Sombre Tutorial with Kelly Saks


Hotheads Extensions are well-known for creating length and volume, but one of the greatest services you can provide to your salon guest is chemical-free color. Hotheads Extensions are available in 42 natural shades, including 6 gorgeous Ombré colors! 

With options like these, it’s easy to custom create a trendy color melt to match your guest’s changing needs. 
Hotheads Stylist Aurezu custom creates a Sombré (or subtle Ombré) for Fashion Blogger client Kelly Saks (@kellysaks) using Colors No. 6, 7 & 8. This blend of toffee, honey & ash blonde is PERFECT for a Fall Ombré.

       The Tools:
            • Hotheads Extensions:
                1 Pack No. 6 in 18”-20”
                1 Pack No. 7 in 18”-20”
                1 Pack No. 8 in 18”-20”
            • Bobby Pins
            • Claw Clips
            • Comb
            • Hair Ties
            • Shears
            • Styling Rattail Brush



The Application:
Begin the application by following the Hotheads Sectioning Method. We recommend flat ironing your guests hair to create precise sections.

To achieve this Sombré effect, select the lightest color extension you are working with (for our model it was color no. 8). This color should be coupled together for the first row.  

Move to the 2nd row. Using the brick-lay method, place the lightest color extension on the bottom, and top it off with the darkest color extension you are working with. For example, we used color 8 on the bottom and 6 on top.

At the third row switch the top color extension to your mid tone, we placed color 7 on top of color 8 to soften the contrast. Continue this color combination until you reach the row above the ears ( this is typically the 4th or 5th row)

For the row above the ears, couple the lightest color together to brighten up the face. We used 8 on top and bottom for this row. 

For the final row use your midtone placed on top of the lightest color. We use color 7 on top of color 8. Keep in mind, this is a custom color service for our guest Kelly Saks. 

Use this tutorial as a reference, but select colors based upon your clients natural hair and their desired look.

  2. This is probably one of the cutest subtle hair highlights I've seen ever! I want to change my hair style very slightly like this beautiful girl's hair. How would you incorporate hair extensions with these highlights? These techniques are really easy to follow too. Hopefully my hair looks as good as hers!
