FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions
Who Suits Yellow Hair?
Yellow hair generally suits individuals with warm skin undertones as it complements the natural warmth of the skin.
However, there are always exceptions to the rule. Anyone with cool-toned skin can seek out a cooler version of yellow hair, such as light yellow hair.
Which Hair Dye Brand Is Best?
There are plenty of incredible brands offering yellow hair dyes, and these are each available on the AMR Hair & Beauty website. We particularly recommend Pravana, Adore, Fanola, De Lorenzo, Pulp Riot, Muk and Limitless.
Does Yellow Hair Fade Nicely?
Thankfully, we can report that yellow hair fades nicely over time. The warm tones will eventually become a lighter blonde, which is easy to refresh with another layer of yellow hair dye if needed.
