Ombre hair

June 20, 2013 By Anastasia Nam

Dip Dyeing Your Hair

Lots of women are tempted to try to do their own hair dyeing projects at home, no matter how probable it is that the dye will go awry. The ombre look, sported by a number of celebrities today is a trend that can go terribly wrong in the hands of an amateur. Dip dyeing hair takes finesse. You don’t just dip your hair in a bucket of dye and end up with a stylish look. Visiting your stylist is really important if you want to make sure you end up with the look you’re really going for.

A variety of A-list celebrities have done dip dying. Naomi Campbell and Raven-Symone are just two of them who may have chosen this trendy look because they don’t have to revisit the salon every two months for a touch up to keep their dreads looking pristine. Dip dyeing has the natural advantage of growing out naturally. Rather than having roots, women who choose to go with the ombre look have “ends”. When they’re ready to try something new, it’s easy to just chop off the part of the hair that was dip dyed. Unfortunately, many women attempt the lighter on the bottom, darker on the top process at home with limited success.

Of course, it’s also possible to do a darker on the bottom and lighter on the top dip dyeing job as well. Either way, the final color that you choose is an important decision. Your stylist may be able to give you some guidance to help you find the perfect shade to match your natural color, or perhaps a secondary color that your hair could be dyed up top to give you a radically different look. Picking up a box of hair color at the local grocery store is like playing Russian roulette. You really don’t know for sure how your own natural color will interact with the boxed dye. Though you might be successful dyeing your entire head of hair with that same box of dye, it could look absolutely hideous if you attempt to color only the bottom half of your hair with the stuff.

If you like to follow the hair trends dip dyeing is definitely worth doing because it’s such a low-commitment look. Whereas some hair color trends are harder to grow out, ombre offers graceful transitioning as the hair becomes longer. But don’t be fooled by the deceptively natural looking appearance that women are able to achieve when they go to the salon for dip dyeing. In actuality, each strand of hair is carefully colored. The hair is not “dipped” into a vat of bleach or dye. Though it looks like it would be simple enough to pull off at home, it’s definitely wise to seek out a stylist to make sure the project doesn’t go off-course.

Make a Statement with Hot Color – Oklahoma City Hair Salon

How brave are you? Are you bold enough to try out one of the hottest trends this summer? Hot hair colors are limited only by your stylist’s and your imagination. All shades of hair color are in style right now from pale pale blonde to hot hot pink. These colors aren’t for the timid and not everyone can wear them to work, but if you really want to get noticed here are some ideas for you.

Pretty pink highlights look stunning in pale blonde hair. For the most dramatic effect have your stylist place chunky pink highlights all over your hair. You can also go a bit more subtle with small pink highlights. If you like the idea of pink highlights, but your job doesn’t permit you to go all out, consider a few small peek-a-boo highlights in the back of your hair.

Ombre hair and dipped dyed hair have joined forces to bring this stunning style. Deep blue ends transition to dark pink and then to a honey blonde. You can get this effect on almost every hair color. Pick your favorite colors and have your stylist create this stunning effect. This look is best for long hair, but it can be adapted to all but very short styles.

Just because you have black or very dark brown hair doesn’t mean you can add a shot of hot color. These bright blue turquoise ends create a one of a kind look on dark hair. Not only is the color combination dramatic, but a razor cut adds an extra element of drama. Notice how color is shot through the bangs for a very trendy look.

One of the prettiest color combinations is red and violet. In this picture red and violet shades are woven throughout the hair. The colors in this picture range from bright red, dark auburn, deep purple, and bright violet. Random pieces of hair are colored and the effect is high fashion and chic.

Your stylist can help you decide which hot colors will look best with your skin tone. If you want to heat up your summer look, go bold and make a statement with hot hair color.

Hairstyles in the News October 17, 2011

Welcome to this week’s Hairstyles in the News! This week several celebrities wore their hair long and wavy. This is a very feminine look, but if you don’t have long hair you can get this look with human hair extensions. Human hair extensions can be styled just like your natural hair and stand up to the heat of curling and flat irons.

Another popular look is the deep side part updo. The key to this look is the use of bobby pins to hold everything together. Styling products are also essential to protect your hair and keep your style looking great. One trend celebrities are really taking to is dark roots. By having their roots colored dark, they can hide any telltale gray hairs that may have sprouted up. Once a serious faux pas, dark roots are now on trend. So let’s move on to this week’s celebrity styles.

Style Bistro

Hilary Duff began her career as a Disney sweetheart and has grown up to be a very polished and talented young woman. At a recent appearance on Good Morning America she wore her hair long with soft waves. This style is easy to obtain, simply use some styling mousse when you blow dry your hair and a large barrel curling iron. Use your fingers to tousle the waves, spritz on some holding spray and shine spray, and you’re done.

Style Bistro

Zoe Saldana side updo at the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic was very flattering to her facial shape and features. To get this look make a deep side part and pull a small section from the part to your ear. Pull your hair off to one side and gather it at the nape of your neck. Twist your hair loosely and secure it behind your ear with bobby pins or u-shaped pins. Use a large barrel curling iron to create soft waves to frame your face.

Michelle Williams pixie at My Week with Marilyn premiere looks cute and polished. A pixie is a wash and go style, perfect if you have a busy lifestyle. A pixie looks best on women who have delicate features, but your stylist can tailor one to fit almost any facial shape.

Gweneth Paltrow hardly has to worry about looking older. She looks great no matter how she wears her hair, and she is just one of the celebrities who have discovered the newest trend of dark roots. Instead of getting their roots touched up to match their blonde color, celebrities are now having their stylist color their roots dark. This is to give them a more youthful appearance and hide any stray gray hairs that may have made an appearance.

Style Bistro

Audrina Patridge’s Ombre hair at the Saints Row: The Third premiere goes from a deep caramel brown to a light golden blonde. This trend has been popular for quite some time. Today you can wear it like Audrina or have the colors reversed and have the top of your hair lighter than the ends. Either way is very chic and looks great.

That’s it for this week. As the season starts to change to cooler weather, expect to see new and different styles being worn by celebrities. Keep your eyes out for new trends, and remember to ask your stylist to recommend products and styles to fit your hair texture, length and thickness.

Get a Hot Celebrity Look With Ombre Hair

Ombre hair is one of the hottest looks with celebrities like Drew Barrymore, Kristin Cavallari, Ashlee Simpson and Racheal Bislon sporting rich brown hair with honey blond ends. Ombre is French for gradation and what makes this look so hot is the gradual blending of dark roots to light ends. Unlike the dreaded dark roots that show up a few weeks after you get your hair colored, this technique is much more subtle and the dark sections of your hair are longer.

The Frisky

Ombre hair a the perfect look if you want to grow out your natural color. It is also a great look for women over 40 because it gives you a youthful look. Ombre hair is also much more natural looking than stark highlights and gives you the look of being in the sun all summer. You can also have more contrast if you’re daring enough. Lady Gaga had Ombre hair with her signature blond and bright yellow on the ends. You can have any color combination depending on the effect you want. Ombre hair works for any hair texture and looks good on straight, wavy and curly hair. Let your stylist design a color combination and gradation that will look great on you.
