English term or phrase: flattering
When choosing a color, be sure that the tone is compatible with the skin tone of the client. If a client has a gold tone to her skin, warm hair colors are more flattering than cool hair colors. For a more conservative or natural look when using two or more colors, choose colors with similar tones within two levels of each other.
