Here's what color melting is all about.
Ever settled for one or two colors and wished for more? Or felt let down when the colors looked too separate once applied? Color melting might be exactly what you are after. It starts by choosing a palette that complements skin tone, personal style and how the hair frames the face. Seasonal trends and makeup preferences play a role too. HICI Go includes color melting in its catalog of hair courses.
Stylists have a few approaches to choose from depending on the look. Some freehand the highlight blend throughout the hair or focus it around the face. From there, darker tones come into play in different ways.
An ombré-style approach starts with a darker base, then lightens and blends from the midlengths down to the ends. Another option darkens the roots and lightens the rest of the hair. Color melting works across the spectrum, blonde, brunette, red, gray, platinum, pastel, copper or honey.
Lighter, brighter tones near the face and bangs catch the light, while a smooth blend of color runs through the rest of the hair. The result plays beautifully with skin tone and personal style and it shows off differently with every new hairstyle.
