Here are 7 tips & tricks only your hairdresser knows, from how to avoid the wrong color to exactly how to do it yourself.

1. Pick the right color. Your hair color should suit your complexion. Any hair color will look good on pale skin. If you have pink skin, avoid shades of red or golden blonde. Opt instead for ash tones to neutralize your coloring. Sallow complexion? Stick with deep reds & avoid yellow, gold or orange tones. If your skin is olive, stick with dark colors & add richness with lowlights in red or brown shades.

2. To color or to highlight, that's the question. If you have short hair, avoid highlights & opt for full color. Subtle highlights around your face will brighten your complexion if you have longer hair. Keep in mind that due to root growth, all-over coloring will need to be touched up every 4 to 8 weeks, while highlights can last up to 2 or 3 months.

3. Different types of highlights. There are basically 4 types of highlights: basic foil highlights, bialiage or 'hair painting', chunking or 'piecing' & lowlighting.

4. Doing it yourself? Home-color kits have come a long way in the past few years & are perfect for busy people & those who want cut the cost of professional colorings. (We know of a couple top fashion editors who color their hair themselves!). Some great hair coloring kits include:
L'Oreal Natural Match Hair Color
Clairol Nice and Easy

Some home hair coloring tips: Rub Vaseline around your hairline as a protective measure before applying color. To remove after coloring, rub a small amount of cream cleanser & wipe off with cotton balls. Always wear gloves & wrap an old dark-colored towel around your shoulders. Rinse your eyes with water if you get color in your eyes. If you forgot the Vaseline & stained your skin, rub the area with a cotton ball soaked in alcohol-based toner.

5. Don't like the color? Don't be afraid to go back to the salon & talk to your stylist. There are all sorts of ways to fix color that's just not right. If you did it yourself with a semi-permanent color, use a body-building shampoo to wash away the color faster.

6. After care. Refresh your color by using a color-enhancing shampoo & conditioner once a week. These products deposit miniscule amounts of color into hair.

7. Root rescue. You can expect your color to last about 6 to 8 weeks before your roots show. Be sure & test the color first before applying.
If you have highlights or lowlights, you can avoid having your whole head colored by asking your stylist to do your hairline, crown & part. A word of warning: Foil highlights require precise application & fixing dark roots is nearly impossible. Ask about easier to maintain highlighting techniques.

Getting your hair color right isn't a science. It's really quite simple: Stick to the colors that compliment your skin tone, figure out if you're best off with all-over color or highlights & then decide if you're going to pay someone else to do it or do it yourself.
