HEX to HSL Converter
Convert a HEX colour to HSL, with a live swatch and every other notation alongside.
To convert HEX to HSL, paste your colour above — any recognisable notation is accepted, including named CSS colours — and every format is shown at once with a live swatch. HSL separates hue from saturation and lightness, which is why it is the notation to reach for when generating a tint or shade: change one number, keep the hue.

Hex is two hex digits per channel — the notation CSS has used since the beginning, and the one every design tool copies to the clipboard. HSL separates hue from saturation and lightness, which is why it is the notation to reach for when generating a tint or shade: change one number, keep the hue.
