Color can make or break a braid style. It is the difference between “Oh, that hair looks nice” and “Where did that hair come from?” The right shade sets the whole vibe and at New Village Braid there are more than enough options to create a style that stands out.
This brand was created to go beyond the same three braid colors seen on shelves for years. Black. Brown. Maybe a dusty blonde if lucky. The community deserves shades that match personalities, moods, and seasons. The color range at New Village Braid offers options that are bold, natural, or somewhere in between.
How to Pick the Right Shade
1. Start with undertones
Warm undertones shine in golden, honey, or copper tones. Try NVB colors 27 (golden/honey/caramel copper), 1B/27 (black/blonde), 1B/30 (black/ginger), 30 (ginger), 1B/30/27 (black/ginger/blonde), or 350 (dark copper). Cool undertones pair beautifully with deep blacks and jewel tones such as 1 (true black), 1B (black), purple, 1B/green, and blue/light blue. Neutral undertones have the flexibility to wear both.
2. Decide on the mood.
Subtle elegance can be achieved with shades like 1B or chocolate brown. Reds like 33 (auburn) and 900 (burgundy) bring high-impact style and attention. For special occasions, many stylists recommend pairing braided hair extensions with bold colors like burgundy or auburn for maximum impact.
3. Mix shades for depth
Blending two or three colors can create a custom dimensional look. Chocolate brown with caramel streaks or jet black with burgundy accents are popular combinations. Mixing pre stretched braiding hair shades not only adds depth but also saves time during installation.
4. Match the season or energy
Fall calls for rich browns, coppers, and burgundy. Browns such as 2 (dark brown) and 4 (brown) create warmth, while spring and summer welcome lighter shades like honey blondes, golden browns, and bright statement colors. Or choose any color based on mood from fire engine red to soft chestnut. Our hypoallergenic braiding hair ensures comfort in every season, especially for those with sensitive scalps.
Why New Village Braid Colors Stand Out
The colors are not just beautiful. They are created with clean non toxic fibers that avoid the heavy chemical smell or sticky residue found in traditional synthetic hair. This means braids remain vibrant and the scalp stays protected from the first day to takedown day.
Every shade is fade resistant and true to tone so what is seen in the package is what appears in the braids. There is no dulling halfway through the style and no surprise color shifts.
Hair That Tells a Story
Braids are personal, cultural, and fashion forward. The color selected is part of that story and New Village Braid offers shades that help tell it with confidence.
