We get it, it’s daunting to invest in clip-in hair extensions without being sure you’re picking the right one…
We want your experience to be as stress-free as possible, which is why we offer a free colour match service. All you need to do is pop us an email at info@frontrow.co.za with an image or two of your hair in natural light from behind and our team will assist you with a colour match.
Or you can just click that little speech bubble at the bottom right corner of your screen to chat to the team!
Here’s a quick guide for the best way to take your colour match photos:
- Have someone take them for you, it’s much easier than struggling to get that angle yourself.
- Make sure you are in a natural light setting - not direct sunlight and not in artificial overhead lighting.
- If it’s for a hair extensions colour match, be sure to have all your hair behind you. If it’s for bangs, the images would be of the front of your face/hair.
The reason colour matching correctly is so important is that we don’t recommend altering the colour of the extensions after purchasing. While they are 100% Remy human hair extensions, they are not made from Virgin hair - meaning they have already undergone a colouring process to get them to that specific colour. Colouring your extensions will shorten their lifespan considerably - they will become dry and brittle very quickly and might break off.
When it comes to matching your hair to our clip-in hair extensions, it’s a different process for each product - for example, for full sets of hair extensions, we need to look at the colour of the ends of your hair. Whereas for a clip-in ponytail, it’s important to look at the middle part of the back of your hair. But don’t stress, our expert team is fully equipped to help you with this.
If you’re looking at a full set of extensions, there’s also the decision of which thickness (or weight) to go for. We have three thicknesses available in our full sets of extensions, yay! You’ll receive 8 wefts regardless of the thickness selected. Here is a breakdown of each weight:
120g - We recommend our 120g sets for our customers with very fine hair looking for mainly length. This option will not really provide you with thickness. This thickness is not recommended if you have shorter hair, i.e a bob.
160g - This is our medium thickness option which blends with fine or medium hair. This option is wonderful if you have fine hair and you’re looking for extra fullness. If you have medium hair, this option should provide you with a natural blend.
220g - Our 220g sets are most popular, these blend with fine, medium or thicker hair. This option provides you with celebrity-like volume, the reason why it blends with most hair thicknesses is because you’ll have 8 wefts to play around with so you can wear more or less pieces depending on your hair. Should your hair be shorter, this is the ideal option.
If you’re still unsure which weight would work for you, just tap that chat bubble at the bottom of the screen and our team will assist you.
We know the process can be daunting, but that’s why we’re here to help you - we want you to feel 100% confident and sure of your decision and, trust us, you won’t regret it when you walk away with your dream hair!
