Check out these bright, multi-colored dip-dye locks. First spotted on the locks of Lauren Conrad, this funky hairstyle trend can easily be done at home in just 3 simple steps:
You Will Need: Rubber gloves, pastels, spray bottle, old towel, hair clips and soft oil pastels
1. Section + Dampen
Separate the strands of hair you would like to color and use the spray bottle to slightly dampen the hair. If you don’t have a spray bottle on hand, simply running a comb under water will work just fine.
2. Color
Simply take a section of dampened hair, hold it tight and rub on your choice of the colored pastels in a downward direction until the color adheres. My boyfriend actually had the genius idea of laying my hair on scrap paper on a flat surface to rub the pastel on it. SO MUCH easier than just holding it in the air.
3. Style
Now that you’ve applied the desired amount of color to your hair, style it as usual. Colored strands would brighten up any braid and they also look adorable slightly curled, just how Lauren often wears this trend.
