how to get the ombre color look


First off What is Ombré?


Ombré is a French word which means “shading”. It is very specific in pattern, and is also termed as color-bleeding, as color bleeds form dark to light or light to dark. Usually this involves using shades from the same color family, but there are exceptions.
This gradual merging of shades (or color bleeding) is both elegant and feminine. Unlike the hippie tie-dye, there is a much smoother transition between colors. The color bleeding can be used to create a dramatic look or a soft one, depending on the graduated strength of the dye effect.

Basically, The contrast between the lightly colored hair ends and the dark roots is no longer a sign of unkempt hair color and perfection is no longer a necessary attribute.
