Regular touch-ups? No, thanks. This oil slick ombre allows ladies to go longer between hair appointments by keeping the color strictly to the ends (if you're working with your natural hair color at the root, of course). Just be sure to use a color-safe shampoo and conditioner (we love B3 Brazilian Bond Builder Color Care Shampoo, $30, and the B3 Brazilian Bond Builder Color Care Conditioner, $32), to ensure your dazzling strands stay fabulous.
This 'do is pure mermaid magic. Play up vivid colors by adding some texture to the hair. Grab a 1-inch curling iron and, starting at eye level, curl hair, alternating directions with each section until your whole head is a beaming with bouncy, colorful tendrils.
Could her hair be any more slick? (Hehe.) Her dark and shiny mane works as a perfect contrast against the vivid pops of color, and plays up the chic, "inky" look that oil slick hair calls for. And they say blondes do it better, psh.
Her head is just blossoming with awe-inspiring hues. While her hair looks magical, that enchanting color didn't take without a little help from bleach. This brunette beauty had to pre-lighten strands before achieving this style. But hey, it's clearly 100 percent worth it.
Anyone else dying over this perfectly crafted hair color and style? To really make the color stand out, Crutchfield-Christoni recommends adding some extra shine with your favorite hair serum. We love John Frieda Frizz Ease Original Six Effects Serum, $9.99, which tames frizz, adds shine and hides split ends thanks to its silk proteins (which is a godsend for pre-lightened strands.)
