool foundations thinking just because Im pale I’m cool by default. A makeup artist finally cracked the case cause both warm and cool didnt quite get it right. My veins are blue and green in different places, but they do lean a little bluer just because I’m so pale. I’m trying to find my right shade of red. I hate brassy yellow in my hair, but I feel like a heavy violent red would just be too much for my skin. I don’t know how I want to readjust my red. You have a lovely channel! You speak naturally and conversationally on camera, you’re so sweet! Keep it up.
I've been confused about my skin tone since I learned about it. I could never tell if my veins were blue or green. Now I know my skin tone is neutral and I love it.
I am so glad you talked about having both blue and green veins, lol. Until I watched this video, I used to get frustrated trying to figure out whether I have cool or warm skin. Now I get it. Based on the vein test, I'm neutral. So, thank you!🙏💕
Suggestion: have your viewers submit pictures of themselves and offer advice on a new haircut and color? I call dibs!!!
I bleach my hair with Feria Platinum extreme should I tone it
YESSS
That's an amazing idea!
Yes please need help asap
I need help here!!!
When you have a cool tone skin.
But you hair has a golden shine.
I was meant to be ugly
How I'm feeling rn too 🤣
No thats beautiful!
Susie H no trust me my friend has that right now and she looks so flushed and muted, i dunno if the commenters is natural or not id imagine that is prettier than warm bleached with cool skin but it looks horrible chemically done
@@bugmeep naturally it looks good, i have it
Haha yes! I'm not the only one!😂
This is the HAIRDRESSER I trust! I bleached my hair to very light always following your advices. I am a neutral to warm ( depending of how tan I am, and yes, self tanning!!), and although my hair tone is butter goldish blonde, it looks very white. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
I am still confused about my skin tone, sometimes I think I am warm but other times I think maybe I am cool...
If you get color matched at Sephora with their skin ID thing, you can find out. Im a neutral skin tone on the warmer side. Some products i need the pink tone, some products i need the more yellow toned.
Awesome, thanks!
Sarah Lundeen The majority of people are warm. Do you look best in yellowish foundation (warm) or pink foundation (cool)?
yeah me too is weird, my skin is like the tone of the girl in the image of my profile pic (sorry if my english is bad)
Brittney Sansosti The tone of your skin can be either yellow or pink when you have a cool undertone (blue) or warm (gold/yellow). This has nothing to say about you being warm or cool
A video about olive/light tan skin tone hair color video would be so needed. Awesome channel.
+mayrazulema209 Hi, did you get your reply. I have light olive/light sallow skin and am actually looking really good with platinum/silver hair - but thought i was warm-skinned! I can't see the other replies for some reason, lol. X
+Ladynipchick 7 oh really 😺I'm worried about looking dumb with blonde hair. I've used jet black hair color like 3 months ago. I'll give it a go slowly into lighter hair color.
The BEST explanation of 'finding your skin tone' there is on the internet. Thank you!! You've given me so many aha moments
I'd love to see a hair journey of one of your clients or a hair model. Maybe someone starting with very damaged hair over time to a healthier style. Or someone who is going from a dark to light hair color.
+K McS check out my "behind the instagram" video series :)
I went to the salon and asked for babylights/balayage to bring lights into my face and they made my hair really ashy and almost icy but I'm definitely a warm tone so I really hate how it makes my skin look. I actually loved the results of the technique and people have made really great comments about how well done it was done and I loooove the colour but I just think it doesn't suit me and that's why I would love to make it a little bit more gold... I've searched all over youtube how to do that and I haven't found anything. Please help me, I'm really hating how my complexion looks! Thank you!!!! Ps: sorry my english isn't that great.
ellebangs
The last part of this video was just so heartfelt and beautiful, thank you for being so vulnerable with us, I love your content so much! X
You are Absolutely humbled and captivating with all of your videos! Obviously your 2 million viewers rating speaks highly of you! Thank you. Your videos are so educational. You’re amazing!
