This type of hairstyle is excellent for women who want a new look without drastically changing. The orange color allows it to go with most hair colors and styles.
An orange ombre can start as any warm or light brown shade and then be dyed orange using box dye or henna. The pastel-tinted color will wash out within weeks, giving your hair a healthier tone.
There are many different methods to create an orange ombre, but the most common is using two shades of brown: light brown at the base and a darker shade in the middle. The color will gradually fade as time goes by, giving it a natural look and allowing you to restyle your hair regularly without having to choose another style.
Here are some favorite tips for creating an orange ombre:
Apply your box dye with long strands first, then after about ten minutes, apply your light brown hair dye over the top. Leave it on for 6 minutes or until the colors have blended.
If your box dye does not create a solid color, you can use a highlighting kit. Most of these kits have instructions for creating an orange ombre.
Always test the color on a small strand of hair first to ensure you like the shade before applying it to all your hair.
As you can see, an orange ombre hairstyle is effortless to create for even the most amateur of stylists. The only real danger is that it could come out too bright or unnatural. For best results, only use boxed dyes and highlight kits that include henna, which will give your hair a natural look and make it as shiny as possible.
