How to Choose the Perfect Hair Extension Colour Match (Even Online)

Finding your dream shade shouldn’t be a guessing game. When it comes to achieving flawless, natural-looking extensions, colour matching is everything — and at Amazing Hair, it’s an art form. Whether you’re shopping online or in-salon, our expert-developed shades make it easy to create a truly undetectable finish that moves and shines like your own hair.

The Art of a Perfect Match

Colour matching isn’t just about picking a tone that looks close — it’s about understanding undertones, light reflection, and depth. Hair colour is rarely one flat shade; it’s a mix of dimensions that shift subtly in natural light.

That’s why each Amazing Hair hue is crafted with multi-tonal dimension — soft highlights, balanced lowlights, and the kind of natural gradation found in healthy, sun-kissed hair. Whether you choose warm caramel, cool brunette, or icy blonde, every shade is designed by professional colourists to blend effortlessly into real hair tones.

Your Guide to Colour Matching at Home

Shopping online? Here’s how to confidently find your perfect shade without stepping into a salon.

1. Use Natural Light

Take a photo of your hair in indirect daylight (never under artificial lighting or direct sun). Focus on the mid-lengths and ends — that’s where your extensions will blend.

2. Match the Mid-Lengths, Not the Roots

Your roots are often darker than the rest of your hair. For the most natural finish, match your extensions to the middle section of your hair — it ensures a smooth transition and natural movement.

3. Compare with Multiple Angles

Hair catches light differently as it moves. Compare your photo to product images taken in similar lighting — Amazing Hair’s website shows each shade in high-definition for this reason.

4. When in Doubt, Go Slightly Lighter

If you’re between shades, choose the lighter one. Extensions can always be professionally toned or blended for a softer result.
