Trend: Ombre Hair

          

I'm sure many of us have seen countless of photos and people rocking ombre hair. This trend really sky-rocketed about two years ago when a multitude of celebrities were spotted with this new trend. However, it is two years later, and we still see loads of women sporting the popular hair style. But that's still really all it is, a trend.

Khloe Kardashian has frequently had her hair ombred.

Miley Cyrus' ombre gave inspiration for those with shorter hair.

Ombre hair is really not a time-lasting style, I don't see it continuing to be popular in ten years but that doesn't mean we shouldn't take advantage of it while it's here.

I have always wanted ombre hair and still do. As a natural brunette, I fantasize about getting to try out some blonder tips while keeping what is natural to me--it's like a compromise. I plan on getting it done at some point in my life, whether it's still in style or not.

Perhaps ombre, particularly the bleached-tipped/caramel ombre has lasted so long because it allows many of us non-blondes to venture and try out what it's like to be a blonde without the long commitment. Ombre is also quite flattering and gives different dimensions to your hair without even trying. The best thing about it is that there are no restrictions. Though the aforementioned "blond ombre" is the most popular, we see loads of people sporting all kinds of colours of ombre, from blue to red to pink.

Red Ombre, which is really gorgeous for those with really dark hair. 

  

For those more daring, blue-green ombre has recently been very popular.

 
So yes, ombre is a trend, but it has been a good one at that. One that should stay a few more years so more of us can reap the benefit of this great style.
