ENTRY-LEVEL COLOR

Subtle hue changes that make a big impact

IF YOU'RE A BLONDE ...GO STRAWBERRY

Flirt with the idea of red, while still keeping it in the family. "Gloss a blonde with a reddish or strawberry tone," says Serge Normant Salon colorist Aura Friedman. "You can do that really golden coppery strawberry blonde, or a cooler, ginger version like Evan Rachel Wood."

IF YOU'RE A BRUNETTE ... ADD SUBTLE DIMENSION

Make your cocoa hue a bit hotter. "Liv Tyler is a great example," says Robinson. "She has a rich chocolate brown with subtle light chestnut shades throughout her hair, so it's not monochromatic and has reflection."

IF YOU'RE A REDHEAD ... CHANNEL CHRISTINA HENDRICKS

Television's favorite vixen has a red that packs a punch. "What's so beautiful about Christina's red is that it strikes the balance between blue-red and orange-copper, so it could fit a lot of skin tones," says Robinson.
