1. Root Color
Root color is the process of applying color to the roots of the hair, helping cover gray hair and imperfections like demarcation lines. This makes the roots match the rest of the hair. Depending on the percentage of gray and the rapidity of the client’s hair growth, root color can last up to 6 weeks before requiring a touchup.Conditioners and protein treatments can help care for your hair after dyeing. Lastly, it’s imperative to always go to a professional for your hair coloring needs.
2. Full Color
A full hair dye can alter your look, make your hair look thicker, enhance your facial features, and make you look youthful. It is recommended for people who want to conceal their graying hair and those who just want to try different looks.
Because hair dyes use chemicals, there is always the risk of damaging the hair and making it dry and brittle. It’s important to always select high-quality and organic products and go to a professional not only for the hair coloring process but also for follow-up maintenance treatments.
3. Highlights/Lowlights
Lowlights deepen the hair’s shade and give your hair more volume by adding depth, shadow, and richness. On the other hand, highlights lighten the hair’s shade and brighten the face, particularly around the hairline. Experts recommend a combination of both for a more natural and textured look.
Lowlights are more low maintenance while highlights might require touchups every two to four months. As with other hair coloring processes, frequent highlights and lowlights can lead to dryness and the inability of the hair to retain moisture. It is a must to invest in a hydrating regimen and follow aftercare tips.
4. Balayage/Ombre
A trend fast becoming a favorite of many is Balayage. It is a technique that creates a gradual transition from darker roots to lighter ends, resulting in multidimensional and natural gradation of lightness. There are no harsh lines and the transition between the different shades are seamless.
Balayage is an excellent choice for busy people because it produces the natural-looking results and won’t require frequent touch-ups compared to traditional highlights. However, it can be costly and when done incorrectly, you might not get the best results. Hence, the importance of only hiring a professional.
Another popular hair coloring trend is Ombré hair,The top section is often the natural hair color of the client and the bottom is lightened with the use of a hair lightener and toned according to the client’s preference.
ersatile, easily customizable, and suitable for people with at least medium-length hair, Ombré hair color doesn’t require frequent touch-ups as the top section is the natural shade. Keep in mind that because there is a need to bleach the strands before dyeing, you must follow proper hair care.
