Stay Different Hair
Find the shade that does not just match you — it feels like you.
Before you choose
The right colour does more than look good in a photo. It warms your complexion, brightens your eyes and makes people ask what you have changed.
Three things point you in the right direction: your skin tone (how light or deep you are), your undertone (the colour beneath the surface) and contrast (how much your hair stands apart from your skin).
Consider this a guide, not a rulebook. The best shade is the one you feel most like yourself in — and if that breaks every rule here, even better.
How light or deep your skin is on the surface. It changes with the seasons.
The warm, cool or neutral colour underneath. It never changes.
How far your hair sits from your skin. Low blends, high makes a statement.
Step 01 — Know your undertone
Skin tone is the shade you see in the mirror — fair, medium, deep. Undertone is the subtle hue underneath it, and it stays the same whether you are winter-pale or holiday-bronzed. It is the secret to a shade that looks expensive instead of off.
01 / Warm
Your skin has golden, peachy or yellow hints underneath. You glow in sunlight and look radiant in earthy, rich colours.
Jewellery test: Gold makes you glow.

02 / Cool
Your skin has pink, red or bluish hints underneath. You shine in jewel tones and crisp colours, and warmth can sometimes make you look flushed.
Jewellery test: Silver is your metal.

03 / Neutral
A balance of warm and cool — your undertone is hard to pin down, and that is your superpower. Almost every shade family works for you.
Jewellery test: Gold and silver both work.

Showing all 7 shades
No. 01 · Bronde
Sun-kissed, but make it intentional.
A light bronde that melts soft honey through a gentle brown base. It catches the light without shouting, so it works from boardroom to brunch.
No. 02 · Brunette
Rich brunette with a secret caramel streak.
A medium brunette threaded with caramel ribbons that only reveal themselves when you move. Polished, warm and quietly expensive-looking.
No. 03 · Dark brunette
Dark roots, loud highlights, zero apologies.
A deep brunette base cut through with bold toffee highlights for high-contrast movement. Made for curls and waves that want to be noticed.
No. 04 · Blonde
That 6pm glow — on demand.
A light golden blonde with buttery warmth from root to tip. Soft enough to feel natural, bright enough to light up your whole face.
No. 05 · Ash brown
Cool, calm and a little bit mysterious.
An ashy medium brown with the warmth dialled right down. It reads modern and editorial, and it keeps brassiness firmly off the table.
No. 06 · Deep brown
Dark, glossy and dangerously easy to wear.
A deep, rich brown with minimal dimension and maximum shine. It blends beautifully with natural dark hair, so it looks like yours on day one.
No. 07 · Multi-tonal
Brunette at the root. Blonde by the end. Unpredictable throughout.
A multi-tonal melt that travels from rich brunette to bright blonde. It is the shade for days you want to walk in and change the room.
No shades match that combination — which is very on-brand, honestly.
Colour, with texture
Curls and coils catch light differently to straight hair, so dimension reads deeper and highlights pop harder. These two were made for it.
Step 03 — Choose by the look
Know the vibe but not the shade name? Start with how you want to feel.
Step 04 — Harmony or contrast?
Once you know your undertone, decide how loud you want to be. There is no wrong answer — only a different one.
Harmony
Match your hair to your undertone — warm with warm, cool with cool. The result is seamless, soft and naturally "is that your real hair?"
Try Warm undertone + Cocoa Muse · Cool undertone + Smoke Signal
Contrast
Pair opposites — cool skin with golden warmth, deep skin with bright blonde — and turn your hair into the statement. Contrast is not a mistake. It is a choice.
Try Deep skin + Golden Hour · Cool undertone + Wild Card
One last note
Lighting, screens and your own natural hair all change how a colour looks in real life. Use this guide to narrow it down, then choose the shade that feels most like you. Still torn? We will happily help you decide.
