Hey all,
 
I have decided to buy a set of clip in extensions..
 
This is the colour of my hair
 
http://s6.photobucket.com/albums/y232/ickledee/ - http://s6.photobucket.com/albums/y232/ickledee/
 
Can i ask what colour clip ins you guys think are the best match for me?.. Think i am going to buy from Wicked_Wares

I was thinking maybe 14/19/22 ??? Or is that light blonde too blonde?
 
Any advice/opinions would be greatly appreciated as im sick of my hair length and will be gutted if these come all the way from USA to me in UK and they dont match.
 
Thanks heaps

Hello...

That color mix looks close to your hair color- very pretty.
It can be difficult to tell a color match using pictures.
 
Have you contacted the seller?
Wicked_Wares is very friendly and they respond to questions.
 
Good Luck

Hi Ickledee!
I think I would go for the 14-22 mix.
Your hair color looks just like mine, and I am very annoyed to find the right mix.
I am somewhere between 24-14 or 24-27, depending on the colors of the hair.
Good luck!

Definitely a blend of 22/16 and 14 in there chick, anything along those lines would match x

Thanks guys.

Ok so you think i should ask for a blend of 14/16/22 rather than the 14/19/22 ??  Just to be clear before i order?
 
Also i am looking to achieve the same kind of length of the pics of Nicole included in that link do you rek 14inch or 16inch would do it?
 
Thanks again

I'd ask see if she's got the 14/16/22 so you get a perfect match but the 14/19/22 would still match, every supplier has different colour rings anyway chick so their 19 might be very similar to a 16 anyway as I've not heard of colour 19 but then again I've only dealt with bohyme really.  I'd say Nicole has about 12inch but she's very small so it looks longer on her.  I'd go for the 16, what the heck, at least you can cut it then if its too long x

the only place Ive ever saw that has hair in #19 and have seen that color combo on their color choices is hisandher.com. Wonder if this is where this ebay seller purchases the hair.

ickledee, Im not saying that it is hair from hisandher. I dont know that. But thats the only place Ive seen some of those 3 color combos. Actually I dont even see the 14/19/22 combo on hisandher website. I wouldnt recommend the regular or sale hair from hisandher, never used the higher end hair.
 
You could ask the seller what hair they use.

Amanda, i asked about the colours and this is the response :)
 
Claire:
We can do that color mix if you wish---
The #16 is a light to medium warm blonde color.
The #19 is our dark blonde color. We do not have a solid #19 color-- it is not normally a color that it used. We actually just call the dark blonde color #19 because it is slightly lighter than a #18 light brown.  #19 really is not used by retailers/manufacturers to describe a hair color. We just use #19 to assign the color in this color mix to avoid confusion with a blonde #16 (honey blonde) or a light brown #18. Originally we had asked our supplier for a #18 light brown in this mix- but is comes out lighter- a dark neutral blonde color rather than a light brown #18 or a warm blonde #16.
I hope this description helps- although I do not know how necessary it is for you.  
If you do decide to go with the 14/16/22 mix, the resulting blend will be a bit lighter than the 14/19/22.
Let me know what you would like to do.

I'm intrigued about this, do you think she is making the wefts up herself seeing as she seems to be able to get her hands on almost any colour blend lol.  I'd go with the 14/16/22 x x
