If you are going to be dying your hair brunette you want to do everything that you can to get the perfect dye job. One of the most exciting things about dying your hair brunette is that there are so many different shades to choose from. To get the best-looking hair you will want to select the shade that is right for you.

One of the first things to consider when choosing your hair color shade is your skin tone. If you are not sure about your skin tone you can ask a hair stylist about what shade will work best for you. A general rule of thumb is that people with fair skin should stick to the warmer shades of brown, such as honey or copper browns. If you have fair skin you will want to avoid the darker shades of brown because they will make your skin look pale or even washed out.

Medium skin tones look best with a chestnut color. You can also add highlights to the chestnut color. If you opt to go with highlights, go for a golden color because it will bring out your skin. Golden browns also look great with medium skin tones because the golden color brings out any bronze skin tones you might have.
