But while you have naturally gorgeous eyes, finding the right hair color for green eyes can be pretty daunting. The good news is we’ve already compiled some of the best hair colors for green eyes in this article, so keep on reading!
What to Consider When Choosing the Best Hair Color for Your Green Eyes?
Before we reveal to you the exciting hair shades that we’ve found, let us first explore the other important consideration that can help you choose the right hair color. It’s no other than your skin tone.
If you don’t know your skin tone, the first step would be to identify your skin tone. To determine your skin tone, inspect your wrist under the sunlight.
If the veins seem purplish or bluish, you have a warm undertone, while a greenish color indicates a cool undertone. If you can’t exactly tell what shade it is, you have a neutral skin tone.
Now that you know your skin tone let’s identify the suitable hair color for each skin tone. Here are a few examples:
- Cool Skin Tone: Blondes, Reds, Browns
- Warm Skin Tone: Blondes, Browns, and Crimson
- Neutral Skin Tone: Blondes, Browns, Rich Auburn, and Copper
