Hi! Wondering what color of red I would look best in? I have very fair skin, dark brown eyes, and my natural hair is dark brown. Although, right now it is a medium brown with some lighter highlights. (I tend to change colors a lot!)
I can't decide which red would work best with my skin tone, etc. A dark or a lighter shade? I was thinking maybe a light Auburn, but I don't know...
P.S.---There's a pic of me in my profile, but I had blonde hair then!

Hi, April! Since you have pale skin, you could probably pull off just about any shade of red, but I think since you have brown eyes, maybe a darker, more brownish-red might look really good. Or maybe a brilliant, fire-red, altho a friend of mine dyes her hair that color, and I know its really hard to keep :) So, maybe a brown-red or a deep, violety red? Hope this helps & good luck!!
Love,
Inga
PS-That's a nice picture in your profile...you're very pretty! :)
