For a youthful appearance, it is advisable to avoid these colors.
We all want to grow old, but looking old is a different story. Fortunately, you can achieve a lot with beauty and fashion when it comes to a youthful appearance. When it comes to your hairstyle, it is especially important to avoid certain hair colors.
Don’t: heavily bleached
It is sometimes said that you look younger with blond hair, but the older you get, the less true that principle is. Hairstylist and beautician Ghanima Abdullah tells She Finds that intensively bleaching your hair down to the roots is a no-go if you want to look young. “If the hair dye or bleach reaches the scalp, it can cause damage to the scalp, which can cause hair thinning,” she warns.
Do: mushroom blonde
Instead of platinum blonde locks, according to hairstylist Greg Decker, it is better to go for mushroom blonde: a trend in which blonde is combined with brown and gray tones. The result is a blonde haircut that remains credible, and your locks are damaged much less. Win win!

Don’t: jet black
Jet black hair is also not the best option if you want to maintain a youthful appearance. Hair that is too dark can quickly look thinner and duller, and is more likely to emphasize wrinkles and fine lines on the face. “If your hair is thinning, you don’t really want to dye your hair black. Dark colors can emphasize the visible scalp,” adds Abdullah.
Do: chocolate brown
A good alternative to jet black locks is a chocolate brown cut. This way you keep your dark hair, but remove the hard look. Moreover, your face seems warmer and your hair fuller.

To maintain a young appearance, it is especially important not to dye your hair very light or very dark. Anything between platinum blonde and jet black is definitely worth a try. Be sure to experiment!
