Ombre Styles and DIY Dye Tips

Peachy Keen Softness

Heading number five showcases a short haircut with a delicate, peachy pastel hue. This color whispers rather than shouts, making it suitable for a variety of personalities, particularly those with a penchant for understated elegance. For this Capri-inspired look, try the Lime Crime Unicorn Hair in Sushi. It’s gentle, deposit-only dye that’s perfect for achieving a soft, pastel touch.

In terms of care, this color short style will benefit from the TIGI Bed Head Dumb Blonde Reconstructor. Use a low-heat setting on your hair tools and always apply a heat protectant, such as the ghd Heat Protect Spray, to keep your peachy strands from drying out.

Sleek and Chic Sunset

Our final photo, under the sixth subheading, is the epitome of chic with its sleek short pixie cut drenched in a gradient of sunset colors from a deep caramel at the roots to a vibrant orange at the tips. It’s a style that exudes confidence and would work well for those with a more edgy aesthetic, though it may not be the best choice for someone with a conservative wardrobe. To achieve this, I’d recommend the Pravana ChromaSilk Vivids in Wild Orchid to Sunset. The key here is to apply the dye in sections to ensure a smooth color transition.

To keep this color ombre purple look sharp and the color intact, maintenance is key. Opt for the Kérastase Reflection Bain Chromatique Sulfate-Free Shampoo for longevity, and treat your hair to the Living Proof Restore Mask Treatment weekly to maintain health and shine.

Fiery Waves of Elegance

This hairstyle is a cascade of warmth, featuring deep red that melts into rich orange and sunny yellow highlights, creating a vivid ombre fire effect. It’s perfect for someone who loves to stand out and has the confidence to carry such a bold statement. However, it may not be the first choice for those preferring a more natural look. At home, to achieve this sunset hair color 2024, you could use Garnier Nutrisse Ultra Color in shades of Intense Red for the base and Light Intense Auburn for the highlights.

To maintain this ombre red vibrancy, I swear by the Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray, which works wonders to keep frizz at bay and color locked in. Couple that with the Olaplex No.3 Hair Perfector weekly, and your fiery waves will stay as stunning as a sunset sky.

The Bold and Beautiful Sunset Lob

Here we have a lob that’s anything but subtle, with a bold transition from a vibrant red to a bright orange, capturing the essence of a blazing sunset. This cut is perfect for the trendsetters and the bold at heart, but might not cater to those who favor a more classic look. To recreate this color ombre, consider using Arctic Fox Hair Color in Poison for the red, and Sunset Orange for the, well, orange!

Caring for such a statement piece, I recommend Biolage Colorlast Shampoo for cleansing while preserving color. Follow up with the Biolage Colorlast Conditioner, and once a week, treat your hair to the Biolage Colorlast Mask for deep nourishment.
