Hair Color Chart

Your perfect hair color starts with the right match.


Explore our range of shades, from deep natural blacks and rich brunettes to warm blondes, cool tones, balayage and ombre combinations.


How to choose your shade

  • Match your extensions primarily to the mid-lengths and ends of your natural hair.
  • Compare shades in natural, indirect daylight.
  • Consider whether your hair has warm, cool or neutral undertones.
  • For highlighted or multidimensional hair, explore blended shades.


Color appearance may vary depending on lighting and screen settings. Product availability differs by collection.

Hair Length Guide

From subtle length enhancement to dramatic transformations, discover the length that suits your style.

Length              Approx. inches 

55 cm                22"

Which extension method is right for you?
The best choice depends on your hair density, scalp condition, desired volume, styling preferences and maintenance routine. A qualified stylist can assess attachment placement and weight distribution.

Hair Quality & Density

Understanding hair terminology helps you choose with confidence.


Virgin Hair
Virgin Hair generally refers to human hair that has not undergone chemical coloring, bleaching or similar chemical processing. Exact definitions and sourcing standards can vary between suppliers.


Processed Hair

Processed Hair refers to hair that has undergone one or more treatments, such as coloring or texture modification. Its characteristics depend on the original hair, processing methods and finishing quality.


Single Drawn Hair
Single Drawn hair generally contains a wider distribution of strand lengths, often creating a naturally tapered appearance toward the ends.


Double Drawn Hair

Double Drawn hair is sorted or prepared to create a more consistent density from the upper lengths toward the ends, giving a fuller appearance.


At Tılsım Hair, we offer different hair collections to suit a variety of styling preferences and professional requirements.

Hair Care & Maintenance

Beautiful hair deserves thoughtful care.


Washing
Use suitable hair care products and wash gently without rubbing or tangling the extensions. Follow the product-specific instructions for adhesive or bonded attachment areas.


Brushing
Detangle gently, starting at the ends and working upward. Support the hair near the attachment points to avoid unnecessary pulling.


Heat Styling
Use appropriate heat protection and avoid direct heat on adhesive tabs, keratin bonds and other heat-sensitive attachment components.


Sleeping
Detangle your hair before bed and secure it loosely where appropriate. Avoid sleeping with wet extensions.


Professional Maintenance
Follow the maintenance schedule recommended for your extension method. Do not attempt to remove permanent or semi-permanent attachments without appropriate professional guidance.
