Sure dying your hair a normal color (i.e. blond, brown, etc..) can be fun, why not spice it up a bit. Having colorful hair is a great way to express yourself and showcase the fun side of your personality. There are seemingly endless colors to dye your hair, and tons of ways to do it. It doesn’t matter if you dye your hair green or blue or red. And it doesn’t matter if you use hair chalk, or wash in shampoo, or permanent dye (although you should always avoid anything that will cause permanent damage). These colorful hair ideas will make you look amazing. And what better time to try a new do than in the summer. You can show off your luscious locks at the beach or park, and make sure everyone can see them.
Half and Half
This is one of the fiercest looks you can have from dying your hair, and it makes one of the boldest statements. Half and half will show you as fearless and unique. Although you should note you can never change your hair part while you have this dye job. With half and half hair you will look like you were meant to be a movie character.
Highlights
Highlights are great for beginners. They add a little bit of color to your hair without being too bold. You can make your highlights as bright or subdued as you desire. Plus you don’t have to pick just one color for highlights. You can have a single color throughout, or you can spice it up with different shades.
Ombre
Of course you can balayage your hair so it’s brown and blond, but why stop there? Ombre dye is a great way to showcase your favorite color. Plus you can easily make this happen at home through dip dying. But you don’t need to stop at having the ends be a fun color, you can make the top colorful too. You can pick your two favorite colors and see how they mix together.
Underneath
This is a great way to dip your toes into the world of hair dying. If you don’t want people to see, or you want your hair color less noticeable, you can just let down the top half. But you can also put your hair half up half down for party time. This is a great way to get color that peaks through. And if you want to dye the top half of your hair too, you totally can.
Just the Bangs
Obviously this hair idea is limited to those with bangs, but if you don’t have them you can get some really easily. Colored bangs are a great way to make an extravagant entrance. You can do colorful bangs with colorful hair, or leave the rest of your hair natural. This colorful hair idea does take constant styling so that the dyed and undyed portions of your hair stay separated, but the work is worth it.
Stripes
This colorful hair idea is similar to highlights, except the color is everywhere. Dying all your strands different colors can look absolutely beautiful. If you can’t decide on one color, pick three or four. Although you should try to stick to one color scheme so that everything goes together. Also be warned that you probably shouldn’t do this one on your own, it will look better if you get in done. But when it is done right it looks flawless.
Rainbow
Why have one color or even two when you can have them all? Rainbow hair looks amazing and there are tons of ways to do it. You can have rainbow hair just as highlights, all over your head, only on the bottom layer, and much more. It is a great way to show your colorful personality. Although straight girls should be warned that the rainbow is already owned by the queer community. But if you are queer, so express that through your hair, you will look amazing doing it. You can also try dying your hair the colors of the various queer flags (ex. purple, pink, and blue for bisexuality).
Front Strands
This trend has been really big on Tik Tok recently, especially if you dye your hair pink. But don’t feel limited by the teen trenders online, you can dye the front to stands whatever color you want. This hairstyle is the reverse of business in the front, party in the back. The front strands dye job will help you catch people attention with how fun you are, then they will see you’re also an intelligent thoughtful person later. Plus this is a great way to try colorful hair without going all the way.
Your Whole Head
This is the absolute classic. So why change something that is working? Go dye all your hair one solid color. It will make a bold statement and you will look awesome. If you are doing your hair yourself dying your whole head can be easier than many of the other options. Remember to treat your hair kindly. And have fun while you dye.
