- Select the strand. We dip the brush in the paint and apply the liquid to the curl. The paint should be applied from the middle of the strand, moving down. It is important to remember that there is no need to maintain a clear border of staining. The point is that if there is nosmooth transition, then the ombre effect simply cannot be achieved. You need to paint slowly so that the mixture is qualitatively absorbed into each hair. To achieve the best effect, you can allocate one hour for this process.
- After the hair is dyed, carefully wrap the strands in foil and leave for a certain time. It will take thirty minutes. If the hair is dark, it will take more time. As a rule, a special instruction is attached to the paint, which indicates the required number of minutes for each hair color. After the time has passed, remove the foil.
- The most crucial stage has come, which allows you to get the desired effect. The remaining paint should be applied to hair that is a few centimeters higher than just dyed. After doing this, wait exactly fifteen minutes. Then wash your hair.
- When your hair is dry, proceed to the final step. In order for the tips to be clarified as efficiently as possible, go over them again with the remaining paint. Wait ten minutes, wash your hair again. If there is a balm that protects the strands from damage, then you can use it.
- Dry, style and enjoy the ombre effect.
