In a world where you can be anything, why be boring? One of the best ways to stand out among the crowd is to go for a drastic hair transformation. And nowadays, there’s so much to choose from in terms of cut, color, length, and even texture. It's not unusual to see men and women walking around with bright pink, blue, or even rainbow hair. Gone are the days when a cut needed to be symmetrical and perfect. Or your eyebrows had to match your locks. Not that either of those are bad things...
People have been sharing how they decided to go big or go home, with a series of before-and-after hair makeover pics. Some chopped off their long hair, others decided to grow it. The really brave got rid of their color and opted for a head of shocking pink, violet, or even a mix of electric blue and purple. Whatever they did at the salon, these netizens aren't afraid to flaunt their beauty.
Bored Panda has put together the best hair transformations that scream "Brand New Me!" We've also spoken to master stylist and founder of At Stylar, Ronel van Vollenhoven, about the highs and lows of dyeing your hair an unusual color.
The expert says the colorist may use a color remover, followed by a color correction process, to get your hair to another shade. "You might need to tone or fill the hair before going back to your natural shade to avoid it looking dull or uneven," reveals the expert.
She says it’s a process. "Don’t expect it to happen in one session if you want to maintain hair health," van Vollenhoven warns. But again, she believes you should embrace the process. And if bright green, pink, or rainbow hair is what you want, then go for it—if even for just a little while!
