I believe you need to use the "titlesec" package. Here is the code that
I used to colourise the section and subsection commands:
\titleformat*{\section}{\Large\bf\color{clrheadings}}
\titleformat*{\subsection}{\large\bf\color{clrheadings}}
This is the documentation on the package:
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/titlesec/titlesec.pdf
Now when you use \section or \subsection then they will use the
perscribed style you defined.
This is a good faq that I use regarding your question:

Or in general look at for future questions:
