This Awesome Dye Trend Will Make You Book a Salon Appointment ASAP

Earlier this Fall, everyone flipped for hand-pressed hair color because of how innovative the technique was (not to mention the beauty of the results!). But if you're a gal looking for glimmering rainbow strands that actually look like they organically grew from your scalp, you need to ask your colorist about fluid hair painting.

Developed by KL Christofferson, a colorist at Cheeky Strut Salon in Michigan, the method is like a more precise version of balayage. The client's hair is fanned out over a flat surface, and the expert carefully paints dye down the shaft of the hair in segments. The result is a soft, stunning gradient of color that appears completely natural. Get a closer look at the gorgeous examples and videos of the technique when you read on.
