Hi guys I have directions Turquoise on my hair at the mo' and I would like to make dreads to match !
There are several types of kanekalon hair in blue : 'tropical blue', 'turquoise', 'sky blue' etc...

Does anyone know which shade is the closest to Directions turquoise ?

Thanks xxx

It's kind of impossible to say really. It depends on if you have old or new formula turquoise, how faded it is, if it was diluted and how yellow your hair was when you put it on. Even our individual monitors as it won't look the same on all our different screens!

Plus you can blend two or more shades of kanekalon if you want to be more sure of getting a shade to match closely πŸ™‚

It's probably best just to buy the smallest quantity of each to see the colors in person. People's opinions could differ on which matches the best and there's always the possibility that the company changes their dye formulation from time to time. I'd also suggest getting a good look at them under multiple light sources (daylight, indoor, what have you) to check for a color shift.

I'd go for a blend.
