So I’ve been seeing this new hair color everywhere now and actually have started to take a liking to it! It’s called “Ombre”, or “Melting”, where the roots are dark and the tips are lighter. There are a few ways I have heard, to do it. Some say that you tease the hair and paint the lighter color on the ends of the tease so it isn’t a perfect line of demarcation going all the way across. Others say you paint the hair halfway down, a mid-tone and then put a light tone on the ends of that. Or, if you just let your roots grow-out, you can achieve the look naturally, since this style can cost you a pretty penny if you want it done right! Here’s some celebs that I’ve seen rock this style:
Drew Barrymore looks super playful with her ultra-blonde tips! Her stylist did a great job of blending it so it doesn’t look too harsh.
Sarah Jessica Parker keeps it classy with shiny, wavy locks that gradually become lighter.
Jessica Biel likes it polished with a not-too-drastic difference from root to tip, but just enough to add some dimension.
Rachel Bilson pulls off the grungy, unkempt look by glamming it up with a hot pink lip and alternating waves.
Hilary Duff looks like a true California girl with her beachy strands.
What do you think about this style? Is it here to stay – or will it “fade out”? I say, if you’re looking for a change, try it out! Remember, it’s just hair! :)
