Ombre on dark brown hair

Today, the beauty industry is gaining momentum, and this applies not only to skin care and makeup, but also to hairdressing. Each season, stylists offer their clients many types of services, not only inventing new techniques, but also improving old ones. One of the interesting types of hair coloring is ombre. Particularly lucky in this regard are girls and women with dark brown hair.

Ombre is the coloring of hair with the goal of giving it the appearance of a slightly burnt out sun. This solution allows you to visually adjust the shape of the face and rejuvenate it. Translated from the French language, the word ombre means “shadow”, and this name is the best suited for this technique. Usually on the roots, the hair is darker, and below - a few tones lighter. This allows curls to beautifully shimmer and play with glare in the sun. A distinctive feature of the ombre is also a different coloring technology - for example, the transition between curls can be almost invisible to the eye, and can have a clear, obvious border.

Ombre staining has several advantages, we will consider them in more detail.

• Ombre is suitable for both a young girl and a mature, and even an elderly woman. At the same time, physique, clothing or life style does not matter.
• In the arsenal of stylists there are always hundreds of shades, any of which the owner of brown hair can choose for herself.
• With this technology, the hair does not suffer, especially if you dye only their ends.
• Ombre does not require frequent and immediate corrections, the hairdresser will only have to show up once a quarter.
• If dyeing does not give the desired result, the ends of the hair can simply be cut off, thus returning to a proven style.
• Ombre will allow to change style and image effectively, but without cardinal actions. In addition, after such dyeing, dull blond hair acquires brightness and shine.

With so many pluses, ombre also has its drawbacks.

• If you have too weak, thin curls, especially with split ends, you should wait a while with the treatment of hair.
• On too short hair, such a dyeing also does not work, it just gets lost and remains invisible to others.
• The price in a good cabin will be quite high. In addition, not every master can make a decent coloring, because the procedure is difficult if you make an ombre along the entire length.
• If you have chosen ombre, you have to carefully choose the shades. Wrong shade can completely ruin the hairstyle.

There are several types of ombre that suit ladies with dark blond hair.

The classic ombre is designed to provide curls with a burnout effect. In this technology, as a rule, 1-2 colors are used, and the borders should be smooth, blurry. This ombre looks very natural, suitable for girls with any type of face and hair length. However, it looks especially beautiful on long strands.

A similar type of ombre is also very suitable for long hair, as well as curls of medium length. There are pronounced color transitions, but the master selects a shade similar to the girl’s hair color. The finished result looks natural and beautiful.

A sharp or bitonal ombre is an option for girls who want to "change their hair style" on a grand scale. In this technique, there is a clear border that creates the appearance of regrown hair.

In some ways, this variety is similar to the classics, but in this case more attention is paid not to the tips, but to the roots. They are artificially darkened, making a harmonious color transition. Suitable technique for hair of any length, including short. Looks very nice on a bob style hairstyle.

On dark blond hair, colored ombre looks most impressive. Here you can choose tones, not only close to the color of the hair, but also colors that are unusual for them: pink, blue, purple. The scope for experiments is open, so stylists recommend combining several bright colors. This allows you to get an unexpected but interesting result.

Separately, it should be said about the ombre on hairstyles with bangs. In many cases, the masters do not touch the bangs at all, especially when it comes to short hair. But if the hair is long or medium length, dyeing the bangs allows you to further improve the image. For example, you can paint several tips in warm colors or take one bright shade and make “feathers”.

Girls having color type "winter", shades that emphasize the "coldness" of the image are perfect. It can be silver, ash-gray colors. In addition, restrained colors visually lengthen the hair and refresh the face. Another “winter” ladies can recommend a colored ombre in pink, lilac, dark purple.

Girl spring" will be able to radically change her appearance if she pays attention to warm, cozy tones. It can be caramel, honey, light chocolate colors. But cold colors should be avoided, since a pale and unhealthy skin tone will be provided.

Concerning "Summer" color type, then almost all shades are suitable here. Both cold and warm tones will look unusually. The rejuvenation of the face will help the colors of baked milk, light red, pale pink. For more extreme options, girls may prefer bright orange, red, blue.
