How to match eyebrow color to gray hair: tips from beauty experts

Gray hair is finally no longer considered something that needs to be hidden and dyed – you can proudly wear your naturally gray hair and feel great. But to get the most out of this look, you need to choose the right eyebrow color.

According to beauty experts interviewed by In Style magazine, when gray hair appears, you will have to change the colors of your eyebrow products to look natural. If you use the same cosmetics as before, they will stand out too much on the face. So experts told us what to do to choose the right eyebrow color for gray hair.

Why you shouldn't neglect your eyebrows

Your eyebrows usually have a slightly different color from the hair on your head. This is because hairs in different areas lose melanin at different rates. Nevertheless, you shouldn't leave your eyebrows gray if these changes have begun there. For a natural look, they should be tinted to emphasize the eyes and make them more open.

Consider your skin tone

When it comes to finding the right eyebrow color to match your gray hair, don't underestimate your natural skin tone. If you have a cool skin tone, choose neutral shades of mascaras, lipsticks, and eye shadows. Too warm will contrast strongly with the face, and too cold will make it look sickly. Instead, soft colors give the eyebrows a beautiful, natural look.

Those with warm skin should go for lighter shades of eyebrow products, such as gray-brown, dark blond, and rich brown tones. They will complement skin tones as they are in the same warm range that ranges from peach to yellow and gold.

Take out old photos

Do you want to choose your eyebrow tone as accurately as possible? Your photos with your natural hair color will help you with this. Take a closer look at the darkest strands. And buy products that are 1-2 shades darker. As we age, most of us need more expressive features on our faces to make them look younger. And nothing will help with this better than your natural shade.

For blondes

If you have naturally light hair, graying eyebrows can "disappear" from your face. To put them back in place, use products with soft to medium light colors. But avoid too ashy, warm, or dark shades.

For brunettes

One of the easiest eyebrow colors for gray hair is natural chestnut. The choice of products in this range is the widest. Natural brunettes can also use brown pencils and powders for eyebrows with a touch of gray. But avoid products with too many blue undertones in them. And don't make your eyebrows too dark.

For redheads

Usually, chestnut or reddish-brown tones are the most suitable for redheads. Red eyebrow products can create the impression of artificiality and excessiveness. It is better to give preference to the gray-brown range of shades.
