613 Hair Color Guide: Level 10 Blonde, Tones & Care Tips

If you are looking for a bright blonde shade for a wig, bundles, or hair extensions, 613 Hair Color is the most recognized blonde code in the hair industry. Stylists, wig makers, and resellers use it for bundles, lace wigs, closures, frontals, and clip-ins.

But what level is #613? How is it different from #60 or platinum blonde? And can you dye it darker? This guide answers each question, then covers styling, care, and how to source 613 hair that stays consistent from order to order.

What Is 613 Hair Color?

613 hair color is a light, platinum or pale golden blonde shade commonly used in the hair extension and wig industry. #613 corresponds to a Level 10 light blonde (often referred to as bleach blonde, platinum blonde, or baby blonde). Its tone sits between icy platinum and warm golden yellow, often described as a creamy, sunlit blonde.

No human hair grows naturally at this shade. To reach #613, the natural pigment has been completely stripped away through controlled bleaching. The result is a pre-lightened base that easily accepts custom toners, pastels, or vivid semi-permanent hair dyes.

Here is what defines the shade:

• Level: Level 10, the lightest step on the standard hair color scale.
• Undertone: warm, sun-kissed, or pale golden-yellow.
• Processing: heavily lightened from a dark natural base.
• Use: a blank canvas for toning, root melts, and fashion colors.

Manufacturer’s Insight (Mrs. Cherry, K-Hair Factory): “Raw 613” is a marketing label, not a hair type. Vietnamese hair starts at a dark natural shade, so every #613 bundle has been lifted to Level 10. What matters is how evenly it lifts. Single-donor hair lightens at one rate, while mixed-donor hair lifts unevenly and leaves warm patches. Our raw single-donor hair lifts cleanly to #613.

Is 613 the Same as Level 10?

Yes. In the standard hair extension and wig color system, #613 corresponds to a Level 10 light blonde. Level 10 is the lightest level on the 1 to 10 scale, where Level 1 is black.

The level describes lightness only. The undertone is a separate attribute, which is why two Level 10 shades, #613 and #60, still look different side by side.

613 Hair Color Chart

This chart shows where #613 sits among other popular blonde shades.

Shade	Level	Undertone	Typical look
#60	10	Cool, platinum, ash	Icy, snowy white blonde
#613	10	Warm, golden, buttery	Creamy, sunlit blonde
Platinum blonde	10	Cool to neutral	Near-white blonde
Ash blonde	8 to 9	Cool, smoky	Muted light blonde
Honey blonde, #27	7 to 8	Warm, golden	Deeper golden blonde

Shade codes are shared across the industry, but every factory’s bleaching process differs slightly. Always confirm with a physical swatch before a large order.

613 vs. 60 Hair Color

Color #613 and color #60 are both very light blonde shades, but they differ significantly in undertone, brightness, and overall aesthetic. #613 is warm, golden, and buttery. #60 is cool, platinum, and icy, with minimal to no yellow.

Feature	Color #613	Color #60
Tone	Warm / Golden / Buttery	Cool / Platinum / Ash / Snowy
Brightness	Slightly warmer, more pigmented	Lighter and whiter in comparison
Customization	Great base for custom dyeing or toning	Best kept as-is for a platinum look
Vibe	Soft glam, warm, and radiant	Clean, bright, high-fashion, and icy

#60 is harder to dye darker or customize compared to #613, because it has been lightened further. Choose #613 if you plan to tone or color the hair later. Choose #60 for a ready-to-wear icy finish.

613 vs. Platinum Blonde

613 is often sold as platinum blonde, and the two names overlap in many product listings. True platinum, however, is cooler and whiter, and sits closer to #60.

The practical difference is the yellow. A #613 bundle keeps a soft golden warmth. A platinum result needs that warmth neutralized with a violet or silver toner. If your clients ask for platinum, buy #613 and tone it, or buy #60 and wear it as-is.

613 vs. Ash Blonde

Ash blonde is a cooler, muted shade, usually one or two levels darker than #613. It reads soft and smoky, while #613 reads bright and luminous.

The two are connected: ash blonde is one of the most common shades stylists create from a #613 base. Tone #613 with an ash or violet toner, and the golden warmth turns into a smoky blonde.

Who Does 613 Hair Color Suit?

This shade works well across a wide range of complexions, from fair to dark skin tones. The finish depends on undertone, root color, and styling.

