I need Monster hair help

2 of my mystery bags from DollyHair.com are day glow orange and neon green, I am uncertain who they will work best on.

I have a Draculara, 2 Frankies, and a Ghoulia. Who would work best with neon? I have white at hand, might be able to get some black. Really need ideas.

Personally, I would use Ghoulia due to being Grey and thus a neutral colour. With Draculaura, the orange would clash with her skin and I'm not sure how neon orange and green will work with Frankie's mint green skin... (though I want an orange haired, green skin doll so I'm biased about that combo..)

I would do ghoulia with the orange and a frankie with the green. Draculara might be doable with either she's a bit lighter pink but it could remind you of those tropical poines. Pink and green can look particularly good together depending on how you repaint and dress her. I say just go with what feels right.

Take a peek at a color wheel:

Now according to color theory, colors that are opposite from each other go well together, as well as colors that are adjacent to one another. It is naturally pleasing to the eyes.

Grey is very close to purple, so you should use purple, red and orange with Ghoulia.
Pink and Green go very well together also, so use Draculaura with the green.

I would get some more shades of the green and orange, it'll look so awesome when you are done!

Have you ever seen the homestuck trolls? Their color scheme is grey and orange gradient, they look really nice.

The other color I have is olive green and I was liking that for Ghoulia. The neon green might work for Draculara for an eyesore raver look but if I can find enough black somewhere I might do the Frankies as raver twins with mostly black and neon streaks.

I'm on the lookout for color hair clips and extensions or halloween wigs to harvest. Enough black on the Frankie twins and the neon could be streaks like with Draculara. Black up a Frankie and a Ghoulia and the three of them could be on to something...
