Perfect Your Shade

The Colour Guide

Achieving a flawless, undetectable blend starts with the perfect colour match. Natural hair contains multiple tones and dimensions that cannot always be accurately captured on screen. Lighting, photography, monitor settings, and device displays can all affect how colours appear.

Photograph in Natural Light

Take photos of your hair in natural daylight, ideally near a window or outdoors. Avoid flash, filters, and artificial lighting, as these can distort the true colour of your hair.

Consider Your Ends

Extensions blend with the mid-lengths and ends of your hair, not the roots. For the most seamless result, match your extensions to this area, especially if your hair has highlights, balayage, or grown-out colour.

Order a Sample

We strongly recommend ordering a Texture & Colour Match Sample before purchasing a full set. This allows you to compare colours in person and experience the texture and quality before making your investment.

Please Note: Due to differences in lighting, photography, screen settings, and individual perception, colours may vary slightly from what is displayed online. For the most accurate match, we recommend ordering a Texture & Colour Match Sample.

DVH Recommendation

Always order a colour sample first. It's a small step that ensures a perfect match and complete confidence in your purchase.
