After LOTS of research (mainly watching Insta / Tiktok videos) I settled on this shade as I was looking for a neutral weft with a medium brown base with lighter tones throughout. It's slightly lighter than the swatch (as expected) in person, with beautiful, natural looking tones. The rooted version blends easily and my hairdresser added half a head of highlights, dyed my roots then blended all together with an ash toner. It looks super natural and blends well with the weft, which she attached after colouring. My hair is very fine and silky, so it does tend to blend more easily with whatever extensions I pick but this really was such a great match and exactly the colour I'd been searching for!! The hair is super silky still, even a month in with washing 2-3 times a week (my hair gets greasy easily so sometimes I wash the top layer and skip the extensions so I'm only washing them twice a week). The ends are a little dry (expected with extensions that are washed regularly / styled with head tools) but this isn't abnormal and I am planning on buying a good hair mask. Alongside this I am using Olaplex Fine shampoo and conditioner, K18 mask, K18 heat protectant / conditioner spray, Amika soulfood lightweight oil and Moroccain Oil light. I bought the 16" which is perfect for me, and the price was very good for the weight. I'd like to try some of the thinner track wefts in this shade, however this was more affordable and I'm very happy!
