Eyebrow Tint Colour Guide: How to Pick Your Shade

Brow tint is a bit like a haircut: the wrong shade stands out for weeks. This eyebrow tint colour guide helps you match your brows to your colouring before you sit in the chair.

Start With Your Hair Colour

Your hair is a natural reference point. Most people suit a tint within one shade of it, so brunettes look polished in soft chocolate and blondes in warm taupe.

Brows a touch lighter than dark hair keep the face looking open, while a touch deeper than blonde hair adds definition without harshness. Greying or very dark hair is the exception, where a slightly softer brow is more flattering than an exact match.

Consider Your Skin Tone

Still wondering “what colour eyebrow tint should I get?” Undertone matters as much as hair. Warm skin looks best with golden or auburn browns, and cool skin suits ash and neutral browns. Fair skin can look overpowered by anything too dark, so go softer than you think.

Test the Look Before You Commit

Tint develops differently on every hair type, so the shade on a swatch rarely matches the finished result exactly. A trained brow artist can judge how long to leave the tint on to deepen or soften the result.
