100 photos of hair with magnificent highlights to inspire your new look

Some people are faithful to their original look, especially the cut and coloring of the strands, whether natural or artificial. However, some people love change and are always looking for new techniques and colors to change the look.

For people looking for changes, coloring is one of the most common options. They can be discreet or more radical, but they can provide the change in look so sought after.

Among the coloring techniques, highlights, balayage, ombré and Californian stand out. But recently colored hair has gained strength in the “street style” and has also become a modality of locks for those who are more willing to dare.

Check out several possibilities of locks below, learn about the techniques and identify the one that most resonates with you, and maybe bet on changing the look.

Lights

The lights are certainly the most popular type of lock among Brazilian women. The main feature of this technique is the thin locks that start close to the root of the hair. The retouching of this technique can be done between 3 and 4 months and is a good alternative for those who want to go blonder, without requiring extremely frequent maintenance. The indication is that blondes opt for more platinum tones of light, while brunettes favor more honey tones.

balayage

Balaiagem is very similar to the lights, but the differential of this technique is the use of different shades in the locks, mixing different shades of blonde. The variation of tones serves to create a kind of background for the lighter strands, which ensures a more natural look and avoids an intense contrast between natural and dyed strands.

ombré

The main feature of the ombré technique is that it maintains the root of the original color, in addition to creating a gradient along the strands, so that dyed strands blend with the natural strands. This is another technique that does not require high attendance at the beauty salon and a great alternative for brunettes to keep their roots in their original tone.

Californian

As the name of the technique refers to, this type of locks is suitable for those who want to create a more beachy and unpretentious look. A factor that is fundamental to differentiate this technique from the others is that the dyeing is located close to the ends of the threads. This technique is ideal for brunettes who want to lighten their hair.

colored locks

Colored hair has recently become trends and has won the hair of many young women. The dyeing process is similar to other wick techniques, the difference is the colored ink that is applied to the threads. As colored strands tend to fade faster, this coloring requires great care and maintenance. Certainly this is a look for those who are daring and open to more radical changes.
