Colored eyes wouldn’t even match most people esp light colored ones imagine a Bantu with green contacts or a Dravidian with blue tanned skin to is mostly dependent on pheno considering the fact that pheno decides what color ur skin is some people just can’t tan n some people r just too dark to reach that golden like tan

What is coloring?

If you've been in this community for a while, or even more than a few weeks, feel free to skip this section.

Coloring refers to the overall palette of your features, your skin tone, hair color, and eye color, and how they work together.

I’ve added an example using a friend of mine below, creating a palette of colors from his face.
Being able to visualize a palette like this is nice to have on hand, although its clearly visible based on first glance.
View attachment 4068370View attachment 4068372

Coloring can impact how striking & sometimes how masculine you look, higher contrast features will give off a more striking & masculine look,
while lower contrast features will give a less intimidating and submissive look.

I need to clarify, bones will do more work than coloring when it comes to how masculine you look, but coloring sure as hell helps.


View attachment 4068374View attachment 4068378

Above I’ve included men with different coloring, neither are considered insanely attractive, so coloring plays a large role in the difference of attractiveness/masculinity between these two.

_______________________________________________________________________________

Understanding Contrast

Contrast is the difference between your natural colors: hair, skin, and eyes.
– High contrast: striking differences between features
– Low contrast: colors are closer together and blend more
Having low contrast can affect your dimorphism a lot, affecting how masculine you look & how intimidating others find you.

Low Contrast
View attachment 4068394
Here I’ve included people of different phenotypes, with a low contrast level,
you can see in Example #1 that the man has dark hair, dark skin & dark eyes, and in Example #2 the man has light skin, light hair & light eyes.

Medium Contrast
View attachment 4068402
Now I’ve included two photos of men with medium contrast, Example #1 has medium-dark skin, with dark eyes & hair, Example #2 has white skin, but has light brown hair, and brown eyes. Majority of people in the world fit into this category of having medium contrast, you’ll see people with coloring depicted above nearly everywhere you go, meaning that while it’s not considered a bad thing to have medium contrast, its not considered a good thing either.

High Contrast
View attachment 4068404
Above I’ve depicted a man with high contrast, dark hair & eyebrows paired with icy blue eyes, on light skin. The coloring combo depicted above is regarded as “perfect” by many users due to it being the highest contrast you can have while still looking appealing (a black man with blonde hair & ice blue eyes would have higher contrast, but its unrealistic and unappealing)

The ideal coloring is usually a combination that creates the most striking and balanced contrast without looking unnatural, this makes your face look more appealing, and is generally an amazing feature to have.

Some examples are shown below
View attachment 4068425

Your goal should be to have medium-high contrast, high contrast is usually never a bad thing but in some rare cases can look bad.
You'll find out how to optimize your coloring later in this thread.

Optimizing YOUR Coloring.


_______________________________________________________________________________


Hair

_______________________________________________________________________________

The color of your hair determines a very significant amount of your appearance, and should also determine the colors of clothes you wear, and why you wear them.

For a majority of the white-skinned users on this forum, dyeing your hair to brown, dark brown or black from blonde or light brown will instantly ascend you. I’ve created a morph below to depict this, If you aren’t HTN+ then theres no real reason for you to have blonde hair

View attachment 4068569

“But girls on tiktok say they love blonde haired men!”
No, they like htns who just happen to have blonde hair.

If you do plan on rocking blonde hair regardless of me telling you not to,
then having darker colored eyebrows is a necessity (even the blond htn+’s don’t deny this)

View attachment 4068570

You can dye both your hair and eyebrows using the exact same hair dye, go to any supermarket and they’ll have it.


If you dye your eyebrows, I’d suggest leaving the dye on for around 30% of the amount the package suggests for your hair, if you don’t do this then the hair dye will dye the skin behind your eyebrows aswell, making your eyebrows look ethnic and a lot darker than they should be (unless you want this to happen, then be my guest)
You can usually get rid of that effect after a few showers though, assuming you wash your face.

_______________________________________________________________________________


Eyes

_______________________________________________________________________________

Your eye color is for the most part there forever, unless you want to get stroma (laser eye surgery, theres another guide on what this is and how to determine if you want to get it or not in the BOTB).

There are guides about eye lightening aswell using tons of formulas, but from personal experience its far too complicated for the “result” (usually placebo) that you get, every “natural” eye color changing method that isnt laser or surgery is cope.

What you can do however is use colored contacts to fraud your eye color, keep in mind that keeping colored contacts in daily will irritate your eyes.
(they irritated mine, depending on the quality of contacts you get you might experience similar results)

Here’s some tips to consider if you do decide to go down the colored contact route though:

- If you have purple/blue eyebags, remember that blue contacts can make your eyebags stand out even more.
View attachment 4068574

Base your contacts off your skin color, look at your skin and compare it with this, is your skin more golden/warm, or is it white/pale?
If your skin is in the golden/warm category, hazel & brown eyes will suit your coloring more.
If your skin is in the white/pale category, green, blue & grey eyes will usually suit your coloring more.

_______________________________________________________________________________


Style

_______________________________________________________________________________

Your seasonal color palette should 100% determine what you wear.

Wearing colors from your palette will instantly ascend your outfits and compliment your face so much, I know everyone on here is gonna bitch about how “style is cope, just be chad” but realistically everyone who says that is sub60iq and close-minded.

Style matters a lot, it affects your social status, and having good social status is a super important halo when talking to women (if you’re popular more women will want you, duh)

Here’s how you can determine the palette you should have:

Check your undertone:

Cool undertones: Skin has pink, red, or blue hues. Veins appear blue or purple. Silver jewelry looks better than gold.
Warm undertones: Skin has yellow, golden, or peach hues. Veins appear green. Gold jewelry looks better than silver.

Hair and eye color:

Dark hair + light skin + bright eyes > Winter.
Light hair + light skin + soft eyes > Summer.
Red, auburn, or golden hair + warm skin > Autumn.
Light golden hair + warm skin + bright eyes > Spring.

Additional things that I’ve tried myself:

Grab different colors & tones of clothes, hold them up to your face in a mirror, and check if they brighten your face, or if it dulls some colors of your face out, this isn’t as effective as choosing up there

Once you’ve determined your palette, you can search up outfit inspiration on pinterest, or use this graph as inspiration for what colors you should look for in clothes:

_______________________________________________________________________________

TLDR

Heres your TLDR you lazy little goblins (provided by chatgpt, I'm not writing a TLDR of my own thread)

Coloring is your skin, hair, and eye colors working together, and contrast, the difference between them affects how striking or masculine you look. Darker hair usually boosts contrast for white-skinned men, while eye color is mostly permanent. Your seasonal palette; Winter, Spring, Summer & Autumn should guide clothing choices. Figure it out by checking undertones, hair, and eyes, and test clothes against your face. Wearing the right colors makes your features pop and your outfits look sharper.
I really suggest reading the whole thread though.

You forgot to mention lip color

Slightly pink lips increase contrast as well.

Women exploit this by wearing bright red lipstick even
