I’m sure you’re wondering, how can the colour of my hair improve my mood? Well, I’m about to tell you how! Colour Psychology suggests that colours can have a powerful impact on our mood with each colour eliciting a different response. Dr. Sanam Hafeez a neuropsychologist from New York has stated that “colour can influence a person’s mental and physical state” she says, “It can incite a variety of emotions”.

Colour has been proven to boost our mood and metabolism. We see this as we crave the sight of a blue sky after a gloomy day. Regardless of where you live, and what the past year or two has looked like for you, we have all collectively experienced a global transition; you’re not alone!

As we heal ourselves and rebuild our lives we are both seeking a new “normal” and fun! What better way to bring happiness and joy into your daily life than to BECOME joy itself.

Happy colors are bright, warm colors like yellow, orange, pink and red. Pastel colors like peach, light pink or lilac also have an uplifting effect on your mood. The brighter and lighter a color, the more happy and optimistic it will make you feel.

Calm, relaxing and serene colours tend to be cool tones like blue, green and purple
