Choosing The Right Color of Hair Extensions

Style 1 of 16 · Clip in Hair Extension for Short Hair

When it comes to matching a color to your own hair, it is the middle and the tip of your natural hair that is important. The roots are often darker than the ends of your hair, and as the roots will be hidden when the extensions are clipped in, you should never match your extension to them. For a natural look make sure that the color of your extensions matches the tone of the end of your hair. If you are shopping in person for your extensions, always check the color in natural light where possible to make sure you get the best match possible. Furthermore, some online retailers will send out samples of their extensions, usually for a small fee, so you can try before you commit. TOP TIP: If you have a two-tone hair, such as an ombre of balayage style, mix and match two colors of hair extensions to get a multi-tonal effect.