My gosh ... i just realized that im almost in the end of the video and i didnt understand what she just saying cause im busy reading comment lmao....😂😂😂
😂😂😂 ME TOO
YOU NEED TO MEET SHAKIRA YOU GUYS HAVE THE SAME EYES!!!!
believe me I want to meet Shakira :D
+ellebangs I will never be a gold haird
I was thinking Charlize Theron (:

Nina Ann YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!
I needed this. I had no idea that cool and warm colors in your hair and makeup can change the natural beauty of your skin. Thank you. I dress for my body shape and now I'll color for my warm tone.
So same Elle, I am in the esthetic wellness business and always “ am I blue\green???? Oh,,, right I am Neutral” ...as always...thank you for the vulnerable heart videos ...your genuine and real...💚I’m thankful for YOU! And YOUR PROFESSIONAL BRILLIANCE AND INTEGRITY MATTERS AS WELL....YOUR THE TEACHER TOO!
You are so awesome!! I love it when you add something like "and I'm not trying to be" or "this is not to say..." Because I feel like you really care about you are saying and communicating to your audience!! 😊
I can’t believe this trick to tell if you are cool or warm toned! I’m definitely cool and have always wanted to go red but it’s always hideous! So when color started getting more bold and fun i have longed for that vibrant blue red and never thought it was an option
I'm confused tho. My skin is cool but my hair is naturally very warm
I just found your channel and I WISH I had your advice years ago! However, 44 and having Lupus, you make me want to "make myself look and feel better". Thank you!! I will be sharing your channel with my 21 & 19 year old daughters too.
I don't think you're awkward on camera, you're being real and you!
I’m Asian-American, so I’ve always assumed I’m warm-toned. I’ve never been told I was warm- or cool-toned. Your video was the first time I’ve had anyone have me think about my skin tone in relation to what my hair color should or could be. Thank you!!
This is a really nice video. There's so many videos out there of people telling others that certain colours won't suit them. It's nice to finally see someone telling others that they can rock any colour!! Follow your hair dreams people!!! :)
This is the closest I’ve come to understanding my skin tone -Thank you
I'm a warm tone. I am an autumn. I learned by getting a color analysis. I was also trained to do color analysis. I absolutely love wearing my colors! It makes me look so much better.
Color me beautiful! From the 1980s. But you can get away with colors between yours as long as you balance it. I agree. I’m a spring and my hair is greying slowly. The color grey isn’t so good on me, so I wish I could co neutral blonde with Champaign lighter around the face. It takes more work. I don’t know if I’ll ever go white. My father finally turned all white at 85. I’m like him and he colored most of it warm until he went white and it looks great.
Can you talk about dying hair black ? What are the best black shades for skin tones... Blue black ? Who can get away with that ?
+tania gonzalez I learnt the hard way that black should never be an option, really dark brown on the other hand...
blue black looks best on cooler skin tones. I dyed my hair blue black as a teen (35 now) and it worked well cause I'm very fair. I'm no pro though ;)
+tania gonzalez That depends as someone mentioned it looks good on fair skin, I agree mine's is blue black and I have fair skin, but not cool toned I'm more olive
+tania gonzalez jet/blue black good for cool skin neutral/warm is good for warm skin
I have a light complexion with neutral undertones and I pull off blue black amazingly
What about like, bolder colours? Like pastels and stuff? I've always really, really wanted pastel coloured hair, but I have fairly dark, grey toned skin.
It feels like the only colour I'd ever possibly look good with is black.
Karaleigh Loya Same!!! I've always wanted pastel pink hair
Same! I also really want like a baby blue or lilac~
i think you should just go for it! if it's pastel, you can always dye over it with a darker color. i was kind of nervous before i dyed my hair an unnatural color, but i'm super glad i did because it makes me feel way happier
Karaleigh Loya omg same!
Karaleigh Loya you would probably look best with blue based undertones (violet, or ashy pink, baby blue). I would stay away from apricot, orange-pink, yellow.
