How do you tel if your skin tone is warm or cool?

I'd like to dye my hair, but the color swatches I look at all give hints to whether it will work by describing my skin tone. My skin tone is very pale. How do I tell if it's warm pale or cool pale?

    Pale skin is generally cool toned. This would, however, depend on if you are a pale skinned caucasian - possibly a pale skinned african american (which would then be considered warm toned) - or even indian or oriental skin. If your skin has a pale bronze tone, you are warm. If your skin has a pale bluish tone, you are cool tone. Hope this helps :)

    Pale skin is a cool skin tone. The darker your skin is, the warmer.

    You can tell if ur skin is warm or cool by the tone of it....if it it more paler then you have a cooler skin. The more golden ur skin is the more warmer it is.

    if you have pale skin you will probably have cool skin if you have tan skin you will have warm skin.

    because white is a cool colour and brown and black are warm colours
