Before & Afters With

Hair Color Can Change Everything: Before and After

18 Comments

When is the last time you colored your hair? How did you decide on hair color ideas? 

If you chose a hair color that didn’t support your natural beauty, your hairstyle may not have highlighted the real you!

Today’s Dressing Your Truth Before and After shows the way that choosing the right hair color makes a big difference in bringing out your natural beauty.

It’s common for women to choose a hair color contrary to their true nature. For example, we have found that soft, subtle women in my Beauty Profiling system often try to “brighten” their color, hoping to bring more life to their look. 

Unfortunately, the exact opposite happens! When these women use blonde hair colors that don’t honor their natural beauty, we no longer see the woman… We just see her bright hair!

Do you see the difference in the two types of blonde hair color in this before and after? This beautiful woman chose a softer tone to honor her more gentle quality of beauty—and we can see her now! Isn’t she just beautiful?

What do you think of her makeover?  Please share your positive comments.

    Thanks for posting this–I am a Type 2 and was at my hair stylist’s recently, darkening my hair (so it’s closer to my natural color) and putting subtle ash-colored highlights in it. I have been mourning my bright, gold “blonde” hair all week, feeling rather drab now…so it’s great to see this picture and how wonderful she looks–and, as you wrote, how we really notice HER now, not her hair.

    After initial resistance, I now love all the Type 2 colors, and feel very good in them…but my new Type 2 hair color has taken me longer to feel comfortable with. Guess it just takes time to fully integrate and embrace looking “softer and subtler” after years of wearing bright colors (and black) and having “spun gold” hair, yes?

    Another great makeover! As a Type 2, I couldn’t agree more about the hair color……And her eyes now pop! Her whole face actually looks more in balance. Hope she has a beautiful weekend!

  • Shiree

    Such a beautiful difference!

  • Syvia

    I would always like to see the same background color and setting in the before and after pictures. That would bring more truth to the whole.

      Hi Syvia, thanks for your suggestion. Many of these before and afters are sent to us by the women who did their own makeover on themselves, we did not give them the makeover, they learned from our online Dressing Your Truth website all they needed to give themselves the makeover. With that in mind, we can not make sure the background is the same, although I don’t think it would make any difference if it were the same! They are all amazing to me no matter what the background color is!! Thanks for reading the blog. I hope you try out the amazing resources we offer at our other websites. Love Carol

    The before hair color was more white and saturated and had a hardness to it. The after color has more highlights and is softer. Even how it’s styled now looks softer. It looks great now!

  • Dee dee

    WOW! Normally you wouldn’t have noticed how harsh her face looked until you see a before and after picture. What a beautiful difference.

  • Melanie Fogelbach

    This is an amazing transformation. When looking at the “before” picture, I got the impression that the model was hiding behind her hair. On the “after” picture, she looks as if she has conquered the world; she exhudes self-confidence and she is gorgeous. I wish her a bright future.

    Such a beautiful makeover! Love the difference in her hair color!
    I’ve really enjoyed the make-over differences.

  • Marti

    Night and day! Second pic shows someone I would like to meet–approachable…first one, not so much. :-)

    Truly great makeover for a soft, yet powerful Type 2! Kudos!

  • Bev Soloski

    She looks lovely after the makeover and her skin seems luminous.
    Because of DYT, I quit having the golden highlights put in my hair that I had been doing since I was 14 years old. I am now 47. In fact, I have stopped coloring my hair and I absolutely love the soft blended ashed color of my hair. It is greying ever so slightly. It is shiny and healthy. In fact I have a soft blended look that I am so happy about.

    • http://caroltuttle.com Carol

      That is awesome Bev, welcome home to the true beauty of your hair! I love it!

  • Tenika

    Is there anything to be said for ones natural hair color? Is that the hair color that adequately expresses ones “true nature?”

    • http://caroltuttle.com Carol

      Hi Tenika, thanks for your comment. The after actually shows her natural hair color, she had been coloring contrary to her natural color, that is one reason the before does not honor her as much as the after.

  • Lissie

    I am a T1 dominante. I recently got a new haircut – a curly haired bob. And colored my hair red and brown. Because of typing I knew that I needed to stick with golden undertones in the hair color, that I could handle an asymmetrical look, that a lot of movement would look good on me. Everyone absolutely loved my new hair and it’s completely thanks to what I learned from being profiled. Thanks.

  • Colleen

    She looks younger and softer. Amazing what happens with small changes.
    Thank you for giving women permission to be ourselves-
    and just do our hair !!

  • Melissa

    What an amazing difference! In the first photo I would have been a little afraid of her. She would have struck me as kind of a harsh woman. In the second photo she looks totally approachable and you can see what a gentle, lovely woman she truly is. Good job!

  • Sara

    I love how soft her hair looks. I’m a type 2 and I always looked awful with the bold blond highlights that were popular a few years ago, or the bright red hair that was popular before that.
