Men’s Hair Systems: Color Matching Made Easy

Jun 18,2025

1. Introduction

Hair color is not just a cosmetic option—it’s an incredible means of expressing oneself. A well-chosen shade can beautify your look, match your skin, and even improve your confidence. But in men’s hair systems, a natural appearance relies extensively on accurate color matching. A poorly matched color will turn even the finest-quality hairpiece into something unnatural.

At Goodyard Hair, we understand the importance of seamless blending. That’s why we’ve created this comprehensive guide to help you find your ideal hair system color. We’ll walk you through three reliable methods:

  1. Purchasing a color ring (for at-home comparison)
  2. Sending photos (for expert-assisted matching)
  3. Sending a hair sample (the most accurate method)

By the end of this blog, you’ll know exactly how to choose a color that looks natural, stylish, and uniquely you.

 

2. Option 1: Purchase a Color Ring

If you prefer a hands-on approach to color matching, our Goodyard Hair Color Ring is an excellent starting point. This tool contains multiple hair swatches, allowing you to compare shades in different lighting conditions before making a decision

2.1 How to Use the Color Ring

To get the best fit, follow these steps:

  • Check in natural daylight – Go outside (not into direct sunlight, which will also distort color). .
  • Test under neutral indoor lighting – Avoid yellow-tinted bulbs, as these will make colors appear warmer than they are.
  • Compare to your natural hair – Hold the swatches next to your hair at the roots and ends for the most accurate comparison.

2.2 Why a Color Ring Helps

  • Eliminates guesswork – Seeing physical samples reduces the risk of ordering the wrong shade.

But keep in mind that monitor screens may vary, so an on-screen color chart only may not be 100% accurate. For best results, we recommend using this method in conjunction with Options 2 or 3.

 

3. Option 2: Send Photos for Color Matching

If you don’t have a color ring, our team can still help! By sending high-quality photos of your hair, our experts can recommend the closest match from our catalog.

3.1 Photo Guidelines

For the clearest review, snap your photos outside under even shade, or inside with cool, neutral lights-steer clear of yellow bulbs. Shoot from several angles: front (showing the hairline), back (showing length), and tight close-ups of roots and ends so any color shift is clear. Let your hair fall freely; don’t pull it back, and skip filters, so the color looks exactly as it does in real life.

3.2 Limitations of Photo Matching

While our specialists do their best, screen differences can affect accuracy. We can’t guarantee a perfect match based on photos alone—which is why we recommend sending a physical hair sample (Option 3) for the best results.

 

4. Option 3: Send a Hair Sample (Most Accurate Method)

If you want absolutely perfect results, the only way to be sure is to mail in a small, clean strand of your own hair. Doing so removes all guesswork and guarantees your fresh system matches color, texture, and wave exactly.

4.1 How to Collect a Hair Sample

  • For single-color hair, cut 2–3 inch strands from different areas while avoiding bald spots, and secure them with a small piece of tape.
  • For multi-colored or gray hair, take 3–6 separate samples from areas like the front hairline, crown, and temples, and label each one clearly. Don’t exclude gray hairs—adding them ensures a realistic, age-appropriate color blend.

4.2 Shipping Process

Once you’ve collected your sample:

  1. Place it in a sealed bag.
  2. Request a shipping label from us .
  3. Print out the address label, place it on your package, and schedule a pickup with the courier.

No need to visit a post office—we make it hassle-free!

 

5. Conclusion & Next Steps

Best Method Recap:

  1. Hair sample (Most accurate)
  2. Photos (Good estimate)
  3. Color ring (Helpful reference)