You are humble and generous with your knowledge on what skin tone suits a certain hair colour. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
We appreciate you. Your awesome. My mom was a licensed cosmetologist. You are very experienced. Great job on the camera. You are one beautiful young lady with an amazing personality. God Bless you.🌻
That moment when you are colour blind and don't know if it's blue or green XD
Marie and Jackie 😂😂😂
Marie and Jackie hard to relate
can’t relate
Elle, I don't know if ur still collecting these answers so long after u made this video, but I just wanted to say thank you for ur help. I'm now subscribed to you and the e-salon service and I'm also so impressed with your knowledge and generosity in helping us all look and feel better about ourselves. Wish I lived near you so you could do my hair!!!
You are such a sweetheart and a real gal. I watch all kinds of videos but this one made me stop and say you are doing fantastic, keep it up!
My veins are blue near my wrist, but green near my elbow. I'm confused
Hannah Thomas mine too
Hannah Thomas sameee but people tell me i look green/yellow a lot :S
Hannah Thomas my naural skin color is pale but I'm always tan (i live in a tropical island) so my wrist is pale, belly, chest, back and oart of my thighs are pale af but every other part is tan. It's really annoying
I think it means you're neutral, could be wrong though :/
You're neutral!
Why when I watch at your videos, I finally have the impression to listen someone who knows what is talking about? I really love !! Take this girl and give her the crown!
What about people with olive undertones... Everything seems to make my face look like I've got a five o clock shadow or something cuz it doesn't take into account the olive tones. I'm neutral tone with olive undertones
learn the color wheel
Same. I am light olive and I look like the walking dead, lol.
Alexandra me too!!! or sometimes foundation will look so so gray on me
darci hasselbach if a foundation looks gray on you- it likely pulls a green in to correct any redness in the skin (acne/scars) so if you have olive undertones it will amp up the green in your skin! Look for foundations that have words like “luminous, radiance “ on them, these will pick up slightly gold and play well with your olive undertones- your skin will thank you!
Holly needsavaction oh okay thank you!!!! i was sure i had an olive undertone but i thought maybe not because foundation looked gray / green on me. but thank you so much i’ll def do that!!!
This was really helpful, thanks.
You kinda remind me of Shakira
I love how you are :) It's really not what you see in every RUclips channel. Not to be that cliché "different", but you are, in a really nice way. Thank you so much for making videos! ❤️💚💛💙
I'm white with yellow undertone to my skin, my hair is neutrally dark brown and I've always thought it looked a bit harsh on me so since last year I've been adding lighter highlights to my hair which has softened my face so i think I'm doing the right thing :)
I always like your videos before even watching because I know they're going to be informative and helpful 💜
+Molly Mae Beauty aw Thanks :) Much appreciated! xx
I think that I am warm and cool. I have tried for so long to figure it out. I love this video. Good job. You sound so natural and yes, I watched all the way to the end.
Thank you I didn't know I was a cool skin tone. I thought it was warm my whole life. It makes more sense now.
I have olive skin but with loads of yellow.. What would you suggest? Thx ahead.. xo
Hi! I watch and learn so much from you. Thank you. I’m kind of embarrassed to be posting because I am 57 and feel like a granny next to you! But anyway, I am finding it very challenging to find my “look” as I transition into an older woman. I am stuck somewhere in the middle of my forties and being close to 60. A video series on styling for older beautiful women would be great. For example , hairstyles for us over 50 gals, wardrobe does and donts, makeup tips and skin care. I’m sure I’m not the only old broad out there who could use some help. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
Can I send you a photo of my face and just have you suggest a hair style and color for me???
I want the same thing! D:
Me tooo, if anyone finds a solution/forum etc let me know lol
DONT DO THAT..... YOUR SENDING YOUR FACE TO STRANGERS THAT COULD BE DANGEROUS TO YOU,,.😒😒😨whyyy just no
me toooooo
Melvin Williams with her being on youtube for as long as she has and being able to express to us the kind of person she is, I'm pretty sure most of her subscribers will think that it is perfectly safe and fine sending her a pic for that purpose. other circumstances would be a different story. we all have our opinions. but she has shown that she truly is a good, kind person, so I see nothing wrong with asking a hairdresser for advice by sending a photo. fans do it all the time on snap chat and what not. usually pretty harmless. :)
thanks for the info! it really helped me figure out my tone, finally.
