Ombre with bangs: features and techniques of execution

In recent years, ombre dyeing of strands has been very popular with older girls and women. This style is still in the lead today, it is chosen to create original images. This trendy highlighting allows you to stand out from the monotonous crowd. Ombre with a bang will look especially interesting, it can be done on strands of any length and different shades.

Coloring a bright ombre with bangs is carried out by partial coloring and toning of curls. With this option, it is better to choose a classic coloring. It is possible, and horizontal coloring, but at the same time the bangs are partially lightened. By dyeing hair in the ombre style, they get a very interesting and unusual shade. Thanks to this method of coloring, it is possible to obtain a gradient between a dark shade at the roots and a light shade at the ends of the hair. This is a fairly versatile technique that allows you to use it on hair of different lengths, colors and on any haircut.

Ombre assumes non-uniform coloring of the strands with a transition, ranging from a dark shade to a lighter shade, or vice versa. The transition is usually clearly visible horizontally, while it should be located a short distance from the roots or at the bottom of the length. The peculiarity of this technique is that it produces a blurred border of colors. When applied to long strands, it can give the impression that there is another color in the middle, although only the base and light shade is used for dyeing. The lightened part of the head is painted over solid, because of this, the tone comes out the most saturated.

Ombre has the following advantages:

• thanks to this method of coloring, you can quickly put your hair in order, while you need to wait about 3 months before the next procedure;
• with correct staining, beautiful shades can be achieved;
• hair with this dyeing is less exposed to the negative effects of chemicals.

The disadvantage of this procedure is that only women of fashion with healthy hair, without split ends, can afford it, otherwise the hairstyle will seem untidy. Excessive or unprofessional coloring can cause severe damage to the hair, which is corrected by cutting. And also, if the color is incorrect, a pronounced border in the transition of shades will be visible, which will look less attractive.

When choosing such a coloring, it is worth making sure whether the ombre is suitable for the type of face, and how to visually make the image more attractive.

• With a round face, the masters are advised to make the crown darker, while adding light highlights at the top of the hairstyle. This will visually stretch the face.

• Suitable for a bright ombre and girls with an oval face shape. This form is considered very harmonious for them, besides, its owners are suitable for various haircuts and any coloring. To enhance the effect, it is worth adding a little more light strands around the face.

• For those with a square or rectangular face, it is important to soften harsh corners. To soften the cheekbones, alternate between dark and light shades to soften and visually narrow the forehead and chin. And also it is worth visually stretching the face; for this, separate strands on the crown of the head are separately highlighted.

• For owners of a triangular type of face, it is important to smooth out the imperfections. To visually make a wide forehead less visible and a sharp chin less noticeable, you need to use bangs. For this type of face, oblique bangs or even bangs with tinted highlights are more suitable.

• For a trapezoidal face, it is better to use contrasting strands. The alternation of dark strands with light ones allows you to hide a powerful chin and soften the lower part of the face.

For "summer" young ladies, the ideal solution would be amber, caramel or hazelnut. These shades will give a rich color to the strands at the roots. And you can also choose reddish tones, which will enhance the image, give it creativity and originality.

• Owners of the "Winter" color type can choose an ombre with a transition. These ladies are more suitable for a chocolate shade, "coffee with milk", and stylists also recommend them to choose a tone of hazelnut or alder.
