So which pencil color should you choose ?
In this article, we’ll dive into simple and effective methods for changing the color of your eyebrows. We’ll also look at how to identify warm and cool tones, so you can choose the ideal shade to enhance your eyes.
Color is the human visual perception of the spectral distribution of light. We will divide these colors into two groups and study their reflections with :
– warm or golden tones
– cool or ashen tones
The color of eyebrows is very often the same as that of the natural hairline, but we tend to think of ourselves as browner and paler than we really are.
Black, brown, light or dark chestnut, red, auburn, Venetian blond, gray… the palette of natural hair colors is extremely diverse.
So we’re going to classify cool and warm tones by visual category, so you can refer to your own tones.
