Dark Brown Hair Color
They say some haircuts suit oval faces better and some suit round faces better. Just like the face type is a criterion for a specific haircut, there are some important things which need to be considered before trying any hair coloring ideas for your hair. A person's eye color and complexion is taken into consideration when coloring the hair, whether it is a base color or highlights for hair. When these are not taken into consideration, a person may end up coloring their hair in a color which makes their complexion look either too dull or too bright. Below are some tips on how to color your hair brown, the shades which will suit you, and some ideas to get suitable highlights for brown hair.
Coloring Your Hair Brown
If you have naturally brown hair then you are lucky but for those who want to color their hair dark brown, there are many options. You can divide people into tow categories depending on their skin tones and eye color; these categories are cool and warm. One needs to select their brown hair color base according to the category they belong to.
People who fall in the cool hair category should opt for shades of brown like deep coffee brown and medium ash brown. People who fall in this category have skin tones like dark brown, olive complexion (Asians and Latinos), medium complexion with light pink color in the cheeks or no color, medium complexion and golden undertones, pale complexion with pink undertones or no color, or bronze or brown complexion after tanning. The eye color can be grayish blue, dark blue, dark brown or hazel colored with light flecks.
People with brown hair who fall in the warm category are deep brown shades or strawberry brown shades. People who fall in warm category have skin tone with freckled complexion, pale complexion with peach or golden undertones, brown skin tone with pink or golden undertones or ruddy complexion. The eyes can be hazel with brown or golden colored flecks, greenish-blue eyes, golden brown eyes or green eyes. You can get your hair dyed in brown shade from a beauty salon, or you can dye the hair yourself using a hair coloring kit. Now let us take a look at the highlights which match this color.
Highlights to Match the Brown Hair
There are many choices among highlights for dark brown hair. If you are looking for highlight shade, some shades which look good on people who fall in the cool category are honey, wheat or ash colors; they should avoid any blonde or yellow highlight colors. People who come in the warm category should opt for highlights like copper streaks, golden-brown streaks or blonde highlights.
Styling Your Brown Hair
There are various ways to style your brown hair. Even plain straight long hair with brown hair color and highlights with a middle parting, can look stunning. Depending upon the length of the hair, you can try out different haircuts like bob, layers, razor cut, etc. You can get your hair styled wavy or straight, or for a fun look style half of your hair wavy and straighten the other half. You can opt for some side bangs to give your haircut a soft look, or cut your front hair section into a blunt straight fringe for a bold look.
Make sure you use a shampoo and conditioner for hair care, which are made especially for colored hair, to maintain your hair color for a longer duration. So, get your hair colored brown or add some nice highlights to your naturally brown hair and enjoy your new look!
