Hair

You may have already heard of highlighted brunette, highlights, balayage, Californian and so on, there are so many coloring techniques that we can sometimes get confused, we are here to help answer any questions and offer a selection of 50 ideas for highlighted women's hair that will fall out the chin.

Highlighted hair

Subtly or more prominently highlighted highlights are strategies to sophisticate your hair color, they add depth. Another important factor, for those who color their hair, is the fact that lights break the "flat color" appearance. After all, a natural hair color is not flat, that is, it has slight differences due to the action of the sun and different thicknesses in the hair.

Even the simplest haircut looks beautiful with highlights. They enhance eye color and skin tone, and can even add body to your hair.

Basically, lighting is usually 2 shades lighter than your natural color. They can be done with various techniques.

The latest hair trends suggest natural looks and subtle transitions of hair colors and shades, which make your base color more radiant, accentuate your eyes and skin tone.

Light skin and soft brown hair, for example, go well with highlights just 1 shade lighter. However, you can also opt for more contrasting and bold solutions.

The different coloring techniques

Beach hair look

The effect of highlights causes the lightening to be concentrated at the ends of the hair, with the roots becoming darker. The main characteristic of this technique is the gradient is more evident

Ombré hair

It is a lighting technique that works on lighter strands of hair on a generally darker base. These locks usually start approximately four fingers from the root or a little above the ear. Its gradient is a little softer than the beach hair.

Highlights

It is a subtle hair lighting technique that uses lighter strands of hair on a generally darker base. Highlighted locks usually start approximately four fingers from the root or a little above the ear.

Partial highlight

It's the same idea as with highlights, but in the reflection technique the strands are a little thicker and make a smooth transition between one tone and another, without radically changing the color of the strands and giving the hair a subtly brighter appearance.

Balayage

It is a coloring technique that illuminates the hair, giving it a tanned, natural look. Balayage involves recreating the golden shine that the sun gives your hair during the summer. Balayage is a more natural technique than full hair coloring.
