HIGHLIGHTS: OMBRE HIGHLIGHTS, BALAYAGE HIGHLIGHTS AND FOILS HIGHLIGHTS

BLONDES: ASH & WARM

How about an ice-white blond to brighten up a dreary spring day? Keep a color this light well cared for with regular trims and moisturizing treatment. Add movement through your platinum locks for a softer finish. Bleach-blond styles are perfect. Darken your brows for a fashion-forward finish. Play with your classic Marilyn-blond hue by adding gel products throughout for a slick, retro look. Warm, honey-streaked locks are gorgeous any time of the year. Sandy blonde hair works best with fair skin and light-colored eyes. Finely textured hair worn in a wavy style promotes fullness, volume and dimension.

BLACK & BRUNETTES

Soft-black tone works best on naturally dark hair that simply needs color balancing. Soft black hair works best on most skin tones and light or brown colored eyes. Thick hair is best worn in full curls or lush waves for improved control and manageability. Deep brunettes can spice up their look with this rich, cinnamon shade. Warm tones are quite flattering and create a more youthful appearance. Medium brown hair works best on fair to medium skin tones and light colored eyes. Hair is best worn in soft, spiral curls to encourage dimension and high shine. A warm-brown shade is a great choice when transitioning from blonde to brunette hair. Super-reflective tones ease the shock of going darker by offering lots of shiny dimension.

OMBRE HIGHLIGHTS

Create high impact color with this fashionable ombré style. Color blocking techniques allow you to experiment with minimal maintenance. Dimensional brunette hair works best on fair to medium skin tones and light or brown colored eyes. Hair is best worn long or medium-length with full radiant curls. Gray hair may look age wise, but not everyone likes to look older. Covering it up is one quick way to turn back the clock and look younger. But what causes gray hair? As you age, your natural production of pigment slows down and your natural color loses its color strength.