I was hoping you could film a video about face shapes and what cuts or style may suit best, does it really matter? I'd really appreciate it
Also, would love it if you could do a natural make up look tutorial for those who don't have any time. go over what make up product is a must before going out the door so you dont look like you haven't slept in days lol I'm a first time mama and need help lol
Thank you for your help and all your awesome videos!
I have a video on the right haircut for your face shape already check it out. And will
Keep in mind a neutral look awake video for the future!
Great idea! I'd like that too!
+ellebangs awesome! thank you so much!
I appreciate that background music it's very subtle and I can focus with ease. Thank you
When I saw that golden blond color on Biance. I thought Gorgeous!
my skin is extremely olive. most "olive" people have a tint of that colour, but I have to use olive concealer as foundation. that's how olive I am
Hiba Alghol I’m green olive
Where are you finding olive concealer??? I'm olive too, concealer looks like faint orange or pink spots on me.
I think neutral, but not completely sure. Watching your videos has helped me put colors that are more complimentary to one another. Thank You
im a neutral but a bit more on the warm side
f4bulous me too!
I would say the same about myself but I'm so scared to go blonde. I'm afraid that I'll look ridiculous.
Me too
Same. I found this out because I used to pick warm foundations, but I’d always wind up looking orange instead of more olivey and golden like I should be.
@@darlingthimblemoon4658 That's me too 😥
shakira you look like shakira. was wondering who you looked like for a min
I think you are great and make everything so clear and easy to understand. I really feel like I learn so much watching your videos.
Besides the fact that your videos are so informative and helpful, for me....the biggest reason why I watch you is because I feel like my friend is talking to me. I appreciate that so much, your vibe is natural, relaxed, and sincere and I am drawn to that. I am trying to get my own channel up and running as well, and as a person who is more shy than outgoing...I feel you.
Anyway, another great video...I'm definitely neutral, but it took me a long time to realize it! haha... xo
ps...Whatever tips you might have for naturally curly hair would be amazing! :))
What I do when I'm nervous about dying my hair an unnatural color, I buy wigs of the same color ro test it out.
I have green vein on the underside of my arm and bluish purple vein on the top side of my hand.
Youre awesome in front of camera because you come across as authentic. Therefore you’re awesome.
I have always had trouble with this.. I have very fair skin, and cannot tan (just burn) lol. Sometimes I feel like I am cool tone and sometime warm tone, I've even looked at my veins on my arm, and some look blue and others green. Lol. I'm pretty lost. 😂
I feel you. I'm exactly the same
That's how I was too. I've known the vein color test but I couldn't quite pin point if they were blue or green until I learned oooh I'm neutral! I wish there were more videos on how to pick colors for neutrals. Vids mostly talk about warm and cool but not neutral 😥
+Cindy thats exactly how I feel too. Because I'll try looks for for very light warm and sometimes it looks good and others times no.. I go back and forth for cools and warms... It's so complicated. Lol.
the veins on my wrist to hand is purpleish blue but the veins on my arm is more of a green what skin tone is that?
Neutral I'm guessing 👌
+Catalina Moua same for me
I’ve just discovered your channel and omg it’s helped me so much already. I had a hair disaster and I’m in the process of having it fixed. I wish there was someone as knowledgeable and honest as you that I could find where I live.
I'm a very pale girl, cool toned, blue purple veins, silver jewellery. I'm an ash blonde (goldwell 10). I went deep red / burgundy over fifteen years ago and it was stunning but a bitch to remove. But I'm really thinking of going back to it (I have shoulder length hair) the two stunning deep reds with cool tones, is exactly what I want. But is it still hard to remove? And I am thankful for you making these vids, I'm a very happy audience member xx
cesky .fylm
+Laura V. Thanks Laura. I did go a deep red with a cherry hue to brighten it. By week two I was really sick and by week four it was being removed - allergy to the red dye! They did well removing it, but it's still got lots of warmth in it - a tad orange around the sides at front where it really grabbed. So will get more foils soon. You're right, once you go red, it fights like hell to remain!
