Currently, there is simply an incredible amount of all kinds of techniques and types of highlighting. Usually under the highlighting means coloring individual strands in bright colors. However, there is the so-called black highlighting. He will be discussed in our today's article. In it we will talk about what is black highlighting in general and what are the types of black highlighting, and also tell you how to properly care for hair with black highlighting.
What is black highlighting?
Black highlighting involves dyeing several strands of hair in a darker (almost black shade). This kind of highlighting is best suited for girls with dark blond hair. If you want to refresh your image and at the same time not to spoil your hair, then black highlighting is ideal for you. Due to the fact that dyeing does not occur throughout the entire hair volume, the hair does not suffer. In addition, when the roots grow, it will be enough to paint over only the regrowth. This is undoubtedly a weighty argument in favor of black highlighting.