• Fair skin: #613 gives a soft, bright look. A shadow root adds definition if hair and skin feel too close in depth.
• Medium skin: the golden undertone complements warm complexions and creates noticeable contrast.
• Dark skin: the contrast is bold and high-impact, which makes #613 a top choice for statement wigs and long extensions.
• Cool undertones: tone the hair toward ash or add a darker root for balance.
• Warm undertones: wear #613 as-is or warm it toward honey blonde.

Popular 613 Hair Styles

One reason 613 hair color sells so well is that it works with almost every texture and construction.

613 Straight and Bone Straight Hair

Straight blonde hair reflects light evenly, so the color looks brighter and more polished. Bone straight adds a sleek, flat finish that holds its shape, as seen in our Bone straight 613 blonde bundles.

613 Body Wave and Deep Wave Hair

Body wave adds soft movement, while deep wave adds defined volume. On a Level 10 blonde, the waves create highlights and shadows that make the color look more dimensional.

613 Curly Hair

Curly blonde hair reflects light from many angles, which gives the shade depth. Curly 613 needs careful detangling, because lightened curls dry out faster than dark curls.

613 Lace Wigs

A 613 lace wig gives an instant blonde transformation, and it can be customized with a shadow root or lowlights. For ready-made options, see our Light colored lace front wigs.

Can You Dye or Tone 613 Hair Color?

Yes. Because the hair has already been heavily lightened, #613 acts as a blank canvas. You can wear it as-is for a bold blonde look or tone it to create silver, pastel, ash blonde, or custom root melts (like pink, lavender, or honey blonde).

Toning and semi-permanent color are the safest options. Further bleaching is not recommended, because the hair is already at Level 10 and has no pigment left to lift.

Manufacturer’s Insight (Mrs. Cherry, K-Hair Factory): Never put a dark ash color straight onto #613. The hair has no warm pigment left, so ash tones turn muddy or green. Stylists fill the hair first with a warm golden or copper filler, then apply the darker shade. Skip that step and the color fades unevenly within a few washes.

How to Maintain 613 Hair Color

Because 613 hair undergoes intensive processing to reach the pale blonde level, it requires specialized care to prevent dryness or brassiness. Here is the routine we recommend:

• Wash with color-safe, sulfate-free shampoos to protect the toner and the cuticle.
• Deep condition regularly, ideally once a week, to restore moisture and softness.
• Detangle carefully from ends to roots with a wide-tooth comb.
• Use purple shampoo occasionally to keep brassiness away. Overuse leaves the hair dull or violet-tinted.
• Limit heat: apply a heat protectant and use a moderate temperature.
• Protect at night with a satin or silk bonnet or pillowcase to reduce friction and tangling.
• Rinse after swimming, because chlorine and sun exposure speed up yellowing.

How to Choose High-Quality 613 Human Hair

With 613 hair color, the shade is only one part of quality. Two bundles can look identical in a photo and perform very differently after washing. Check these factors before you buy:

Quality factor	What to check
Color consistency	The shade is even from root to tip, with no orange or warm patches
Batch consistency	Bundles from the same order match each other
Cuticles	Cuticles stay intact and aligned after lightening
Elasticity	A wet strand stretches and returns without snapping
Shedding	Little hair loss when you run your fingers through the weft
Tangling	The hair stays manageable after washing and drying
Texture retention	Waves and curls hold their pattern after washing

A sample answers these questions far better than product photos, especially when you need the same #613 shade across repeat orders.

Buying 613 Hair Wholesale

Wholesale #613 is sold as pre-lifted platinum blonde human hair, usually at 100g (3.5 oz) per bundle. It is available in straight, body wave, deep wave, and bulk hair (no weft) for boho or traditional braiding. Common lengths run from 14 to 30+ inches.

For salons and resellers, 613 hair color is one of the highest-demand stock items, because it serves both blonde wearers and stylists who create custom colors. Plan your order around these points:

• Order one lift batch per client install. Bundles bleached in different batches can differ slightly in warmth.
• Stock both textures and lengths your clients request most, with extra length for wigs, where 24 inches and above sell fastest.
• Ask for a swatch from the same batch you will receive, not a catalog sample.
• Confirm the processing history: how many lifts, and whether the hair was toned.

For braiding and custom work, our Raw blonde bulk hair comes without wefts. Pricing for #613 depends on length, texture, and drawn type, so contact us for a current quote.

Common Mistakes When Buying 613 Hair

• Choosing from photos alone: lighting, editing, and screens change how blonde looks.
• Assuming every #613 matches: each factory’s bleaching process leaves a slightly different warmth.
• Judging by color only: a bright shade says nothing about cuticle health or shedding.
• Skipping the sample stage: problems with consistency show up only after washing.
• Ignoring processing history: over-processed hair breaks when you tone or color it later.