I am Asian, and my skin tone definitelly warm one 😂 btw thank you for the info
I'm a asian too! What color are you dying your hair? Mine is dark brown!
l m Asian Too an my hair are black
I'm Asian too! Accidentally dyed my hair red (it's really bright under the sun) with purple dip-dye. I'm kinda honey colored (warm) so not sure if it fits me or not :/ my hairdressers do say it makes my skin look brighter lol.
+Christine Wang I don't usually like to dye my hair. maybe I'll dye it to warm brown..
Most of the Asians have warm skin tone. I'm Shanhainese!
I have super fair skin and the bright violet red looks so bomb on me. Literally my dads favorite color on me.
What pastel color hair would look better on a warm toned person? Pink or lilac?:p
lilac
liliac
Lilac.
Lilac
feel like lilac is a cooler tone so I say pink would look a ton better.
So so helpful 👍
Thanks Trisha!
ellebangs ... HELP ME PLEASE 😢 I've had blonde hair for about 10 years and about a year ago I dyed it a deep dark red , like a burgundy (regular box dye) and I hate it! I want my blonde back but all hairdressers tell me I have to let it GROW out which is not an option b/c my hair is gray 😢 can you help? do you have any secrets? thanks in advance ... you're amazing!
I too could not figure out if I was cool or warm from my veins or using apps that were supposed to I’d my color. I finally went to Ulta and asked what my skin tone was. They immediately told me I was definitely neutral. It has saved me a lot of time and money purchasing cosmetics.
what if you have olive skin, like really yellow/green undertones?
warm
All bets are off. I'm right there with you, Sophia. Freakishly pale with olive (greenish-yellow) undertones; makeup *never* matches and most colors look like crap!
warm of course, YELLOW is a warm colour
I have a cool olive skin! :D
This was great! How can I find a colorist who has this knowledge and it willing to lighten my dark brown hair? I've consulted with a few and they always tell me I shouldn't go lighter. It's really frustrating.
I have like blue and green and purple veins 😂
Me too!
Mary Ann same here
Me too, olive undertones
Same here
Same! I'm very very pale olive
I find neutral cool goes best on me. My hair is neutral warm. Warm colors look muddy on my face or too orange or yellow. So I stick with neutral cool soft.
Thank you friend!
It took forever for me to realize I was cool toned. I feel like neutrals are not common and not really represented well in the beauty community.
Hair, foundation shades, articles talking about color theory in makeup and hair that I find rarely discuss neutral skin tones.
If they do, it’s just barely mentioned and like an afterthought. Keep it up!
Your videos are so informative and nonjudgmental to those without a cosmo license! You should do a video on each skin tone! What to wear/ shades to style if your cool/warm/neutral... etc.
❤️
I'm a bit of an anomaly. My natural colour hair is golden brown, which is why I always stick to warmer tones when I get my hair coloured. Yet, I have a cool undertone to my skin.
Thank you for this! Im gonna dye my hair soon and i was questioning if i should really go a cool blonde considering my hair is light Brown with a golden shimmer
IMO, through my many yrs of hair coloring, it is always most flattering to color your hair in accordance with your skin undertone (cool warm neutral).
Just because the name of your hair color is golden this or warm that or champagne something else doesn't mean that it should effect the "rules of thumb" in hair dyeing. Whether dying from a box or going to a salon, shades should always be in accordance with skin undertone. For instance, if you're a cool tone the dye shade would be a name like "ash blonde" or medium ash brown. If you're a warm undertone, the dye shade will be something like "golden blonde" or "warm golden brown". Stephanie please don't take offense, this is not meant to insult, but I can tell by your profile photo that your hair color is too warm for your skin tone. Your hair appears almost orange up against your pinkish skin. Which is exactly what she was describing in this video. I have a similar issue in the summer with the sun lightening my dye making it turn brassy.
+Allyson Sixx no offence taken at all, that photo of me is two years old. My hair at the moment is darker, I will have to change my profile photo. Thanks for the comment. 😀
+Stephanie Sharp lol thanks. I almost feel rude saying certain things, but I used both of us an example of the undertone clash that can happen (your pic & my brassiness issue) just to give a couple of clear, concise examples without offending.
