Color Guide

 Here is a list of current colors in stock with a description of said color and its undertones. All swatches are approximations. We frequently combine colors to make new and unique shades, so this is not an exhaustive list of what we can do - just the base shades in stock! The undertones of the dye will effect the gradient itself - for example, our black dye is blue based so it pairs well with cooler tones. 

**The tint of your computer or mobile phone screen (for example, redshift or nightshift) will effect how our color guide is displayed. Please turn these off when viewing our guide and/or photos of previous work.**
