The most common trend is to opt for a peekaboo two-tone hairstyle, where one tone is hidden. But if you want to go all out, opt for a blunt contrast.

First, pick the colors you want and make sure they are contrasting shades. You will need to consider your surface skin tone, undertone, hair color, usual makeup, and clothes when making this decision.
What You Need
- Boxes of two hair colors
- Old towel
- Petroleum Jelly
- Sectioning clips
- Bowl
- Hair coloring brush
How To Do
- Divide your hair horizontally (from ear to ear) and clip up the top section.
- Apply one hair dye to the lower half of your hair.
- Cover this section with a foil to prevent it from getting on the top section.
- Apply the second color to the top section of your hair.
- Wait for the required time. Keep checking every 5-10 minutes to see if it has reached the desired shade.
- Wash off the color once it has reached your desired shade.
If you want to go for a very stark contrast, it’s better to get it done at a professional salon.
