Laci’s Latest: Color Melting

In this edition of “Laci’s Latest,” Laci visits Brandi Holdaway at Salon O to get in on the art of color melting.

Ombre hair, or coloring melting, has been all the rage in Hollywood this last year and is now making its mark here in Utah! Color melting is basically a graduation of color from dark to light, or light to dark.Ombre (the official term) means “shaded,” in French. That says it all – shading isexactly what this trend is all about.

This trend is perfect for that low-maintenance gal! In theory, the more my hair grew out, the better it looked – who doesn’t love that?! I do think it’s important to keep the colors rich and warm – remember, we are going for that beautiful “beachy” glow, not the “yes-I-did-just-grow-out-my-hair” look. The other great thing about this look is you can go as subtle or strong as you would like! Do what’s comfortable for you and have fun looking like a celebrity!
