Jet black

Your skin tone is a crucial factor when choosing a black hair dye. For example, if you have light skin and are looking to dye your hair jet black, you may want to choose something other than the L’Oréal Paris Colorista Semi-Permanent Hair Dye in Blackest Black. It has a lot of blue undertones and will make your face appear paler than it really is.

In contrast, if you have dark skin and are looking for the deepest shade possible without going too blue or green on your face, the Garnier Olia Oil Powered Permanent Liquid Haircolor in Darkest Brown is a great choice because its formula contains rich brown pigments that mimic natural sun exposure and blend seamlessly into darker complexions.

Natural black

• Natural black

Natural black hair dye is the best option for you if you’re looking for a subtle change. It provides the deepest, darkest color possible without being overly dramatic or obvious. If your natural hair color is close to black already and you just want to darken it slightly, this is the dye for you. Even better, it’s easy to apply and doesn’t require any mixing or blending—just follow the instructions on your box!

Darkest brown

If you have dark brown hair, this shade is ideal for you. If you have dark skin tones, it’s also a great choice. The color will look warm and rich on your skin tone, giving off a healthy glow that can’t be replicated by other black hair dye.

Natural brown

If you have a medium skin tone, and want to go one or two shades darker, then this is the black hair dye for you. It has a nice warm undertone that will give your hair the richness it needs without making it look too orange or red.

This shade looks best on dark brown or black hair. If you have lighter natural color, we recommend that you first use a semi-permanent color like L’Oréal Paris Excellence Crème Gloss in Intense Black (for light brown to dark blonde hair) or Garnier Olia Oil Powered Permanent Haircolor in Rich Brown (for light brown to medium golden blond).

Make sure to find out what shade of black is good for you.

Hair color is a personal preference. You have to think about your skin tone, hair type, and hair color all at once when making this decision. Don’t forget to consider your lifestyle and hair maintenance needs.

A lot of people choose black because it’s the easiest shade to maintain (it doesn’t need as much upkeep).
