Like any style change, the right hair coloring option depends on the individual. Those with fair skin need to have the right balance of colors. For example, if the hue clashes with the skin's undertones, it may wash them out. If your skin is on the paler side, here are a few ideas to inspire you when you want to change your hair color.

What Are the Best Hair Colors for People With Fair Skin?

1. Platinum Blonde

If you have fair skin with pinkish undertones, try a platinum blonde. Pink leans towards the cooler end of the color spectrum, so cooler shades of the warm-leaning blonde are more flattering. Platinum, which is nearly silver, is the coolest of the colors by all definitions. 

2. Ash Blonde or Brown

If platinum’s too bold and bright for your liking, an ashy blonde or brown may be what you’re looking for. More muted, these colors will particularly suit people with pink and cooler undertones. Note that the lighter your skin, the paler the color can go.

3. Red

With choices ranging from strawberry blonde to copper, there’s a red hair color for everyone. If your fair complexion has yellow or more neutral undertones, opt for warm shades like ginger or auburn. If you have pink undertones, apricot shades will look stunning on you.

4. Champagne Blonde

If you aren’t ready to commit to a bold color but still want a tinge of red, champagne blonde is the way to go. This is another cool-toned blonde, and has the softest hints of pink and peach that complement your skin. 

5. Pastels

For those who are on the other end of the spectrum and want more dramatic hair colors, pastels offer nearly unlimited options. Soft rose gold has been a popular color for the past few years. Lavender and periwinkle are lesser-known alternatives. Think of your fair skin as a blank canvas and pick a pastel shade of your favorite color.
