Why settle for a Shade that’s almost right?
This is your go-to guide for mixing Hair Colours — and unlocking a completely custom, made-for-you Shade using our salon-quality, mixable Colour range.
Whether you’re torn between two Tones, craving an underTone tweak, or chasing that perfect in-between Shade, custom Colour mixing is where the magic happens. And yes — you can absolutely do it at home.
Our Colour Range Was Made To Be Mixed
We didn’t create one-size-fits-all Colour — we created a Colour system. Every Shade in our range is designed to work together, so you can mix two Hair Colour Shades (plus Developer) to create something that doesn’t already exist in a tube — your perfect custom blend.
Want a touch more Warmth? Easy.
Need a splash of Ash to cancel out Brass? You got it.
Looking for that just-right Light Brown that sits between two levels? Done.
Mixing gives you full creative control — over Tone, depth, reflect, Warmth and Lightness — so the Colour you create doesn’t just suit you, it’s made for you.
Why Mix Two Hair Colours?
Mixing two Shades gives you the power to:
Find that perfect in-between Colour (like the sweet spot between 3 Dark Brown and 5 Light Brown)
Add a hit of Warmth or vibrancy (try 8 Light Blonde + 8.44 Intense Copper Blonde = Golden hour in a bottle)
Cool things down or neutralise Brassiness (9 Very Light Blonde + 9.1 Light Ash Blonde = soft and smoky)
It’s a vibe shift in a tube — and you’re the one steering the Tone.
Mixing Rules To Live By
Custom Colour is all about creativity — but a few clever rules will make sure your mix turns out glossy, balanced, and beautiful:
Stick with like-minded Tones. Cool with Cool, Warm with Warm.
Want to add a reflect? Mix Warm or Cool Shades with a Natural base.
Don’t mix Warm and Cool reflects — they’ll cancel each other out.
Choose your Natural base first — it sets your Lightness or Darkness.
Stay within the same Colour level — e.g., 6 Dark Blonde + 6.22 Intense Violet = seamless harmony.
How To Choose Your Perfect Pair
1. Start With Your Primary Colour
This is your base Shade — the one that speaks to you most.
Example: You’re drawn to 8.44 Intense Copper Blonde, but want to soften it. That’s your Primary.
2. Add Your Secondary Colour
This is your adjuster — the Shade that shifts the Tone, deepens or lightens the base, or dials up (or down) the reflect.
Use your Secondary to:
Darken — choose a deeper Shade
Lighten — add a Lighter Shade
Cool down — go Ash, Beige or Silver
Warm up — try Gold, Copper, or Chocolate
Neutralise or soften — mix with a Natural Shade
How To Get The Right Ratio
Let your Primary Colour lead the way, then adjust with your Secondary based on how subtle or strong you want the shift.
¾ + ¼ = Primary dominant, subtle secondary influence
½ + ½ = Balanced blend, equal influence from both Shades
Example: ¾ tube 6 Dark Blonde + ¼ tube 6.22 Intense Violet = Dark Blonde with a violet kiss.
How To Mix Your Hair Colour Like A Pro
Squeeze your Colour Shades into a Tint Bowl using your chosen ratio.
Mix with your Tint Brush until smooth and unified.
Add Developer (one bottle per full tube of Colour) and stir until creamy.
If you are using ¾ tube + ¼ tube mixture, mix with a full Developer bottle. If you are using ½ tube + ½ tube mixture, mix with a full Developer bottle.
Apply as usual — and prepare to feel smug about your custom Colour skills.
Leftovers? No problem — our Colour and Developer are resealable, so you can save the rest for next time.
Real Results, Real Hair Goals
Before:
A washed-out Light Blonde with stubborn Grey regrowth that’s been hard to cover. She has previously used either 9 Very Light Blonde, 8 Light Blonde or 7.3 Golden Blonde — but nothing quite hit the mark.
The Goal:
Bring life back to the Hair
Cover Greys seamlessly
Achieve a deeper, more natural-looking Blonde
The Custom Mix:
½ x 7 Medium Blonde
½ x 7.3 Golden Blonde
The Natural base delivered a soft, lived-in Blonde while neutralising the strong gold Tones from the 7.3. The Golden Blonde worked hard where it counts — grabbing onto and covering Grey Hairs beautifully, while adding a healthy glow and subtle Warmth.
Sometimes, a simple blend is all it takes to completely revive a Colour.
