If you are born with a warmer skin tone, you should focus on wigs that incorporate the following colors:

• Warm browns
• Chestnut
• Honey
• Chocolate
• Dark mocha
• Amber
• Cinnamon

These wig hair colors can take the form of a full wig, but choosing a wig with lowlights or highlights of the above shades is an alternative idea.

2.1.1 Wig Colors for Darker Skin tone

If you are born with darker skin, there is a wide variety of wig colors to compliment your skin tone. I recommend the following wig colors for darker skin tones:

a. Brown hair wigs:

A Brown wig is excellent if you want to achieve a natural look. Don't go with these two shades (lighter or darker to maintain a natural look r than your natural hair color).

Darker skin tones suit all brown varieties, including those with golden, chocolate, honey, red, caramel, and coffee tones. Your choice of wig hair color will depend on your preference!

To get the perfect highlighted or ombre look, choose bronze color highlights. It will glow your face and elevate a darker brown base color. If your base brown color is a lighter shade, then golden brown tones will complement and bring out the warmth in your skin.

b. Red hair wigs:

Burgundy, deep reds, and copper colors are perfect wig colors for darker skin. If you are going for all-over red color, I recommend a deep auburn color. If you prefer a highlighted look, go for slightly bolder red color shades. Ombre style is also a better option! It will blend the black or brown hair wigs into a rich, dark red tone. 

c. Blonde hair wigs:

Blonde wig colors work beautifully with darker skin colors. Asure to avoid ashy blonde colors as it will not compliment your look like other blonde tones. Try darker blonde color with lighter tones to compliment your skin tone. Lighter blonde colors, with golden tones, work well.

Tones that complement cool skin tones include:

• Ashy brown
• Grey
• Honey
• Cool blonde
• Blacks
• Beige
• Auburn

The above shades neutralize the tone of your skin, whereas warmer colors can wash out your look. Following highlights, help give you a fresh look.

a. Bold colors:

If you have a more relaxed skin tone, you can wear more vibrant and unnatural colors, such as red and purple. You can get a jazzy look for the various occasion like a valentine's night party!

b. Greys and Blondes:

Greys, icy blondes, and ashy colors are great for people with cool skin tones. If you have rosy cheeks, the slight blue tone of your hair counteracts ruddiness in your face.

c. Honey and caramel tones:

For fair skin with cool blue undertones, it is best to go warmer with your blondes. If you are born with neutral undertones or deep olive skin, try honey, gold, or caramel colors.

a. Brown hair wigs:
