A new hair colour can change your whole appearance. It’s a great idea going into a new season, or just if you fancy something a little bit different.

A good starting point is to look through some hair and style magazines to get inspiration. When you look at the different colours, consider the ones that might suit you and your complexion. Also consider how high maintenance they might be.

It’s rarely a good idea to colour your own hair unless you are a professional. There is a lot that can go wrong, and it’s difficult to reach the back of your head and get an even coverage. Visit a salon to achieve a high quality new hair colour that will last.

Once you visit a salon, your stylist will be the best person to ask about your chosen colours. They will be able to go through colour charts with you and discuss in detail what you can expect from your new hair colour. They will also be able to advise on aftercare.
