If the color purple intrigues and attracts you, why not color your hair purple? There are many purple hair ideas that look gorgeous. But, not all of them will accentuate your skin undertone. You can choose from electric purple to the more subtle lilac – there is a purple for everyone! Here are some tips before you choose your shade.
What To Know Before You Color Your Hair Purple
If you have dark hair, you will most likely have to bleach your hair before coloring it purple.
It is wise to opt for lighter shades of purple, like lilac or lavender, for summery days. These pastel shades are in vogue and go well with most skin tones.
To make the purple hue last longer, wash your hair with cool water. Also, wear a scarf before stepping out in the sun to prevent the color from fading.
Limit heat styling as much as possible because colored tresses are more susceptible to damage. Make sure to use a heat protectant before styling your hair.

How To Choose The Right Shade Of Purple For Your Hair
When choosing a hair color, make sure you keep your surface skin tone and undertone in mind. If you have a warm undertone, opt for golden hues of purple. If you have a cool undertone, go for darker or more intense shades of purple.
The clothes you wear should look good with the shade of purple you choose. Figure out if you wear more warm, cold, or neutral colors and pick a purple accordingly.
If you spend a good amount of time in front of the mirror, making sure your face looks perfect, it is important that you read this. Imagine spending all that time doing your makeup only to realize that it doesn’t match your new lilac hair!
Do you want a complete hair color change? Or are you just looking for some playful streaks? Maybe some face-framing highlights? Do you want to get on the two-toned look bandwagon? Or is a dimensional purple look what you are aiming for? Make sure you check out all your options, so you pick the best shade for you!
Think about whether you want to spend a lot of time on maintaining that fresh purple shade. You may have to keep recoloring your hair as frequently as every three weeks. If you are not up for it, consider just getting some streaks.
