Hi all 😁  I'm looking for a pink that will match my pony tail. My current pink is to dark and want to lighten it anyway but I'm not sure which pink is best for that extension. I'm new so I hope the picture ive attached works lol

So the darker pink is the colour you have now? What was the base colour of your hair when you put it on? For that pink it needs to be on the lighter side.

The pony tail is fake, I forgot to say. The darker pink is what most of my hair is now, apart from the blonde and a bit of blue underneath. I'm going to fade it out, bleach the roots and bleach bath the ends if necessary. I can get my hair quite light though so I can achieve pale blonde without killing it. I like the pink of the ponytail though so if I can match it that would be fab, just didn't know what pink is best.

I got that it's fake πŸ™‚

It's difficult to tell for sure though as the photo looks pretty 'noisy' and therefore distorted in colour. However, I think Directions Flamingo pink would work on light blonde hair. It depends on high much of the current colour you can get out. Luckily the blue tends to come out first, so even if it stay a pink I think you'll be able to get a similar colour.

I should add though, the best way to get a match is to use human hair the same colour as the base it's going on (you don't want to bleach it as it's normally highly processed already) and then dye it with the same dye!

Apologies for the rubbish pic, I'm on my phone and have never posted a pic on a forum before. I'm aiming for that pink so I will look into f.pink. Ive been carnation pink... Many years ago, the brand is pretty good. I'll definitely be getting some human hair extensions soon (ish lol), just a bit poor just now and I prefer that pink any way.

Thank you for the help 😁
