Tips n'Tricks for Hair style

I'm tired of dealing with my highlights and want to try a darker color this winter, but I'm worried I'll look pasty. How can I prevent that?

Darker doesn't have to mean a boring, flat shade that emphasizes pale skin, says Marcello Paglionico, Garnier spokesman and a colorist at New York City salon Warren-Tricomi. To winterize your current mane without feeling like Wednesday Addams, use an at-home semipermanent hair color in a warm golden shade that's similar to your natural hue. This will make the streaked sections look darker and the other strands look richer. "The effect will be very warm and multidimensional, so it won't play up paleness," says Paglionico. Two great at-home hair colors: Garnier Nutrisse, $7.29, and Clairol Natural Instincts, $8.49.
