"My wife wanted to go platinum but was nervous. Showed her the preview on her own photo and she booked the appointment that day."

"A client wanted "strawberry blonde" but her definition and mine were totally different. This tool got us on the same page in seconds."

What Is Brown Hair Filter?

A brown hair filter lets you preview different brown hair shades — from warm caramel to deep espresso — on your own photo before coloring, so you can find the exact shade that complements your skin tone without trial and error at the salon.

Why Choose This Tool

Choose the Right Brown for Your Complexion

Brown comes in dozens of variations. Warm tones like caramel flatter different skin types than cool tones like mocha. Preview both before deciding.

See Depth and Dimension

Brown hair shades create different visual depth depending on your natural color. The preview shows how each shade adds dimension to your look.

Bring a Reference to Your Colorist

Download the shade you like most and use it as a reference during your salon visit to avoid vague descriptions like 'warm brown.'

Not All Browns Are Equal — Find Yours First

Chocolate and chestnut sound similar but look completely different on dark versus light skin tones. A caramel brown that glows on one person can appear flat on another. Instead of describing your ideal shade to a colorist and hoping for the best, preview each specific brown tone on your actual photo and walk in with a clear reference image.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between chestnut and chocolate brown?

Chestnut brown has warm, reddish undertones and typically appears brighter in light. Chocolate brown is deeper and richer with less red, giving a fuller, darker result.

Can I preview brown shades on already-colored hair?

Yes. The filter works on your current hair color regardless of what it is — natural or dyed — and shows how the selected brown shade would appear as a result.

Does the filter work if I have very light hair?

Yes. The preview is accurate across all starting hair colors, including light blonde, so you can see the transformation from light to dark brown clearly.
