How Do You Refer To Your Number?
It’s easy to find the perfect gray color for your wig style and hair extensions. Of course, gray isn’t “simply” gray. Light grey, dark grey, brown/grey, black/grey, and other shades of Grey are all available in wigs. The difficulty is knowing what you want and locating your color description code.
In general, color description codes are the same across wig designers. Still, there are some noticeable variations, such as when the color is stated directly rather than using a number (Medium Grey, Brown w/ 35% Grey, etc.) or when the name is incredibly adorable or mouthwatering, like Snowfall or Martini.
A number system is used for color description codes, with 1 being the darkest and getting lighter as the number rises. Beginning in the 1930s, grey tints were created by blending different tones of brown with variable amounts of grey. The lightest shade, 60, is a pure white color. Most wig vendors can give you a more detailed explanation if you need clarification about what the color will look like. Some salons could provide color consultations, allowing you to send in a photo or a sample of your hair to get the ideal shade.
