a color & cut makeover with the objective of creating a subtle ombre look, which is a more natural and modern take on its original incranation (and in my opinion more beautiful). Although the trend started with an intentional drastic contrast between the roots and midshaft/ends, it has become wrongly interpreted by many as simply hair that was once highlighted and then neglected, with long, dark roots and grown out highlights. This is neither natural nor attractive. There’s a big difference between well-executed ombre haircolor and when you just stop highlighting your hair.
What you see in these photos is an example of the ombre . It’s an evolution of a trend, that is more refined but done with the same objective of having hair that’s darker in the roots and lighter toward the ends. To create this subtle ombre, the balayage hand-painting method of highlighting was used, since the highlights come out less harsh and ”stripy,” and more blended with the rest of the hair.The model started out with what that many mistake for ombre - grown out brassy highlights with dark roots. You can see how in the “after” photos her hair looks blended, with a graduation of color from roots to ends and without sharp lines - like nature intended, but even better! In addition to her color, a concave layered cut to get rid of the heaviness and add more shape so her hair can fall beautifully.
