Hair extensions have long carried an unfair stigma, shaped by visible tapes, grown-out bonds and obvious application. In reality, when applied with skill and restraint, they offer one of the most seamless transformations in modern hair artistry. For years, I’ve worn hair extensions to pad things out—a bit more length, a lot more density. But I have never considered them to ‘colour’ my hair—until now. Extensions are being used to do the work colour does—lifting, brightening, adding dimension—without using chemical dyes at all.
