Holographic hair is trending and it’s grooving on Instagram!

You know that color effect when you put the back of a CD or DVD in the sun? That mixture of pink, blue, green, purple, all kind of together and impossible to separate?

So, this effect has now become a fashion in hair coloring and is making waves on Instagram – and on the streets too!

The trend is called holographic hair and it has everything to do with the unicorn fashion that took over the looks and makeup of fashionistas.

To produce the effect, colorists need to start with very light blonde hair. So, know that you will most likely need to bleach your strands a lot if you want to follow the wave.

Only after the hair is very light are the blue, pink, green and lilac tones applied to the locks.

Colors for inspiration

As with other rainbow effect hair colors, holographic hair is not the same for everyone.

You can invest more or less in your favorite shade, you can leave one of them completely out of the project, you can opt for streaks with more mixed or defined colors… This is up to you.

Also, of course, the hairstyle makes a lot of difference when it comes to displaying the final coloring effect. Check out some inspiring holographic hair ideas that the edgiest girls have already posted on Instagram:
