Lip Color and Hair Color.

by Jessica Dodge – lead colorist and education director

Let the world see your best smile and hear what you have to say. Here are some general rules to lip by:

What’s the right lip product for me?

• If you have large lips you’ll want to avoid anything bright. Aim for a subtle effect by matching the undertone of the natural lip skin to the shade you choose with an Aveda rehydrating lip glaze or color gloss.
• if you have thinner lips, you’ll want to avoid anything too dark. Add shine with an Aveda nourish-mint lip shine or lip sheer.
• if you have average size lips you’ll want to add definition and enhance symmetry with an Aveda smoothing lip color.

What shade is the best match for my hair color?

Tone – warm or cool – is important in complimenting lip and hair color. Your stylist will help you determine your tone.
