Why should my eyebrows match my hair?

Eyebrows are, of course, one of my favourite topics. There is so much you can do with them and the difference a brow can make to a face is always a joy to see. But should your eyebrows match your hair?

A lot of clients ask me if their eyebrows should match their hair colour and the short answer is yes - if that it is personal preference. It really depends on the look you're going for. Because your eyebrows are such a focal feature to your face, they can really make a difference when it comes to your overall look.

A darker eyebrow will always be more dramatic. Think of Marilyn Monroe with nearly black eyebrows and white blond hair. It can totally work with her look.

If you are after a more natural look, then matching your eyebrows to your hair will create a more subtle look. Or even going a bit lighter with your brows can be even softer again.

Trial and error is the most important thing to learn what will suit you and your features. There are no wrong or right colour combinations. Just want looks good.

Here is a quick video explaining what I mean.
