Ombré Color

From Britney, Hairstylist @ Atelier Emmanuel

"With Fall come new trends and styles. So maybe you're loving summer’s hilites, but want to spice it up for fall. Or maybe you’re new to the world of haircolor ...Or maybe, like most of us, you just need a change! Well ladies, I’d like to introduce you to the Ombré hair coloring style! “Ombré” literally means shadow in french, and the color technique takes a cue from hand-dyed fabrics. It is a graduation of color from dark at the roots to light ends, which more or less looks like you have some seriously grown out color-but done with style. Its the same idea of distressed jeans. They’re ripped, faded and trendy, definitely not boring. “Rooty” hilites have always been fashionable but this takes it to a whole new level. Roots are dark-natural and fade into a lighter shade from mid-shaft to the ends, all while keeping warmth and light around the face. It’s a very beachy, natural look without being boring... And it is not just for blondes! Look around and you’ll see it on celebrities in different variations from the more subdued, subtle look of Camila Alves to the trendy extreme flashes of color of Drew Barrymore. How intense you take it is completely up to you, but here’s the best part: It only looks better over time! It’s a totally new style that gives you a trendy edge, and is super low maintenance...what’s not to love?!"
