Does anyone have comparison pics of petrol green, light petrol green, moss green, forest green, emerald green and the remaining BH green/blues?

I'm also very interested in comparing PH shades with BH shades.

They've probably run out, so your best bet is to email them asking when it will be back in.

They remove colours from their site when it's out of stock and add it when they get it back in :)

Is there any kk that is similar to afrocares steel grey? They don't seem to sell it anymore, the closest shade I can find is Gunmetal from Ikickshins, but the shipping kills me so I don't order from her =[

Hey, I'm not in the UK.... I import all the hair I sell and the price already includes 22% VAT. 5€/bag is cheaper than prices of any other seller in Finland and costs about the same that it would end up costing to order "cheaper" hair from UK.

We took some new comparison pics yesterday. Some pinks are really pain in the arse to photograph, but I think we finally got what we needed: the difference between neon pink, disco pink and magenta. Huh!

Not sure what brand that is in the picture, but a lot of different brands come in #280. I've got Black N gold and Bobbi Boss #280 right now. It's a dark off-black color with lighter grey bits. #34, #44, #51, and #280 are all blended colors.. the biggest difference between them is the proportions.

#280 in my picture is from Jazzy, and just like ikickshins said, it is a blend of black and grey.

Petrol Green, Emerald, Blueblack/Petrol Green, Blueblack/Light Petrol Green. Natural outdoor light.

that is pretty combo, but I was wondering if anyone knew if Sea Green was discontinued from buyhair.co.uk? I was looking at the pictures that were supplied by Neon Black, and I did not see Sea Green or Blueberry in the fantasy color section of buyhair.co.uk.

I really like Sea Green. D: But if it discontinued, I guess I can just opt for Mossy Green, Petrol green, etc. and blend to get close to what I see in the picture.... :(

If a colour has been removed, invariably it's because it's out of stock.

I've heard Sea Green is terrible to seal though so it'd probably be best to blend your own. :)
