Have you ever wanted to add vibrant colors to your hair, but don’t change for fear of commitment or causing damage to your already fragile hair? The trick is to use high-quality hair extensions that blend seamlessly with your natural hair color. No matter what your dream hairstyle is — balayage, ombre, or bold, vibrant highlights — there is a simple way to achieve it with hair extensions.
Hair extensions won’t damage your hair, unlike harsh chemicals or bleach. If you already have damaged hair from previous dyeing, hair extensions will add volume and depth for a stylish look while giving your hair enough time to regenerate. They are also a simple way to try new shades without a long-term color commitment.

If you already have highlights, lowlights, or a smooth color transition and you just want to extend the time between hair coloring appointments, hair extensions will not only add length to your hair but also refresh your hair color without additional salon appointment. Also, whenever you want to glam up for a special occasion, you can create vibrant and voluminous hair using clip-in hair extensions (preferably made of 100% human hair).

When choosing clip-in extensions that will match your hair color, focus on the shade of your hair from the chin down to the ends of your hair. Only choose extensions that match the color of your hair’s roots if you are intentionally growing out your natural color.
Hair strands may have multiple shades; in that case, you need two or three shades to blend with your hair naturally. If you can’t decide between different shades, the best option is to order hair swatches in the range closest to your hair color to try shades out. You can get blonde, brunette, red shades, or a full-color ring.
Try the swatches until you find the one that beautifully blends with your hair’s shades. Overlap the swatches to the bottom of your hair to get an accurate match, then snap a few photos with each swatch to get a better look.
Dyeing extensions is not recommended but you may use gentle toners and purple shampoos to fix brassy tones. Dyeing your hair to match the extensions is also an option. It is best to use semi- or demi- permanent dyes that are designed to tone your hair one or two shades lighter or darker.
Deciding on what hair extensions are the most suitable for your natural hair can be challenging. Thankfully, you can ask a professional’s opinion online. Therefore, the first step towards a gorgeous hair makeover using extensions is finding a color-matching expert to help you determine which shades and lengths are best for your hair.
To get the most of your consultation, snap a few photos and email them to your hair extension stylist. Here is what we ask for at Cashmere Hair and something we recommend to everyone regardless of their extension brand:
After you send the photos, the color-matching expert will contact you to ask a few follow-up questions just to make sure you purchase the perfect extensions for your natural hair.