The Beyoncé example shown in the video (cool ash toned hair up against warm toned skin) was a fantastic depiction of this clash as well. It happens very easy with us cool skinned people, because it only takes a slight amount of yellow, orange, or brassiness to throw off the entire look. When hair dye oxidizes and changes hue or color, it can do the same thing as applying the wrong color. That is the drawback (for me) to coloring is the maintenance of ensuring it doesn't turn brassy.
Anyway hope this is helpful and best to you in your coloring excursions! Lol. 😜
I'm glad you said something. I was never happy with that colour from a few years ago and had a word with my hairdresser about it, as they always seemed to recommend honey blonde. I've gone a bit darker since and will definitely take notice of the cooler colour spectrum, even if I decide to go blonde again. It is something I have been wondering about for a long time, as I always match my make up to a cool skin tone, but my hair colour always seemed off (and it was confusing, as I said, my natural hair colour is golden brown, but it must have had cooler undertones all along). Thanks again for your advice.
I have been watching your clips for more then two years, ever since I realized You tube can be more then stupid pet tricks! I have to say, YOu are my "inner hair dressers I always wanted to BE!", I m in retail management but always LOVE Hair and Makeup just got into selling more doing on anyone but myself. I think you're so intelligent, real and a natural at this, you are so ez to understand. It like your a real professional!! LOL ( OF COURSE YOU ARE) but you are the DR Phil of hair/ Fashion etc. LOL. I think that's what got me watching you after a bad dye job. You are the only one that knew what and why my hair did what it did and how to fix it!! THANKGOD . I am happy I did ,hope you keep up all the great in info. PS I think you are sooo b e a u t i f u l , not being nasty just no more fillers, you are so beyond prefect. Thanks!
i think im neutral, im not sure though. but im planning on going blondish soon. with me luck, and thank you for having real knowledge
you can go to some beauty store and get foundation matched to you and they'll tell you then, like i'm neutral and how i know that is im Ivory 100 Neutral in my lancome foundation and Ivory Nude in Estee Lauder Double Wear which i a neautral undertone too and straight yellow-undertones looked VERY orange on my skin and straight pink looked like a weird tone on me too
i think its diffrent by the day or the outfit, bc ive been matched at a few places and never got a consistent answer, also some time i match to warm shades and some times i match to neutrals depending on the brand
You look like you will look great as a red head
I think so too !!
Totally
Please share make up looks for each of the four seasons, and different ways to style hair for 1-3 day hair! As a bonus, can you share how you take care of your skin and nails?
I also have red undertones in my hair. Should I try an ash brown hair color to cancel out the red in my hair?? Just asking. Thank you!!
I am so glad I found you"re channel, I found it because I had always used box dye, so my hair would come out so brassy. I thought I could just get a toner to fix that but then I started watching all these beauty video's and realized box dye might not be the way to go, so I went to sally's beauty supply and told her my issues, she help me pick out the right developers and I still got toner just in case. She explained the ratio to use but I was so scared to try new products I waited 3 weeks after buying it to even use it. By the time I decided to face my fears I forgot everything she said, so I read the instructions but it had 2 different ratios that I could of used depending on what I was doing to it, one of the was a ratio for high lifts which I. had no clue what that was. So I went on youtube to type in what are high lifts, you're video explaining 2 other thing's and what high lifts were was on there, that video literally saved me from making a mistake on the ratio that I should use for what I was doing. Then all you"re other videos popped up about how to color, tone and so much more, so I been binge watching you're videos and learning so much about questions I am always trying to figure out. Thank you so much for putting these videos up, I am learning so much that I been wanting to know and that I did not know even down to contouring my face. I have never contoured my face before, ever since I started watching youtube videos 7 months ago I did not know how popular contouring was or how to even do it. I rarely wear anything expect eye liner and mascara. If I use foundation that is literally all I use and sometimes powder. I always wondered why I could not get my concealer to work, like I would put it on and think that is all I had to do but I was always disappointed because the marks I was trying to conceal still showed through. Well apparently I was not doing to right and I did not put anything on expect for the concealer so that is why it was not working, there are other steps involved I learned lol. RUclips has saved me, it has taight me so much that I had no clue about thanks to people like you that make these types of videos. I have watched so many different people on youtube which they knew what they were doing but I would still feel so overwhelmed with all the steps and info, until I found you're videos last night. You explain thing's so clear you put up examples as you are explaining, I do not feel overwhelmed and I understand everything so clearly thanks to the way you explain thing's, just like when I did my hair I watch a few of you're videos while doing my hair to follow along and did exactly what you said. My hair came out great, since I did not use box dye this time my hair was not that brassy at all there are a few strands of yellow here and there but the way it is done it blends in so well. I just colored last night but today I am going to tone it and honestly it blends in so well and there is not really that much yellow I feel like I am wasting the toner, so I am going to start watching more of you're videos right now to see if I can do something to help it without opening the toner. I am sorry this comment is so long like a book lol but I just want you to know how much I appreciate these videos you have posted and I cannot wait to watch the rest and any new one's you post. Again THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! You are a life saver and I know many other people think the same.
