Three decisions get you to a result that looks natural and fits your everyday life: color, length, and quantity.
1. Determine the right color
Compare your hair in daylight – especially the lengths and ends, not just the roots. Choose the color that blends best there. For highlights or more depth, a Balayage or Rooted shade can look more natural than a single uniform tone.
2. Choose the right length
- 35 cm: natural, compact, and ideal for subtle added length or volume.
- 45 cm: a balanced length for a visible, everyday-friendly effect.
- 55 cm: a long, expressive result with more room for styling.
The actual effect depends on your height, your starting length, and your hair structure. So use the Stessia length advice as well.
3. Estimate the quantity you need
Adding volume alone usually needs less hair than a full length extension. Dense, very short, or bluntly cut hair often needs more transition material so that no edge stays visible.
Before you order
- Photograph your hair in neutral daylight.
- Check color, length, and your goal separately.
- If you are unsure, plan personal advice or an appointment with a Stessia partner.
Important: Online recommendations are a guide. Lighting, displays, and color treatments can change how a shade is perceived.
