Want to shake up your look? A new hair hue does the trick. But to max out the impact, you need to tweak your makeup too. Pros tell how to achieve color harmony.

If you go from: blond to brunette

SHADE SHIFT: “It’s easy to look washed out with dark hair because there’s more contrast with your skin, making your face look paler,” explains celebrity makeup artist Troy Surratt. Also, since brunet hair absorbs light, you may look less naturally radiant.

MAKEUP FIX: Go for light-reflecting peaches and corals to warm up your skin and turn on the glow. Blush is a must.

If you go from: brunette to blond

SHADE SHIFT: Blonds can’t handle heavy makeup looks the way brunets can. “Anything bold or intense seems harsher on a blond,” explains Chanel makeup artist Rachel Goodwin, who works with Hilary Duff.

MAKEUP FIX: Go for soft, muted colors such as pale pinks, mauvey browns, and nudes, and avoid playing up more than one feature at a time. If you’re craving more drama, use a sparkly gray liner on your upper lid.

If you go from: brunette to reddish brown

SHADE SHIFT: Even if you keep your strand switch within a similar color family, you have to adjust your makeup — the undertones in your hair and cosmetic colors need to match.

MAKEUP FIX: “Our eye is trained to interpret color harmony as beauty,” says Surratt. So if you add, say, auburn highlights, you should ditch cool shades like bright blue and opt for warmer makeup hues such as tawny, champagne, and even a swipe of soft gray.

Natural oil produced by the scalp acts like a natural barrier against damaging external factors, this is why it is important not to remove hairs oil completely.

Deep condition your hair at least once a week to restore and maintain the hairs moisture. Deep conditioning treatments are treatments which require a little bit of time, they usually have to be left on the hair for about half an hour. Allowing yourself a little bit of time once a week to pamper your hair doesn’t seem like such a hard thing to do.

Best Party Hairstyles: See Who Inspired These Must-Wear Dos

Designer John Galliano sent out his Dior models half-dressed, so it’s no surprise that their updos nodded to lingerie-on-display trailblazer Madonna circa 1984. Those desperately seeking sky-high curls à la modern-day pop provocateur Rihanna should think small: Dior stylist Orlando Pita wrapped strands around hairpins, then flatironed them (or try coiling sections around a pencil, removing it, and flatironing the ringlets). Back-comb the roots (don’t brush, or you’ll get megafrizz), then set with hairspray.

Texas-born siren Jerry Hall lit up the ’70s nightlife scene with her trademark long blond waves (and rock-star romances). John Frieda stylist Luigi Murenu cited Hall as his muse at Alessandro Dell’Acqua, starting with a low side part and sweeping hair over the opposite shoulder before curling lengths with a medium-barrel iron. Although Hall reportedly smoothed her strands with mink oil, Murenu—like Oscar-nominated actress Amy Adams, who regularly rocks the look—amps up gleam with a touch of shine serum.

Just as Debbie Harry’s choppy punk bob made an indelible, effortlessly cool impression in an era of Farrah Fawcett feathering, Anja Rubik and Drew Barrymore’s rough-and-tumble crops stand out among a sea of long-haired models and starlets. To prevent a bob from looking too news-anchory, put the Mason Pearson away: Matrix stylist Mark Townsend recommends using a texturizing spray before blow-drying and applying molding paste at the ends to add tousled definition.

Bumpits jokes aside, Brigitte Bardot didn’t hit her sex-kitten stride until she learned the power of the artfully disheveled, back-combed updo. Odile Gilbert transformed It Girl Lara Stone into Bardot 2.0 at the recent Gaultier couture show. Eva Mendes kept the look wearable by following basic hair-ithmetic: The height of your hair should never be proportionally greater than the height of your forehead. Instead of a comb, try using a toothbrush to tease hair at the roots as well as to smooth over bangs to finish.
