Hex Color Text

Hex color text refers to using hexadecimal color codes to style and color text on websites, documents, and digital media. A hex color code is a six-character code preceded by a hash symbol (#) that represents a specific color using the RGB (Red, Green, Blue) color model. For example, #FF0000 is pure red, #0000FF is blue, and #000000 is black.

How Hex Color Codes Work

Hex color codes use a base-16 (hexadecimal) numbering system. Each code consists of three pairs of characters, where each pair controls one color channel: Red, Green, and Blue. Values range from 00 (no intensity) to FF (maximum intensity, or 255 in decimal). With three channels each having 256 possible values, there are exactly 16,777,216 unique hex colors.
