| Bridesmaids all in their best purple |
It is no secret that we all have a special glow, when
we are feeling happy. Happiness comes from the inside. But, what about all
those days when we are not feeling happy and would like to project an aura of
happiness? Those are the days when we are putting on more make-up or changing
the color of our hair or standing in front of our wardrobes wondering, what on
earth am I going to put on today?
We have all been there and most of us, who don´t have
a stylist or some other person we could turn to for advice, we often don´t get
it right. This is a shame, because each and everyone of us could get it right every
single day, if that is something you really want.
Also it is very simple. You need to know which colors
work best for your own personal coloring. We should all use what we have. For
some reason, we want to look like something we are not. That way of thinking,
is the best way to get it all wrong.
How would it make us feel, if all the colors in the spring
time, were suddenly colors that we always get to see in the autumn? The trees
with red and yellow leaves, the grass burnt yellow? What if elephants were red?
Giraffes green? Wolves yellow? For some strange reason, we humans want to
change everything and think it is always for the better!?
To make the best of our own look and have that inner
glow about us at all times, you just need to appreciate your own colors. Those
are the colors, you received the day you were born. Those colors can and do
change with age, but it happens very slowly and it happens according to a
pattern depending on your type of coloring.
All you need to do is to determine your own personal
dominant color characteristic.
Those are:
LIGHT
DEEP
SOFT
CLEAR
COOL
WARM
Each of the six dominants are equally important, and
it can be your very best color characteristic. For most people, the fact
whether you need your colors WARM or COOL, is not important at all. It can be
that you need to emphasize your LIGHT colors. Or your SOFT colors without them
being warm or cool. Somehow many people have been stuck only on the WARM or
COOL and forgot about all the other four color characteristics. We really need
those in our tool kit too, when we are looking for our very best dominant color
characteristic.
For example, people born with very light coloring: very
blond hair, fair eyes and a light skin tone, is common in Northern Europe. As
these people age, their hair coloring often starts to get darker and since they
have been used to having very light hair, many would like to keep it that way
and start dying it blond. This is where it all starts to go wrong. In nature,
there is a system and a pattern. We can follow it to make the best of it, or do
just the opposite by fighting against it, and get it all wrong.
Why not just go with the flow, and appreciate what you
have been given for free: your coloring, and start working hand-in-hand with
it. That way you will always have that inner glow about you, no matter if it is
raining or shining.
To start out, have a look at yourself in the mirror.
You can also take a look at some magazines, where you can see many different
colors of people. Compare yourself to them, if it helps you to get on the right
path.
Is your overall coloring light or deep? If you can´t
tell, then move on to the next dominants and go through them all, if needed.
You can most certainly cross out one or two of them off the bat. For example,
I´m sure you can see, if your hair is very dark or medium dark or light. If it
is very light, you can cross off the DEEP color characteristic. We are looking
for the overall coloring. Not just the color of your hair, although it plays a
big part in your whole appearance. Your hair coloring gives a clue as to which
one is your best dominant color characteristic. That is why coloring your hair,
can either enhance or ruin your best look.
Start with the color and intensity of your hair color
and then move on to the color of your skin and eyes. We are all one big package
and the color, shade and intensity of your own personal coloring is all working
very hard together to give you that inner glow, which makes you look healthy,
happy and in love with life!
