We’re not ashamed to say that we already miss summer. For as long as we can, we’re clinging to the sunnier days and our golden locks. This September, it’s golden hour every hour, so bring on the balayage.
This season, we anticipate finding gold and blonde flecks in every mane. Similarly, curly hair types are complemented well by a lightness that adds dimension without making a significant shift. While there are several ways to highlight curly hair, Pintura highlights are the way most stylists agree on as being the best. It’s ridiculous how well this low-maintenance, high-impact colouring technique complements curly hair textures. For a breakdown of the coolest colour trend for Fall, keep reading.
So, What Are Pintura Highlights?
The Pintura technique has been proven and tested for many years; it is not only current or trendy. This method, which Devacurl painstakingly developed, provides stylists with the greatest degree of freedom when creating custom hair colours for curly manes.
Pintura is a process that was developed more than 20 years ago to aid in strategically painting curls and producing a natural flash of colour. You can easily add colour to curls while generating lovely dimensions. Without folded foils, painting one curl per curl gives you more control over where each painted curl is placed.
This approach, as opposed to other highlighting techniques, is excellent for curly hair. Regular babylights or highlights are lovely and apparent, but because the portions picked are too thin in curly hair, they typically disappear. In order for the colour to be apparent after finishing and styling, take larger pieces of the hair, even the full curl.
Great News: Pintura Highlights Are Low Maintenance!
The fact that this colour procedure requires so little upkeep is wonderful news for curly heads. On curly hair, Pintura highlights naturally fade. So little colour maintenance is necessary. Hairstylists advise getting it done three to four times a year for someone who wants to maintain their colour and stay close to their natural roots while making sure to maintain healthy hair in between visits by getting regular haircuts and treatments.
4 Pintura Highlights You Can Take Inspo From
We’ve got you covered when it comes to taking inspo for your next hair colour appointment. These four stunning Pintura highlight colour moments are some of our favourites.
Red Pieces For You To See
No one needs to know your hair was flawlessly styled; it looks like it was just graced with reddish streaks at random. Some random crimson pieces that peek through the curls can dress up any brunette. For a more feminine look, add a side part or maybe some bangs.
A Touch Of Soft Brown
Sometimes a woman only needs a little bit of mystery. Any natural brunette can be made interesting by incorporating a small amount of soft brown colour. To soften the complexion, keep the pieces close to the face, as shown below.
Blue Pintura Highlights
Did we specify that Pintura highlights were exclusively appropriate for brunettes and blondes? No way! This process is an enjoyable way to add any colour you like. It helps to combine the colours so that they move with your curls, whether they are blue, red, or yellow.
Bronzed Brunette
Her hair is extensively highlighted in bronzy hues, with the front sections receiving the most attention. The eye-catching metallic colours will complement your dusky skin tone and brown eye colour beautifully. To die for is the brown colour combination with the heavy side section.
Opt for this shade and technique, and wow the world!
