Brown hair goes with almost anything, so picking your wardrobe and accessories should be easy. Just follow these tips.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Accessorize your hair. Pick sparkly colorful hair jewels to liven it up. Introduce some highlights, such as blonde or chestnut, especially around the face, which will compliment your complexion. Your hairdresser should be able to advise you on this. Brown hair is usually thicker than fair hair, so make the most of it.

  2. Step 2

    Dress in bold colors like red on an evening out. Green also goes really well, especially if you have green eyes. Hold the dress up to your face. If your eyes twinkle and your skin appears to glow, you have picked the right color for you.

  3. Step 3

    Use pastel colors when you want a more casual look, with hints of orange and red. This will bring out the colors in your hair.

  4. Step 4

    Make your eyes sparkle by using a smoky brown base to your eye makeup and then use a layer of whichever color you want. See the website videojug.com for help in how to do this.

  5. Step 5

    Wear a glossy lip color. You can use a striking red as long as it doesn't clash with your dress.

Tips & Warnings
  • Experiment and have lots of fun. There really isn't anything you can't wear.
  • Don't mix powerful colors in both makeup and clothes. Pick one or the other.
