#1: Light Prismatic Long Hair
Go for a light prismatic color for a striking look on long hair. This color blends soft pastel tones on a bleach blonde base. The color technique forms a prismatic effect, as it makes the light reflect off the hair. Try to wash your hair less often to avoid color loss. It would be best if you also used cold water, as hot water can strip out the color.

#3: Pastel Babylights on Short-Blonde Hair
Pastel babylights on short blonde hair are the perfect way to spice up platinum blonde. Platinum blonde is the best canvas for pastel colors. When the hair is almost void of color, with no yellow tones, pastel colors are at their brightest. Applying light blue to hair with yellow tones will give a greenish hue because yellow and blue combine to make green. Similarly, if you add baby pink to yellow-toned hair, the result will likely be a peach or orange shade. Therefore, the lighter the hair color, the better the results. Moreover, applying the bubble technique adds depth to the hair color, offering a holographic vibe.

Always wash your vivids in cold water with a sulfate-free shampoo so they don’t run together or fade.

Achieving the Perfect Holo Hair
The first thing, says Duckworth, is to lighten your hair to a platinum blonde. This may take a while, it all depends on your natural hair color and texture. The key is patience. Once the hair is light, you then apply the vivid colors.
What about the major skin tones? Duckworth suggests if you lean towards a peach or olive tone, warmer colors will suit you better. Cooler tones, on the other hand, look nicer on pink or blue complexions.
Preserving the Rainbow
Maintaining this hairstyle isn’t a task to take lightly. A color-safe shampoo comes to the rescue. Ideally, it should be sulfate and sodium-free, Duckworth advises. Products like Olaplex or K18 can keep your hair healthy. Hold back from chlorine, salt water, and hot water. Your shiny hair will thank you for it.
Prepping with Your Stylist
Discussion is key. The kind of lifestyle you lead, and the frequency of your salon visits, are all important factors. “If you’re low maintenance and expect salon visits 3-4 times a year, highlights are your best bet,” Duckworth points out. If frequent salon visits don’t faze you, a solid bleach and tone might be what you need.
Bear in mind your current hair condition may affect the final color. If you have a dark color or overprocessed hair, your stylist may suggest opting for a vivid tone over a pastel one. With the right advice and care, holographic hair can be within your reach. So go ahead, take the leap, and let your hair reveal its true colors! Or, check out our hair color ideas.
