Most girls colour their hair for the first time in college, so if you’re looking to play it slightly safe for your first dye job then stick to the brown hue. Experiment with going a few shades lighter. Speak to your stylist about adding accents of mahogany, honey and chestnut to bring loads of depth to your strands. Playing around with different shades from the same family is a smart idea, especially when you don’t want to go super drastic but still want a noticeable change.

5. Be a Unicorn!
