How to Choose Extension Colour

Master the art of colour matching with our expert guide. With 36 professional colours available, find your perfect match.

The Golden Rule of Colour Matching

Match your extensions to the MID-LENGTHs and ENDS of your hair - not just your roots!

Why Match to Mid-Lengths?

Your roots are typically darker than the rest of your hair due to new growth and sun exposure. The mid-lengths and ends show your true base colour.

Since halo extensions sit around your head and your natural hair falls over them, the blend area is in the mid-lengths - not at the roots!

Quick Reference:

  • ✓ Match to mid-lengths & ends
  • ✗ Don't match to root colour
  • ✓ Consider highlights/balayage
  • ✓ Test in natural lighting

Step-by-Step Colour Matching

1

Gather Your Tools

Find a well-lit area with natural daylight. Grab a mirror and our colour swatch guide (if available) or reference photos.

2

Check Your Mid-Lengths & Ends

Look at the middle section of your hair (not the roots). This is your "true colour" that the extension should match.

3

Consider Your Highlights

If you have highlights or balayage, choose an extension with those tones. For multi-tonal hair, match to the dominant shade.

4

Test in Natural Light

Hold potential swatches next to your hair in natural daylight. Artificial lighting can distort colours significantly.
