Human Hair Extension Colour Rings & Swatches
Choose your hair extension shade with greater confidence using our professional colour rings and swatches. Our range includes a full Remy human hair colour ring, ombre colour ring and individual colour samples for comparing shades in person before ordering hair extensions.
Colour rings are particularly useful for salons, hair extension professionals and customers who want to compare shades against the natural hair in different lighting conditions. For the best comparison, match primarily against the mid-lengths and ends of the hair rather than relying only on the root colour.

Colour rings and hair swatches allow extension shades to be compared in person before ordering. They are particularly useful for salons, extension professionals and customers who want to compare several similar shades side by side.
Physical samples can also help when screen brightness, photography and different lighting conditions make online colours appear slightly different.
Different colour-matching products are useful for different purposes. Choose the option that best matches the shades you want to compare.
A full colour ring is ideal for comparing a wide selection of HairXtensions shades during client consultations or before placing an extension order.
Holding several nearby shades against the natural hair can make it easier to identify the closest match.
Ombre shades contain more than one colour through the extension length, so seeing a physical sample can be particularly helpful when comparing the colour transition.
Compare both the upper shade and the lighter or contrasting lengths when choosing an ombre option.
Individual samples can be useful when comparing specialist silver and grey tones or when only a smaller selection of shades needs to be assessed.
Check the swatch alongside the natural hair in daylight where possible.
Hair extension colour is generally best compared against the mid-lengths and ends of the natural hair rather than selecting solely from the root colour.
If two shades appear close, compare both before making your final selection.
For the best comparison, hold the colour swatch against the mid-lengths and ends of the natural hair and check the shade in natural daylight where possible.
Screen settings, artificial lighting and photography can affect how colours appear online, which is why a physical colour ring can be particularly useful. You can also view our Hair Extension Colour Chart or use our Colour Match Guarantee for additional help.
Hair shades can appear warmer, cooler, lighter or darker depending on natural light, indoor lighting and surrounding colours. For this reason, avoid making a colour decision based on one lighting condition alone.
When using a colour ring, compare the shade in good natural daylight as well as the lighting in which the extensions will normally be seen.

Answers to common questions about hair extension colour rings, swatches and choosing your closest shade.
A hair extension colour ring contains physical hair samples that allow different extension shades to be compared directly against natural hair.
Colour rings are useful for salons, extension professionals and customers who want to compare physical shades before ordering hair extensions.
We recommend comparing extension shades primarily against the mid-lengths and ends of the natural hair, as this is where the extensions will blend through the finished style.
Root colour can be useful as a reference, but the mid-lengths and ends are generally more important when choosing the extension shade because this is where most of the extension hair will blend.
Natural daylight is usually the most useful environment for comparing hair extension colours. Artificial lighting can make shades appear warmer, cooler or different in depth.
Screen brightness, colour settings, photography and lighting can all affect how a hair shade appears online. A physical colour sample provides another way to compare the shade directly with the natural hair.
An ombre colour ring contains samples representing multi-tone extension shades where the colour changes through the length. It allows both parts of the shade combination to be viewed together.
Compare both shades against the mid-lengths and ends in natural daylight. You can also use our Colour Match Guarantee if you need further help choosing between shades.
