How To Choose Your Beard Colour
If your hair is naturally dark, go a shade or two lighter.
If your hair is already dark, you want to make sure that the beard colour doesn’t look unnatural.
The best way to do this is by going with a lighter shade of beard colour. It will add contrast and definition to your face. For example, if you have black hair and choose an orange beard colour, it will look like two different parts of your body!
If you have light brown hair, try using one of the lighter tones like blonde or red so the contrast between head and facial hair isn’t too harsh on people looking at it from far away (like in photos).
If your natural hair colour is very light, go with a dark brown or black, to add shadow and definition to your face.
If your natural hair colour is very light, go with a dark brown or black, to add shadow and definition to your face. A dark beard colour can work even if you have light skin and blue eyes. Dark colours add contrast, which creates more definition in the face.
A dark beard colour can look more natural than a lighter one because it will blend in better with your skin tone (which is darker). This can be helpful if you have patchy growth on part of your face, as it will help hide these inconsistencies when they show up under the sunlight. Finally, people often associate maturity with having a darker hair colour or grey streaks in their head – so if this is something that appeals to you then getting yourself some stubble might not be such a bad idea!
Choose a colour that complements your eye and hair colour. For example, blonde hair and blue eyes go well with blonde facial hair.
As you can see, your eye and hair colour will determine the type of beard colour that best complements your face. If you have light skin and blue eyes, an orange or red beard would be a great option for you. For example, this man has blonde hair and blue eyes:
If your skin is darker than average and you have green eyes, it might be best to try a pastel or light brown color on the sides of your face. You could also go with a dark brown or black chin tuft:
If medium-skinned people with brown eyes like the look of their natural facial hair but want to experiment with some colours while still maintaining their style, they could try a light orange or medium brown beard:
Go for a warmer tone if you have cool undertones. This can include red or strawberry blondes.
If you have cool undertones, go for a warmer tone. This can include red or strawberry blondes. If you have warm undertones, stick to cooler tones like black and blonde.
Remember: the right color will make your beard look healthier by reflecting light better.
Keep in mind that if your skin is naturally lighter than your beard hair then going too light will be unflattering and unnatural looking (same goes for darker skin tones).
Choose a lighter tone or a pastel hue if you have warm undertones.
If you have warm undertones, you can pick a lighter tone or a pastel hue for your facial hair. Pastel colors look good on people with light skin tones and light hair. They also work well for people who have blue or green eyes (because pastels are cool colors, which are complementary to warm shades).
Examples of different pastel facial hair colors include:
- Orange, copper and red-orange hues (which match up well with cool undertones)
- Pinkish-reds, deep pinks and brownish reds (which complement neutral skin)
- Light blues, lavenders and other light purples (which go well with pale complexions)
Choose the right shade of beard dye to complement your eye and skin colour.
When choosing the right color for your beard, it’s important to keep in mind that some shades will look better than others. For example, if you have a dark eye and skin tone, pastel or light colors may not look good on you. However, if you have pale blue eyes and a fair complexion, then these same tones may work well with your coloring.
To choose the right shade of dye for your beard:
- Consider what color eyes and skin tone you have.
- Look at photos of men who have been successful in using these colors before choosing one yourself!
