Ah, the eternal quest for that perfect hair color that doesn't tie us down or demand constant upkeep or trips to the salon. Ombré hair, a trend that's as forgiving as it is fabulous, is proving to be a steadfast favorite among those who grace our screens and feeds.
But here's the million-dollar question: Can you really achieve envy-inducing ombré locks from the comfort of your own bathroom? With OVERTONE, the answer is a resounding yes. Let's dive into everything you need to know about DIY ombré hair.
The Lowdown on DIY Ombré
Ombré hair: it's like the cool, laid-back cousin of the hair color family. Known for its seamless gradient from darker roots to lighter ends, ombré offers a stylish solution for those craving change without the commitment. It's a universally flattering style, versatile enough to suit any length, texture, or starting shade.
Step-by-Step to Salon-Worthy Ombré
Achieving that salon-grade ombré at home is all about technique and choosing the right products. Here's a simple guide to get you started:
Step 01: Choose Your Color
With OVERTONE's Color Depositing Treatment Masks, selecting your ideal shades are a breeze. The vegan, cruelty-free formulas are infused with ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, evening primrose oil, spearmint oil, and rosemary oil to nourish and condition your scalp and strands. Looking for a natural hue or a bold transformation? We've got you covered.
Step 02: Prep Your Hair
Make sure your hair is clean, detangled, and dry. Sectioning your hair can help manage the process and ensure even application.
Step 03: Apply with Care
Starting at your ends, apply the color, making sure to thoroughly saturate the bottom and work upward. If you're using several colors, apply the first color to several inches of hair, follow with your second color, and repeat this process as desired. For a more natural gradient, use a brush or your fingers to blend the color softly.
Step 04: Wait, Then Rinse
Chill out for 15 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water. No damage, no drama here, just vibrant, conditioned locks.
Step 05: Wash, Style, and Reveal
Style your freshly ombré'd hair as usual and get ready to turn heads!
Step 06: Maintain Your Ombré Hair with OVERTONE
When it's time to wash, grab one or two of our Daily Conditioners in shades to match your ombré. These color-depositing conditioners help extend the life of your color while leaving your hair soft, shiny and manageable.
