Hair Color Ombré Fairfax Salon Reflections of You Highlights

Ombré has taken over, but now it's time we play with the idea of what world renowned hair colorist, Beth Minardi, refers to as "lit from within". She tells us that the idea of using this technique is to create "a deeper root and highlights that look as if they have grown out from the scalp." The defenition of the word ombré is a visual transformation of color from light to dark.  Ombré is everywhere from our hair, to our nails and even carried out in fashion through our wardrobe. This style has grown popular among celebrities and you can hardly find a magazine without some form of ombré featured on the front cover.

As a stylist at Reflections of You Salon in Fairfax, I have found that each guest wants me to create a customized version of ombré for them. In some cases, guests want more of the highlights to peek out from underneath a beautiful rich color. For this look, Reflections of You Fairfax has created Highlights in Motion. Highlights in Motion is a popular trending technique that creates elements of movement with multiple colors of dimension within the hair. Using this technique we can accentuate the depths of your hair by specific placement of highlights and lowlights that peek purposefully from underneath and cascade beautifully to frame the face.
In most other cases I have found that my guests are interested in a look where the highlights are more noticable and dramatic. Reflections of You Fairfax created the Summer Lights technique to use in this scenario. Summer Lights is a highlighting and lowlighting technique used to create a bolder effect of color to enhance the overall look as fuller and more vibrant. If you are ready for pieces that pop, then this is the technique for you!
Both techniques that we have developed as a "play on ombré" are beautiful transitions for hair that take the beauty industry to an entire new level. Guests want and deserve to feel like an individual. Services are meant to be tailored and customized base on your preferences and lifestyle. At Reflections of You Fairfax is a united goal to create the ultimate experience for each guest by creating these techniques that enhance your natural beauty! Ombré "breaks the rules" of haircolor by creating a look of roots. This has enocuraged guests to step out of their comfort zone and into the hands of your haircolor experts!
