We value the artistry of hair custom color blending for a natural, seamless look, whether highlighting, coloring, or blending hair extensions with your hair.
Still, it takes special skills to care for custom-blended colors and textures for each client. At Hāste Urban Hair Spa, we match your hair characteristics with custom blending, as it is our passion.
So, why not make a difference to your hair today to achieve your desired shade?
What is Hair Custom Blending?
When discussing custom blending, it all comes down to color melting by mixing multiple colors, hair textures, highlights, and tones to your hair or extensions to match your style.
One of the main attractions at our salon is our expertly crafted hair extensions. Our stylists do not take shortcuts and invest significant time analyzing your natural hair to the last detail, ensuring a perfect match.
We will then skillfully hand-blend the extension to match your highlights, tone, lowlights, texture, and reflectivity. Your custom color blend extension should look like the real thing.
The Importance of Proper Color Blending
Whether you color blend your hair, like with balayage or hair extensions, it must blend perfectly with your natural hair.
You want to avoid seeing noticeable differences, especially with extensions, as it can be a dead giveaway screaming hair extensions.
When done correctly, with a natural blend from the root to the tip, your custom color blend will be indistinguishable from your natural hair, providing a seamless and authentic look.
Your hair has various tones, density, reflectivity, texture, and cuticle alignment. So, it takes a highly trained person to analyze your hair to find a perfect blend of texture and shades.
At Hāste Urban Hair Spa, our stylists take their time to understand your hair properties, such as:
- Your base color to the underlying pigment tones
- The highlights and lowlights
- The variation in your hair hues and the depth of the color
- The feel, texture, porosity, and density
- How the light reflects and accentuates your hair in different areas
- Your desired color changes and enhancements
Custom hair color blending requires an in-depth consultation so we can examine your hair from different angles in multiple lighting conditions. When you book a custom color blend with us, we recommend bringing photos of what you want to achieve.
We will then blend up to five shades by hand to match your hair’s needs. Standard extensions cannot replicate the same dimension and depth as your natural hair. But with custom blending, we can create extensions offering subtle variations in tone to give a seamless blend.
Hāste Urban Hair Spa Custom Color Blending Process
Our custom color blending starts with your in-depth consultation. We will analyze the characteristics of your hair like the:
- Pigment
- Texture
- Highlights
- Growth patterns
- Reflectivity
We will do this under artificial and natural light, and you can bring a photo as a reference to achieve your desired look.
One of our stylists will then hand-blend various shades of quality human hair to match your hair’s dimension and tone.
We have already fine-tuned our formula to make the extensions look like natural hair. We also record your custom blend formula so that when you reorder, we can provide you with an original formula to re-blend and match your new color.
Once the custom color blends are perfected, we cut and style the extensions to integrate them into your hair. We will then attach your extensions strand by strand using advanced methods to protect your natural hair.
The Benefits of Custom Color Blending
You will notice a transformative power once we are done with custom color blending and integrating the extensions. But this is not the only benefit:
- You will feel and see a natural look.
- You notice no difference in your highlights, texture, or color.
- There are no harsh lines between your natural hair and extensions.
- The color mimics the same variations to the reflectivity of your natural hair.
- It will style like your own hair.
- Custom color blending works on any hair type, from straight, thick, thin, or curly
- It adds volume, length, and thickness without causing damage.
Different Types of Color Blending Extensions
At our salon and spa, we offer you both single-drawn or double-drawn hair extensions.
Single Drawn Hair Extensions
We can custom color blend single-drawn hair extensions that are finer to the end of the hair. Your hair grows at different rates, resulting in a tapered look. The extensions contain short and long hairs, but achieving volume with them can be difficult.
Double Drawn Hair Extensions
On the other hand, double-drawn hair extensions have the same thickness from the roots to the tip. We have removed the shorter hairs to have the same thickness all over. They add volume to your hair, give a more glamorous look, and tend to be heavier.
6 Tips for Caring For Custom Blended Hair
After receiving your custom color blend, the aftercare is essential:
- Do not wash your custom color blends for 48 hours; wash them as infrequently as possible. Use dry shampoo between your washes to keep the extensions looking fresh.
- Also, sulfate-free and color-safe products should preserve the color and hair.
- Preferably stick to lukewarm water as it has a better effect on the hair.
- Your best friend is a conditioner, as it restores moisture. Consider visiting us monthly for a keratin treatment.
- Also, avoid heat styling to prevent damage to your hair; instead, try styling overnight with curlers, buns, or ribbons.
- Remember to schedule touch-ups and only color when looking off. Also, book your move-ups on a different day.
