Summer is always for bright colours and experimental haircuts, especially the short hairstyles. The latest trend is of painting the town blue with bold denim colours. Denim hair is usually a mix of sea blues, which are very soothing to the eyes and extremely fashionable for the wearer. The pop colour makes one stand out. We asked our hair experts Pia Balwani, owner and hairstylist, Hair OK Please, Mumbai andMayophi Zingkhai, founder Mayophi, hairstylist and beauty expert if the trend is suitable for Indian skin and here s what they have to say.
Just like your pair of denims, the denim hair look goes well with everything. You can try from the range of your favourite denim colours and even opt for an acid wash effect. Go bold by experimenting with bright blue or aqua shades, dark blues and many more. You can try streaks or highlights or even chunks and for those who think hair colour damages the hair but still want to try something fun,they can always play safe by coloring just the tips says Pia Balwani. You can easily chop off the tips after few months when you go for your next haircut. Here are six tips you need to keep in mind about hair colouring.
Does denim hair suit all hair types and skin tones?
Crazy colours like these can go with any skin tone. Length can never be a problem for such colours and those with long hair can opt for chunks or tips suggests Pia. Anyone with a bold personality and confidence to carry crazy colours is her ideal choice for such experiments, says Mayophi. She prefers seeing her customer, analysing their face cut, type of hair and body language before suggesting the shades of denim. Mayophi likes the denim colour on the graduated bob style of hair cut. Girls with long hair can choose denim streaks too and tie their hair in a messy bun to beat the summer heat. Here's how to make your hair colour last longer.
The pre-lightening process for this colour can be slightly damaging to the hair. Hence, those with thin or damaged hair should avoid following this trend blindly suggests Mayophi. Your hairstylist can recommend you the hair colour depending on your skin tone. Bold hair colours need extra pampering and care. Here s everything about maintaining coloured hair. You cannot skip the hair damage caused due to colouring completely but with the right shampoo and conditioners and a hair spa every fortnight, you can maintain the health of your tresses.
