Ombre Straight Hair

With straight hair it’s important to show the smooth fade or transition of color. You may introduce ombre highlights or decide on the fade that starts at the mid-length level. The second option looks good on long hair. Ombre highlights will work even for the length of a shoulder length bob.

#1: Straight Beauty

Highlights make long hair look longer, which is even further accentuated by straight strands. Using a high quality flat iron, choose a dramatically straight look when you’re hoping for a beautiful change.

#2: Bright and Bold Black To Red Ombre

Since straight hair showcases color so well, why to stick only to natural hues? A bright fire engine red, an electric blue or a cool purple can really make hair pop.

#4: Going Dark With Light Brown To Black Ombre

Another standard trait of ombre hair is dark on top cascading down into a lighter hue. Mix things up by trying out a reverse ombre. It’s creative while still remaining gorgeous.

#5: Shoulder Length Hair With Ombre Highlights

Hair doesn’t need to be super long to look good with an ombre style. Shoulder length hair is just as beautiful, and if your hair is of medium thickness, it will look even better. Best of all, it will take less time to flat iron your hair in the morning if you weren’t blessed with natural straightness.
