Hi everyone! I’m new to extentions. I’ve done a handful of IBE models now but this will be one of my first full price installs. She currently has Great Lengths extentions in. She will have them removed and come to see me the next day. Wants to go a little lighter with her natural hair so we will be highlighting. Every other client I had we just matched to their current color and it was easy breezy to order the right wefts. I do not have a back stock of hair yet so this is tricky, when they want to change up their natural color. Also, when a client wants to change their natural do you typically do install then do whatever highlight/lowlights need to be done or do you prefer to highlight first then install? I’m attaching pics. Her natural is about to middle of shoulder blade. The rest is the great lengths extensions. Any advise on color matching would be helpful. I’ve been using covet and mane hair.

She’s also concerned about the weight of the wefts so wants to do the fewest wefts possible per row for her first install, her hair is baby fine. Again. This is making the color match tricky for me. I’m trying to think of ways to do just 3 wefts per row but get the color correct. I could just be overthinking this lol 🤪
It looks like to me if she wants to add more lighter through out her hair Bali would be a good choice. And I would probably install first and then color hair after to be able to really blend and get the colors right.
Is she looking for a highlighted look, or an all over lighter hair?
Highlighted
Then yes I think Bali
🙏 thank you so much!!!
Yes I agree! Bali would be 🔥🔥🔥
