From here you can follow the advice for choosing the right hair color for you, according to your color season.

Again, this is a very basic guide :

Choosing the right hair color - Spring

People with a spring coloring can choose any of the warm, golden blonde shades, although redheads ( light ginger) should avoid all over blonde as it makes the complexion too pale - try golden blonde highlights instead. Redheads ( auburn) can color their hair warm chocolate brown - stay away from blonde completely.

Light browns suit golden highlights.

Spring should avoid all ash/platinum or lightest blonde shades - too cold for your warm complexion. It’s generally not a good idea to go too dark. Try to stay within a few shades of your natural hair color.

Choosing the right hair color - Summer

Summers should keep their natural blonde hair color as this is usually the hair color which suits them best!

Summers with light ash brown hair color can go for either light, ash or platinum blonde highlights.
