The Hair Colour Korean Celebs Use For Brighter Skin

April 19, 2017

Want a brighter complexion without having to use a ton of make-up products? Try colouring your hair orange! No need for alarm – we’re not asking you to go full-on carrot-top or look like a walking traffic cone. Instead, we suggest taking an aluminium foil leaf out of Korean salon menus everywhere and tint your tresses with subtle sepia undertones.

Look to the constellation of K-Drama starlets who have been spotted with orange or some variation thereof on their scalp.

But why? It’s elementary: Colour theory. Erica Baik, senior stylist at K-Beauty-inspired hair salon Dusol Beauty, recommends these rusty russet hues because they’re the equivalent of an Instagram filter: The warm locks framing your face “correct” sallowness and distract admirers from the dullness of your skin.

Plus, the staggering scope of bronzes available means your dye job has the potential to be endlessly flattering across the entire skin spectrum. There’s an orange for every skin tone!
