While this flashy maroon mane may be a little edgy for you, the same colorblocking dye technique can be used on shades like brunette and blonde — it's all about providing dimension to your strands. "This technique is designed to layer three colors on top of each other through the hair, creating a unique look that shows all three," clarified Black.
Though this art-deco-inspired look seems intricate, it's actually quite simple and quick for a colorist to achieve at a salon. Black recommended that the hair be sectioned into three blocks. "Each one [should be] smaller than the last, and each one is colored a different color to layer the colors on top of one another," he said.
Should you choose to re-create this technique with vibrant shades, avoid frequent shampoos, which will fade your color faster. "Aveda Dry Shampoo ($26) will freshen up your hair without the worries of vibrancy lost from your hair," Black added.
