I have alabaster skin and hazel eyes, I was wondering what hair color you think would look best with my skin and my eyes. I want to be glowing instead of just so white. I've gone different shades of blonde and brown, but I need outside opinions. What color do you think would suit me best?

If your skin is that white, enough to call it alabaster, I'd guess you are a winter.  Is your natural haircolor red or dark?  If so, you are probably a winter. I'm jealous!  I always wished I could pull off winter colors.  If you really are a winter, mainly you want to avoid yellow shades and any browns or blondes that are warm, if you want those colors, go for ash.  Though there's a good chance you could pull off red, even though it is warm.  You'd look best with black, but that may give you a more gothy look than you like...if you go for a very dark brown that is almost black, it will look more natural.

If your natural haircolor is light though, you are probably not a winter, you probably wouldn't look very good with red or dark colors such as black (they'd wash you out in that case).

Well, in that case you could be either a summer or spring most likely, so I probably wouldn't go very dark.  It would be hard to say because one (spring) looks better in golds and the other (summer) looks better in ash or silvers.  You would probably look great with one and okay with the other, so either way would work really.  Have you noticed what are your best colors?  Do people think you look great in brights, or not so great?  Great in pastels, or less good?  How about pastel lavendar, or navy vs. black?
