Deepen your brows to match dark hair \u2014 but don’t go too far<\/h2>\n

If you’ve ever used a brow product that was a shade or two (or three) too dark, you already know that this can result in an overly dramatic and unbalanced look. Hello,\u00a0the “brow blindness” concept that TikTok warned us about. And when you’re making the move to dark hair, it’s that much easier to fall into the bold-brow trap. After all, you don’t want to keep pale or mousy eyebrows that clash with your sultry new tresses, right?\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Yes and no. “If you go dark, you may want to deepen your brow color,” MUA Caroline Hernandez exclusively tells Glam, but warns that this doesn’t mean jumping straight into extreme shades. Contrary to popular belief, dark hair colors like black or chestnut don’t require an exact color dupe to achieve natural-looking brows. “If you dye your hair black, for instance, you may not want to match your brows this dark. Not many people have naturally black eyebrows …”<\/p>\n

No, seriously \u2014 take a second look at someone you know with inherently dark hair. Hernandez is willing to bet that their brows are more of a deep chocolate than a pure ebony. “Very dark brows will usually be a very dark shade of brown, and I would suggest following nature here and not going jet black \u2014 unless, of course, it’s a statement of your style. Dark brown will come across as black, but will flatter more,” she suggests.<\/p>\n

Pair light hair with warm, mid-tone brows for a natural appearance<\/h2>\n

Just as there’s such a thing as too dark, there’s such a thing as too light \u2014 and apparently, brow colors are all about striking a happy medium. So, whether you’re just refreshing your look with highlights or going for a stark bottle blond, you probably don’t want to jump straight to super-bleached brows. As makeup artist Caroline Hernandez advises, “Bringing the eyebrows down in color can create a softer look with light hair \u2014 and this applies to all skin tones.”<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Light browns and rich, sandy blonds are among the safest bets. “If you have a deep skin tone, you probably don’t want to go platinum, but a few shades lighter than natural can really work with lighter hair and give an overall cohesive and soft look,” says Hernandez. “Even light brown can look very pretty and add a softness to the look of your brows.” Those trying out ginger locks should follow a similar rule of thumb, opting for toasty mid-tones over bright-copper brows. “You may want to add warmth to your brows to complement the look, or perhaps lighten the brows a few shades if you are dark naturally,” Hernandez explains exclusively to Glam. Happily, there are winning red hair colors for every skin undertone.<\/p>\n

If you’re still not sure which shade will suit your new ‘do, Hernandez suggests playing with tinted brow products to test different looks without fully committing. “For colored brow gels, I love Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Gel \u2014 and these come in travel sizes if you just want to experiment. Diorshow On Set Brow colored brow gel is a favorite, too … this one also adds volume to the brow, which is great news for a lot of people.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