Christina Faye I personally love box hair dye!! I’m currently having my natural hair long and straight, dark blonde or honey blonde/light brown kind of hair. But I was black, red, purple, orange and dark brown in my teenage years... so each time I used a box dye and it worked! Although I ruined my hair with bleach when I went fully bright red. now I’m natural for around 4 years, my hair is in great condition but now I want some change again and color it dark chocolaty brown maybe with some slight mahogany... we’ll see. I will use Garnier Olia in Iced Chocolate probably. Two boxes for my long hair and it’s going to be great 😃
oooh thank u I spent all my life saying that my hair looks brassy while other people say it's not know I have understand that it's because of my cool skin tone
What about fashion colors does this still apply
I'm wondering this, too
I think this is more about achieving a more harmonious look. With fashion colors though that is practically not an option so I think with fashion colors, you can do what you want.
thank you
Girlfriend this video was so amazing!! I’m a colorist too and I’ve been trying to figure out why my skin tone is and what looks good on me until I realized I’m neutral too which is why everything looks fine!! lol. I also self tan and love bronzer so this was so helpful! Thank u so much for sharing!! Xoxo
Hi Elle, you always look confident by the way and thankyou for sharing. I studied beautician, nail tech and hair and i live hair the most even though i studied hair later in my life. I love your talks
I'm neutral when I'm not naturally tanned once I go out in the sun and get a little bit darker I turn a little bit more golden.
Stephanie Paradine yeah me too
I'm neutral as well but I freckle and tan so I have no clue. I look like a freak.
@@darlingthimblemoon4658 are you lost Like me?
My veins are blue purple but my skin is till not really cool. Golden jewellery looks good on me. So am I neutral? My hair is dark brown and I really want to have a lighter hair colour but I don't want blonde. What should I choose? :)
You're probably neutral. Go for golden blonde like Beyonce's!
+Aqila N. Thank you for your answer! It looks amazing on her but I don't think that I would be comfortable with such a light blonde. It would be a huge difference :)
Chloe More or go with golden brown hair with blonde highlight like Giselle Bundchen if you wanna look like a goddess cdnpix.com/show/imgs/043829983dea66e87045b739fd4acbca.jpg
+Aqila N. Thank you so much
A light ash brown.
I'm a neutral too, I have literally one blue vein and one green vein next to each other on my wrists! When I tan in the sun I look really warm, and if I get no sun in the winter I look very cool.
you're really awesome .. Thanks for the videos
She looks like Shakira.
I am warmed skin tone. I kinda of knew it before this video, but I like that you gave a way to figure out and gave us tips on which shades are best for us. Thanks for your time and dedication!!!
