What Are Hair Color Levels Used For?

Everyone sees color a little differently because our eyes are not exactly the same.

While there’s no getting away from that, we also each want to look the part when we step out in a new color.

Hair color levels are the way to do that because they standardize the exact tone and shade of hair across everyone who works up top on a crown. 

Here at Private Label, we make sure that our hair bundles fit into the exact category they need to be in.

Whether it’s wavy, straight, or something with a kink running down it, we make sure the hair color level is always easy to find.

Perfect when you want to be able to browse a whole world of stylish new color options with nothing more than the click of a button.

How Do Hair Color Levels Work?

The hair color level describes how light or dark a hair bundle is, allowing you to pick what you want without any of that risky guesswork.

The higher the number on display, the lighter the main color will be. Likewise, the lower the number, the darker the hair color you’re looking at. 

A general rule is that the hair color scale runs from 1 to 10, where black is at 1, and the lightest shade of blonde hair you can imagine scores a 10.

Now, if you’re reading this handy little guide, we can tell that you want to be towards the darker end of the scale.

With that in mind, we’re going to guide you through everything you need to do it your way.

Is 1B Darker Than 1 Black Hair?

Color 1 is the darkest color out there, and a lot of you will think of it as jet black bundles or pitch black.

The only downside is that it’s actually darker than a natural shade of black, so it might not look all that natural, just in case you were hoping it would.

Style points are always on offer; however, if you decide you want to use them to add some attitude and boldness to your look.  Don’t forget that 1b is always an option…

Is 1B Jet Black?

Not quite — the only color one can really be called jet black in the truest sense of the word.

1B has those warming, soothing brown undertones that stop naturally black hair from ever looking like jet black wigs.

If you want to add in some natural-looking wavy hair with the click of a button, our 1B wavy hair could be just what you want to drop in your cart.

Jet black is a little different when you start to dive into the color spectrum because it has some cool blue notes and tones running through it.

Don’t get us wrong. We’re not talking about blue highlights or tinting.

It’s more a sense of coolness that comes across when you look at the hair, and that coolness only arises when there are blue notes rather than brown notes present.

How Can You Work with 1 and 1B Hair?

Private Label’s range of extensions is all about setting you free to live life on your own terms.

You can work with them however you like, although the more care you take, the longer they will last.

If you get a chance to change how you look with our hair bundles and extensions, there are a few quick tips that we know from experience will make all the difference: 

  • Drop the sulfates and give your new hair an easier time of it to avoid drying it out and causing breaks.
  • Rinse thoroughly but gently to make sure your hair can breathe as you leave it to dry the natural way.
  • Hang any 1 or 1b hair you decide to treat yourself to so that it doesn’t knot or decide to tangle itself up.

Something as simple as following these three quick tips can add months to the lifetime of your extensions without you even realizing it.

Just what you want to hear when it’s time to create a look that will give you all the confidence in the world every time you see yourself in the mirror.

Need a little extra help with picking your dream shade? Don’t worry. We already know what’s on your mind…

Is 1 or 1B Darker?

Color 1 is always darker than 1b, regardless of where you buy your hair extensions or braiding bundles from.

Private Label follows this international standard because we want to set you free to express yourself like never before.

We can also guarantee that the color level doesn’t change when you look at two different textures like water wave and deep wave.

Hold some wavy 1b hair alongside straight 1b hair, and you’ll think they were flowing from the same crown.

Which Grade Is Dark for You?

Now that you know exactly what we have in mind, it’s over to you to set the tone with the perfect color level for your look.

We love the idea of color 1 hair, which gives your look some bold attitude and energy.

If you want something a little more natural, we also like the look of color 1b, adding something with a little touch of nutty brown warmth that comes through from the background.

Shopping with Private Label is all about making sure that your hair comes through for you in a way that is impossible to put into words. 🧚🏿

We make it a reality by only ever following international standards when it comes to color levels.

Now, it’s over to you to show the whole world who you are and what you can do.
