How to pick the right color?
First, brown hair looks good on EVERYONE, you just have to pick the right color. People with fair skin should stick to warmer browns (honey, copper) because it brightens up your complexion but, stay away from too dark colors because it will make you look too pale. If you have a medium shade skin tone, chestnut browns are the best for your complexion and adding golden highlights brings out the darker skin tones. If you have dark skin, natural browns are the best like chocolate brown because it complements your warmer skin tones.
Best Everyday:
John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Shine Release daily shampoo and conditioner . You want to use a color depositing shampoo and conditioner to bring out dark, rich tones.
Best Hair Gloss:
John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Shine Shock leave-in gloss makes hair extremely smooth and soft and gives it the perfect shine! Brown hair tends to look dull and flat, so this is the perfect product.

On the the Spring and Fall 2010 runways, bold and asymmetrical designs were everywhere, so it makes sense that big and bold hoop earrings are going to be a trend (not that they're ever really forgotten)! Hoop earring are now worn more casually by pairing your them with simple and casual attire, a sleek ponytail or big layered hair to show off your earrings.

Over the next few Thursdays I am going to put up the best hair products for certain hair colors because I got a special request on what the best products for blondes are!
If you need to brighten up your dull hair...
A moisturizing and brightening treatment for those with light hair is Marilyn by makeup company LUSH. When your hair begins to look dull this is the best pick me up. It makes your hair super soft, shiny, and blonder! It's $18.55
If you need a quick root touch-up...
Everyday shampoo & conditioner (or every other day...)
I always use John Frieda Sheer Blonde products. The Highlight Activating Enhancing Conditioner is the best to brighten up your hair. These products help maintain your hair color and shine. However, I think it's best to use conditioning treatments in between, especially for blondes because hair can get so dull.
Deep conditioning treatment...
For those of you who aren't blonde or the shade of blonde you want to be, don't go lighter than two shades unless you go to the hair salon, your hair could turn a very brassy color.
How to find the perfect blonde color?
First, know your skin tone. If you are fair skinned, a cool and ashy blonde looks best because it counteracts with pink undertones in your skin. Beware of going to platinum though, it can wash you out and make you look tired if it's too much white. If you have a medium skin shade you can pick almost any blonde color except for platinum and anything to yellow. Remember: the blonder you go, the more upkeep (although I did show some products on how to maintain your salon color). If you have olive or darker skin tone you should go for some gold and avoid a too-yellow hair color. If you have wavy or very textured hair don't go for an all over color. Instead ask the stylist to mix highlights and lowlights to show your hairs depth. If you have very thin or fine hair, go for all over color, while thick hair is better with just multi-dimensional highlight
Hope this was helpful blondies! This site is great to try different hairstyles on yourself!
