A Guide to Choosing Frames for Hair Colour

Hair colour is another factor to consider when choosing your glasses frames.

If you’re not sure which way to go with the colour of your new frames, let us help you.

Brown Hair

HAIR Brown

Brown hair will look great with dark coloured frames – black, brown, burgundy, dark green. Warm hues are best. For people with dark brown hair, bright colours such as bright red, blue, or yellow can offer a stunning pop of colour and contrast. For lighter brown hair, choose more earthy tones.

Blonde Hair

Most colours can be worn if you have blonde hair – particularly if you have light blonde hair. Bright colours will look great, as will cool pastels – blues, greys and shades of white. If you are more of a golden blonde, check out a tortoise-shell style, or earthy colours. Black frames are also a good choice for blondes.

Grey Hair

Grey hair looks superb with bright colours – especially if your hair is a light grey or white. Cool colours and pastels will also contrast well. If you’d prefer more simple tones, you can pair your grey hair with black or metal frames.

Black Hair

HAIR Black

Black hair will match almost any colour frame – bright, dark, pastels, or simple black, white or grey. Patterned frames will also complement black hair. Avoid brown tones, unless it’s a tortoise-shell design, which will look good if there are black accents within the frame.

Red Hair

HAIR Red

Red, orange or green frames are a fantastic match for red hair. You can choose bright colours or dark and earthy tones. Classic black, white or grey will also look great.