My veins are a blue/green color so I think I'm a neutral, but I'm also olive? My skin is medeum tone and my eyes are a dark olive/hazel. My hair is lv.10 or 9 platinum/ash because I feel like gold blonde looks not as good. I don't wear make-up but I do tend to wear more cool tones in clothing. Anything like coral pink and orange make me look a bit off? #mixedproblems
this is my problem! i am half asian half white and my skin pulls yellow but my veins look.. blue sometimes? i am light/medium (nc20ish) noone has been able to entirely tell me if i am cool or warm :(
+Mari Eli Same Problem! Im also half Asian half european and i just go with neutral to yellow foundations when i do my makeup i just find that that goes best so i go by that
I am Mexican with European and Native ancestry. If I were to wear makeup it would probably be in the "beige" section or I have to mix.
+octogland I have the same problem (I'm Native American with some European ancestry). I go for neutral to warm shades and avoid gray/pink in my foundation because it makes my skin appear dull. Try to find out if you're slightly more cool or warm toned so you can start with a neutral shade and then adjust it to match your skin.
+panini ception aw thank you!! ☺️
I have brown skin and ginger hair I love it !!! It makes my skin more healthy and glowing
I have black hair and it made me look like I'm sick or I'm little dead lmao
I'm neutral
You helped me at 63 to figure out my face shape. Drawing on the mirror never worked for me. The one with measuring was so helful.
I have very cool toned skin with pink undertones but my hair is naturally a very light golden yellow blonde. On one side everyone always says that yellow tones don't look good with cool toned skin but on the other side people say your natural hair color looks the best... it's confusing.
same here 😅
I colored my hair for the first time a few weeks ago and my colorist sucked so bad. I wanted to go with highlights because that's easiest for a first try but it went super super yellow (I have a very fair cool skintone) and my colorist was like; "wasn't this what you wanted?". LOOK AT IT!! It looked awful. Luckily she did try to fix it, but I'm totally going to a different salon next time, I do want a colorist who understands what looks good on people. -.-'
All my life my mother and many hair dressers told em that I was warm toned. But I never thought that my skin was truly warm. I’m now 27 and just realized recently that I am neutral! It changed everything for me!!!! I wish more stylists could pick out neutral tones!
'I obey my skin tone' *gets a tan'
Tone & shade are two different things! There are specific tones in tanners too, & maybe she uses one similar to her tone
I find she kinda looks like Shakira in this O.o
thekalinka918 I KNOW RIGHT
Nooooooo! Nicole Eggert!
I just thought that before I saw your comment lol
I've always thought I was warm but catching on to fact I may be neutral worked in hair salon for 10 yrs and learned color theory..but got lost when came to self! Thanks helping me just feel better about myself yet feel empowered to find best self again. Thank you..
I need you in my life 😭 I have both blue & green veins
I hate my skin color, I feel like every color looks wrong on me
Laura DiAlcantar Girl it's ok, you're probably neutral. Just like you I have both blue and green veins and I'm neutral on the warmer side
what about pale af olive skin?
Olive skin can almost look gray or ashy at times.. Therefore it's neutral. HOWEVER, olive skin can tan to a warm OR cool tone. That's because there are several variations of olive skin as well. Some olive skin can pull more yellow or red and there are dark and pale olive skin tones as well. Confusing right
Dude having a pale,yellow olive skintone is so annoying. My family is Mediterranean, so we are all naturally a warm olive color, but I happened to be extremely pale (MAC nc15 is kind of my shade when it comes to how pale it is, but it is waaaay too pink for me). I honestly have no idea what hair color suits me when I am not self tanned/my pale skin :/
That sounds like a beautiful complexion you have! Because you're pale, and tan yellow I'd say you're warm. Most olive skin tones that are darker, tend to tan with a reddish undertone or a true brown. Paler olive skin, I've noticed, tends to tan more yellow, which is warm. (:
what makes you look too yellow????
Awesome explanation of neutral tones! I am neutral but prefer wearing bronzer so I am going to choose warm. The easiest way to be sure as a blind is to try on brunette wigs, one warm and one cool, it will be very obvious which one looks better.
I feel that I’m a cool tone, I have yellow undertones. I’m starting my transition into blonde, I’m naturally a dark brown almost black what color do you think would look best?
Aponi Gwenelda if your cool toned, then you don’t have yellow undertones...
