Your hair is capable of adding a wow factor to your look but can also turn you into a disaster real quick because they do—significantly—define your overall appearance! From subtly highlighted strands to sexy balayage; consider the influence of your hair color before clicking on the BUY NOW button.
But before moving on to finding the right specs-match for your hair color, find the right pair for your face shape. Let’s dive deeper into solving the chemistry of your hair color and the right pair of eyeglasses.
1. Eyeglasses For Black Hair
Proud of your ebony locks? Black hair means you’ll look great in any metallic frame like gunmetal black, grey, gold, or copper. What else suits black hair? Well, simple classic shapes like squares, rounds, and rectangles in tortoiseshell, blue and dark green – which will also add the perfect contrast to your face regardless of your skin tone.
Depending on your skin tone, bright and saturated colors like blue, maroon and purple will certainly make a statement.
What To Avoid:
Pale and ashy colors that may appear washed out against your dark hair.

2. Eyeglasses For Amber Or Red Strands
Quite uncommon to spot a Redhead around us but if you are someone with painted strands or the tips in shades of red then choose warm metal shades like gold and copper. Lighter tones of red will also pair perfectly with modern and odd spectacle frames like hexagons and pentagons in blue, black, green, tortoiseshell, and even transparent. The only catch is that you first find your skin tone and its matching shades to rightly wear and pair.
What To Avoid:
Yellow or ashy tones as they may infuse a bit of dullness to your overall look.

3. Eyeglasses For Light Brown And Coffee-colored Hair
Tortoiseshell glasses complement the rich hues and lighter tones like hazel or beige in your browned hair. Metal shades like bronze and other warm-colored tints will also pair well. Luckily, your hair color allows you to choose eyeglass frames from reds, greens, burgundy, purples and rich browns. In case your hair reflects more ashy shades of brown like mahogany, umber, burnt sienna then go for the ever-trending black glasses that have always been the rage.
What To Avoid:
Steer clear off pastel shades like peach and pink to save yourself from producing a blunder of a look.

4. Glasses For Grey Hair
Graying naturally? Or perhaps you dyed your hair to get that on-trend salt and pepper look. I bet you dyed it gray, didn’t you?
Your salt n’ pepper look will really pop with bright and bold colors. Rich and deep shades of brown, blue, red, purple and tortoiseshell will instantly take your look to the next level.
People with dark grey hair can have some fun with metal-styled eyeglass frames in warm tones like silver.
What To Avoid:
Try to steer away from yellow, gold, beige or brown tones that can have a dulling effect or even clash with your color.

5. Eyeglasses For Blue, Pink And Lavender Hair
Play to the vibrancy of your hair color with bold shades and unique rims. The experimental folks with balayage in shades of blue can go for darker shades of tortoiseshell, grey, black and blue. The tried and tested shades would neither overwhelm your face nor detract from the actual look. But if you succeed in finding the right pair, it may balance out the most striking features of your face.
What To Avoid:
Light or pastel shades.
