Hurrah! This is the AMAZING lazy girl trick for mermaid inspired hair
People all over the world are intent on finding a way to achieve the most Instagram worthy hair colour. The lengths people will go to in order to achieve the kind of locks that would make Ariel well jealous are reaching new highs.
The latest innovation is “fluid hair painting”. Yes, it involves the kind of labour intensive colouring techniques you were expecting.
However, you won’t have to spend hours sitting staring at your cloaked self in the mirror. KL Christoffsen, the legend behind the latest viral trend told Modern Salon that clients need to be “reclined”. “Because their hair is fanned out, it gives me the ability to thoroughly look over every strand to see how the colour melts from top to bottom,” she explained.
“It’s easier to see the colour fluidity when you have that elevation. You’re able to have more control,” the colouring genius added. The “colour table” definitely looks amazing and we wouldn’t mind having a little lie down while our hair undergoes an amazing mermaid transformation to be honest.
Admit it, you’ve caught yourself dozing off while having your shampooed, it can be very relaxing.
The technique also means that it is more controlled than the usual balayage method, which creates the super soft colour melt everyone is lusting after.
KL adds: “What I love about using this technique is that the final results are endless – from mimicking sun-kissed baby highlights to creating a multi-colored rainbow explosion. It’s really quite versatile!”
While we are feeling quite tempted to take the plunge and finally embrace the bold trend, KL does warn that people should not try this one at home.
“It’s not just laying down and slapping color on the hair. You should definitely see a licensed professional for this method.”
Not worry though, because colourists all over the world are mastering the technique so it might only be a matter of time before you’re heading down to your favourite salon for a quick nap and a hair transformation.
