Ombré hair colour is a great style option if you're wanting something new but essentially low maintenance - a two-tone look with your roots staying natural but the ends taking on a new colour. In French ombré means “shade” or “shadow," and while it's pronounced like 'ohm-bruh' in France, we've only heard it as 'ohm-bray' among our very classy (but not French) friend group, if you're looking to get technical about it. Don't miss out on getting this dramatic colouring option added to your hair and book into a salon in Thornbury.
Essentially what we're going for is an easy, seamless wellness experience. We'd love to help you out, whether that's your next Haircut and Hairdressing appointment or our best spa recommendation.

Ombré is a style of colouring the hair that offers a darker to lighter effect. It is primarily done with a lighter colouring agent applied to the ends and worked upwards to blend into the darker top colour.
In France they would pronounce it "ohm-bruh," but here in Australia we tend to say "ohm-bray.
Getting ombré colour takes about 105 minutes on average.
If you're keen to mix things up a bit colour-wise without being locked into regular regrowth appointments, a bold ombré colour could be right up your street. Since the colour is just applied through the mid-lengths and ends of your hair, regrowth is a non-issue.
As with any colour, you'll want to wait 48 to 72 hours before shampooing. In general, if your hair has been lightened, you'll want to be very nice to it. Think hydrating masks, salon-recommended shampoo and conditioner, and regular bond-building treatments. Olaplex is your new best friend. Speak to your stylist for specific advice, though.
Ombré colour costs about $185 on average.
This is where ombré hair colours really shine - you may be able to go three to six months between appointments. Just keep an eye on your hair and make sure you get a trim when you need it.
