The Ombre technique is widely used not just in hairstyling, but across a variety of other industries as well – for instance, it is used in painting, nail art, fashion and even in cooking or graphic design. The first one who actually got the Ombre hair color was Gisele Bundchen back in 2007, and the style has become extremely popular soon after that.

Some of the most renowned celebrities that went Ombre all the way were Nicole Kidman, Lauren Conrad, Katy Perry, Victoria Beckham and even Beyonce.

The reason why the Ombre style is still on trend eight years after it was popularized for the first time is because it requires very little upkeep and there are tens of different shades and techniques that can be used in order to achieve that exquisite fading effect of the natural color.

Have you noticed that some people end up with a very “harsh” ombre, and there is no smooth effect between the darker shade and the lighter shade? That does not look good, and instead of complimenting your overall attire and face, it actually has the opposite effect.  Check out The Ultimate Roundup Of Ombre Hair Color Inspiration:
