Actually, it does! Whether you have fair skin or brown, cocoa skin, red hair pairs well with it. However, you'll want to dye your hair the shade of red that complements your skin tone the best. For instance, if you have dark brown skin, then strawberry blonde might not be the way to go. You'll look best with a cherry red or violet red. On the flip side, if you have fair skin, then you'll look great with soft, red colors or even orange-red. A burgundy color may not look good with your shade if your skin is very light. But keep in mind that this is just a rule of thumb. When it comes to your hair, you can do whatever you want. Every person is different, and each person can pull off a certain look better than others. So don't limit yourself!.
