Popsugar Beauty Hair Pastel Plum Hair Colour Ideas & Inspiration A Case For "Pastel Plum," One of the Best Hair Colours For Darker Skin Tones 18 September 2020 by Danielle Jackson Image Source: Getty / George Pimentel Even though choosing the right hair colour is a tricky process for everyone, I'm a firm believer that there aren't too many hair colours out there that don't look good on Black women — last summer's #DMXChallenge made that very clear for me. Out of the dozens of shades that look amazing on dark skin, one of our favourites is "pastel plum." This hue is very similar to lilac, and it's a really out-of-the-box choice if you're looking to test out a new fall hair colour that's not too moody or dark. "Pastels can sometimes make for too harsh of a contrast or wash you out," hairstylist Noel Reid-Killings previously told POPSUGAR. "It's important to pay attention to your skin's undertones. Those are the colours you want bring out. If you have warmer undertones, you want to aim for blues and purples as it contrast nicely." Read ahead to get a look at our favourite takes on the pastel plum hair colour.
