My natural hair color is a very dark brown/black and my brow hairs are black, but recently I got my hair dyed to a medium brown color and I don't know what color to use when filling in my eyebrows. I have dyed my hair in the past but I have never dyed my roots before so I didn't have to worry about my dark black eyebrows looking off or weird. I mainly use powder to fill in my eyebrows but I was wondering if anybody has any suggestion of how I should fill in my eyebrows now? Thanks is advance!

I agree with Hailey. It's best to stay as close as possible to your natural brow colour.

I have naturally reddish-blonde hair and my eyebrows are really dark, but I still fill them in with a color that matches them because it would be really obvious, like Hailey said. I think dark brows and light hair look really striking :)

I'm not fond of the really dark brows, they can look too harsh.

But sometimes they can work you don't have to make them lighter per say.
If you went a medium brown then you most likely have more warmth to your hair then before and the black/coolness of your brows is contrasting too much so perhaps try getting a brow mascara that's a little lighter but quite warm toned.
You just want to... Match the tones, the depth doesn't matter too much.

For example, when my hair is more neutral or ash my brows look better taupe.

But when my hair is more yellow blonde/brassy I prefer a light warm brown colored brow.
When I where taupe they look muddy and very grey in comparison.

It depends on how much the color difference is. If it were me, I would probably prefer my brows to be one shade darker than my hair color if my hair color is light or medium. If my hair is really dark, I prefer one shade lighter. This is just my personal preference, I do like a small contrast between eye brow color & hair color. Again, personal preference.
