Holographic hair is trending and it's booming on Instagram!

Do you know that color effect when you put the back of a CD or DVD in the sun? That mix of pink, blue, green, purple, all together and impossible to separate?

So, is this effect now a fad in hair coloring and making it successful on Instagram? and the streets too!

The trend is called holographic hair and it has everything to do with unicorn fashion that has taken over the looks and makes of fashionistas.


To produce the effect, colorists need to start from light blonde hair. So be aware that you will most likely need to discolor your wires a lot if you want to follow the wave.

Only after the hair is very clear are the blue, pink, green and lilac shades applied to the strands.
