what color can do for you

Color affects the way you look, feel, and act. We associate color images or ideas; for example, red with hot, or feisty, blue with
calming, or tranquil. When we wear colors they can complement us or create an image we are trying to portray, whether that is
with the colors of the clothes we wear, make-up we use, or the hair color we have. Color theory is an important aspect of what
hairstylist do, making sure the colors we use complement you; your skin tone, the clothes you wear and the style of your haircut.

The Law of Color is a system for understanding color. All colors are made up from three primary colors; red, blue and yellow.
Using color in the painting of walls, canvas or hair follows the same law of color. The three primary colors when mixed will
always give you the same result from the same combination. Using equal amounts of two of the three primary colors will give
you secondary colors; orange, violet, green. These underlying colors are found in the hair, eyes and skin. FYI- Color reflects
color, mixing colors will also cancel out reflections or tone down color.

Make-Up is another way in which color can enhance your positive attributes. For example, the spring
and autumn person has more yellowish undertone to the skin, while the summer or winter person has
more underlying blue tones. Some clients have been amazed at the difference the right color can make
in their appearance.
Remember, color plays an important part in how you look. It is well worth the time to step back and
think about what colors are right for you.

muted colors an tints of sea and sky tones. The winter person shines in vivid primary colors, cool,
