Term: Ombré Hair Color Types

There are two different types of ombré:

A subtler version of ombré is called sombré.

In a sombré hairstyle, the contrast between the two tones is softer.

Another variation is called color melting. In color melting, two or three hair color shades may be used on each strand, and each shade is blended with the side of the hair color brush so that they appear to melt into each other.

Like ombré, color melting can be done with natural-looking hair color shades or with any of the fun colors of the rainbow.

Daily Hair Tip
To protect against potential heat damage to your hair, always use a blow drier on the coolest setting and make sure to apply a good leave in conditioner that will protect the hair shaft from the dryer.
