Coloring:the leopard print invites itself into the hair

With gray designated as the most popular color at the start of 2017, the year promises to be under the sign of hair extravaganzas. And this has already been somewhat confirmed with Geode hair coloring, which gives the hair the look of precious stones, and Hidden Rainbow Roots. In a slightly more advanced register – because it is no longer only a question of colors but also of patterns – there is now the leopard trend, and it comes straight from across the Channel. It was Erik Pascarelli, color stylist at London salon Bleach London, who caught the eye on Instagram with this rather special style performed on a client with a shaved head. The result, quite impressive, is easier to obtain than you think:just bleach the hair, draw here and there irregular spots of "bronde" color and partially surround them with a coloring resulting from the mixture of brown and black.

Totally assumed or concealed

The professional specifies, however, that the coloring is more suitable for short haircuts, because the movements of the long hair undo the print. For those who are not ready to take the plunge but who are seduced by the fun side of the leopard style, Erik Pascarelli suggests using a stencil representing the spots of the feline and colored lacquer spray cans. For a theme party, it's actually a good way to stand out! And the sources of inspiration gathered under the hashtag #LeopardPrintHair are not lacking on social networks:some play it frankly assumed look with coloring all over the head, while others prefer to hide the coloring under several locks. Certainly, the result remains very special and will undoubtedly appeal to the most daring, but we are not against a little madness!
