The Final Verdict:
Color my Facebook is a nice Chrome extension which you can use to change Facebook color with any technical skills. But the color combination doesn’t look as good as the default one. Moreover, you can apply only solid colors; no shades are there; no gradient effects and all. It could give a customized look to your Facebook account, but again it depends how creatively you can apply colors to produce the right color contrasts in your account. Otherwise you may end up making your Facebook look unpleasant.
