Understanding Your Starting Point

Consider your current hair color as the foundation of your style. Brunette locks? You’re blessed with a rich, versatile base. This deeper spectrum of shades is perfect for both subtle tints and jaw-dropping color makeovers.

The Role of Eye Color and Skin Tone in Selecting Your Hair Color

Selecting your ideal hair color involves playing up your personal features to create visual harmony or appealing contrast. Understanding the relationship between your eye color, skin tone, and hair color is key to achieving a look that’s both stunning and feels profoundly authentic.

Deep Red: A bold shade like Red for Brown Hair complements green eyes dramatically.

Bright Pink: Pink for Brown Hair is a pretty, face-framing hue for blue eyes.

HAZEL EYES WITH BROWN HAIR

Intense Red: Fiery shades like Red for Brown Hair play up amber and green tones in hazel eyes.

Orange & Warm Brown: Extreme Orange and Chocolate Brown were made for hazel eyes.

Identifying Your Skin’s Undertone

Whether your skin tone is light, medium, or deep, diving deeper into your undertone can dramatically influence your hair color choices, ensuring they complement your natural palette.

Begin by identifying your undertone—warm, cool, or neutral—by examining the veins in your wrist. Greenish veins suggest a warm undertone. If they appear blue or purple, your undertone leans cool. A combination of both indicates a neutral undertone.

Choosing a Hair Color Based on Your Skin Tone

  • Cool Skin Tones: Cool, ashier tones will minimize redness and complement your cooler complexion.  
  • Warm Skin Tones: Warm, rich tones will enhance your skin’s natural glow.
  • Neutral Skin Tones: You’re in a unique position to play with a wide range of colors, from the coolest tones to the warmest hues.

Remember, while your skin tone and eye color provide helpful guidelines, the ultimate goal is self-expression—finding a shade you love that makes you feel amazing.H

Brown is the king of hair color and it is possible to choose it in many shades. For example, a uniform brown is not recommended for those suffering from dark circles. Then, a brighter one is preferred, such as a caramel brown created with the balayage technique.
