Ombre/Dip Dye anyone?

So, at the moment, my hair is currently a very subtle Ombre style.
I totally love this look, there's so many benefits to it.

1. If you naturally have dark hair, you don't have to colour your hair as often, as regrowth helps the look, just try and get the roots as close as possible to your natural colour.

2. It doesn't matter if the colour fades after washing it a few times - it also helps the look.

3. It's the laziest hair style ever, especially if your hair grows fast.

4. You can do it yourself!

Whether you like the more natural look, or the brightly coloured dip dye, we suggest trying this easy soloution at least ONCE.

Here's how to do it yourself!

DIY Ombre Hair:

• Don’t use blonde hair dye for this process because you need major lift (i.e., bleach). Get a highlighting kit instead.
• To get the ombre affect, you can apply the solution to the ends of you hair, let it process, wash it off, and then apply the solution again–this time focusing on the ends only. This will help you get lighter ends, hence ombre. Keep in mind that you can go as light as you want on the end because this is where you want your hair the blondest.
• Another way to achieve this is to apply the color all at once, but apply the solution on the tips first, applying more solution here. Let it process and then move up toward your chin, applying more solution, but never going above chin level.
• Toward the end of the lightening process, you can also pop in just a few highlights around your face, if you want to break up the color.
• Always note your processing time. The longer the solution is on your hair, the more the color will lift. Begin coloring with a plan in mind.
• If you’re more experienced, you can also use a hair color brush to paint on the solution. Focus on the bottom of your hair using the balayage technique that stylists use to create ombre hair.
• As with any at-home hair color, always read the directions that come with the color!
