2008 Celebrity Hair Colours for Spring

The sun is starting to shine, and the spring clothes are emerging in all the stores and it's certainly time to start thinking about new spring hair colours for 2008. With the arrival of spring, arrives our desire to be up to the latest trends in celebrity hair fashions for spring 2008, and the latest trends in this spring's fashion are showing lots of vibrant colors in clothing as well as some earth tones and bronzed skin. It's important to keep this fashion trend in mind when thinking about hair colour for spring 2008 and celebrities such as jennifer lopez and supermodel gisele embody spring hair colour for 2008.

The element that the two hair colours have in common for j-lo and supermodel gisele is that they both look like they've been bathed in sun with natural looking golden highlights. I would say that highlighting is the key factor to achieving a great spring hair colour for 2008. In order to achieve this look, you'll certainly need to visit a professional hairstylist in your area that can provide you with a natural highlight that accentuates the overall tones of your existing hair to give you a fresh warm spring look.

Keep in mind that everyone's situation is different, however, generally you'll want to make sure that if you want to keep with the spring hair colour trends for 2008, you'll want to go one or two shades lighter than you are right now with your highlights. Also, cool tones such as pale ash blonde or very dark brown do not match well with the colours that are coming out in the spring clothing lines for 2008.

2007 Favorite Fall Hair Colors from Vancouver Hairstylist Emily

My favorite colors for the fall of 2007 are three-toned blondes (seen in Nicole Richie's hair to the left), rich chestnut brown (seen in Eva Longoria's hair to the left), and golden brown with carmel highlights (seen in Jessica Alba's hair to the left).

Nicole Richie's hair, a three-toned blonde, works best on naturally dark blonde or light brown hair. The first color is your natural color, the second color is a warm blonde one or two shades lighter than your natural color, and the third color is a platinum or white blonde. The hair is highlighted by alternating foils of one warm blonde to one platinum blonde. These three colors blend together to create a beautifully-dimensional shade of blonde.

Eva Longoria's hair, a rich chestnut brown, is a solid color that works on a variety of skin tones from fair to dark; it would look good on most cooler skin tones. However, I wouldn't recommend this for anyone with a lot of red in their skin.

Jessica Alba's hair, a golden brown, has a base of about a level 5 which could be natural or colored, but works best with a neutral tone. Then, the hair is highlighted with a golden or caramel color. This looks best on people with golden or tanned skin like Alba's.

I wouldn't say that any of these are more popular becaues it really honestly depends on the individaul. If you're looking to achieve any of these hair colors this season, take into account your skin tone, and your natural hair color (or your current hair color).
