How to Convert HEX to LAB
HEX to LAB converts hex colors to the CIE L*a*b* color space, which is device-independent and approximately perceptually uniform. LAB defines colors by Lightness (L, 0–100), green–red axis (a), and blue–yellow axis (b). For example, #FF0000 converts to lab(54.29 80.8 69.89). LAB is used in professional color science, Delta E color difference calculations, and ICC color profiles. Values here use the D50 white, as CSS lab() and ICC profiles do; tools set to D65 give about lab(53.24 80.09 67.2) for the same pure red, so check which white a LAB value was made with.
