Pre-Lightening

• Ensure that your hair has not been cleansed in 2-3 days. The lipids in your hair will assist with the lightening procedure.

How To Take Care Of Mermaid Hair

• Avoid Overstyling: Minimize the use of heat-styling instruments to prevent fracturing.

• Use UV Protection: Apply a UV-protectant spray or wear a cap when you are in the sun to protect your hair from color-fading.

• Get Color Touch-Ups: Go for a color touch-up to maintain vibrancy every 3-4 weeks or as required.

1. Gray Mermaid

The gray hair trend is never going to fade, and in conjunction with mermaid colors, this style is absolute elegance. The heavy black roots have been masterfully merged out to a beautiful azure which then seamlessly transitions to a gorgeous gray.

If this is what genuine mermaids look like, give us a pair of binoculars and leave us stranded at the beach.

Could the moniker for this design be apter? With colors that were chosen from the depths of the ocean, this hairstyle is one of the finest mermaid styles that we’ve come across.

Talking about delicate seafoam hair and creating dimension, this style has mastered the concept. With a vibrant green at the roots that diffuse out at the ends, this hair color appears phenomenal. The greatest part is that you won’t have to lighten your hair too much to accomplish this appearance. The natural yellow tones lend dimension and appear stunning when weaved into the green.
