Summer Locks

By Joy Sherwood Posted on July 23, 2010

Visible roots have always been a fashion faux pas, but not this season. Ombre is the latest trend in hair color, seen on celebs like Rachel Bilson, and it’s perfect for the no-fuss summer months. Meaning gradation in French, it gives your hair a dip-dye effect with long dark roots and lightened tips. It’s super low maintenence (no more constant root touch-ups!) which means you can spend more time at the pool this summer and less time in the salon chair. The lightening of your tips will leave your hair a little fragile though so load up on some restorative products and use a leave-in conditioner once a week. Visit Mizu Salon at 505 Park Avenue for the new do. http://mizuforhair.com
