Split coloring—a funny two-tone hairstyle with contrast—will appeal to those girls who are not afraid of changes and want to try two colors on their locks at once. You can take not only standard colors as a basis but also dilute them with bright shades.
You can change or emphasize your appearance with just one coloring. At least, stylists are sure of it. But for the coloring to be individual, you need to pay attention to trends. As a rule, girls are used to changing their color by coloring in one tone and choosing their shade. But many are very wary of radical changes, although bold ladies are ready for unusual experiments with their hair.
Popular types of coloring, shatush and balayage, have faded into the background because they have been pushed aside in the new season by a new trend—split coloring.
What is interesting about split coloring?
If you translate the word “split” from English, you will get something else as “bifurcation.”. This means that the coloring will occur clearly on two sides in different colors. A funny two-color hairstyle with contrast will appeal to those girls who are not afraid of change and want to try on two colors at once on their curls. You can take not only standard colors as a basis but also dilute them with bright shades.
And it is not necessary to pay attention to disapproving glances, because the main goal of a girl who agreed to such coloring is to simultaneously become a brown-haired and red-haired or a blonde and a brunette. Although such an experiment is quite possible to practice for a youth party or a corporate holiday. But if you risk showing up to work like this, then you are a brave person, and be prepared for different opinions.

Split-coloring technique
- Comb your hair and divide it evenly into two parts. Tie one side with an elastic band to prevent the dye from transferring to it. It is also recommended to use special hair clips instead of an elastic band.
- Using brushes, you need to apply the ready-made dye to the root part of the hair. The dyeing should move from the roots to the very tips. This is the technique of uniform dyeing.
- Each side is painted in different colors according to the rules. Then both sides should be tied with an elastic band or clamped.
- The dyeing time must be strictly observed according to the dye instructions.
- After the time has elapsed, each side of the hair should be thoroughly washed with clean water and then with shampoo.
- The final touch to the procedure is applying conditioner to the hair and rinsing it off.
To ensure that the shade on your hair retains its natural color longer, do not dry your hair with a hair dryer.
Split coloring is a new word in modeling your hair, so only its owner can declare a fashion trend to the whole world.
