So how do you like the Japanese popular hairstyles?
By the way do you know why all the popular hairstyles are colored with ash or greige?
Ash is actually made of blue dye. And blue cancels the opposite color which is orange. Asian hair tends to turn red / orange-ish when lightened. However orange/red colors don’t look pretty on our skin. We like to look like westerners with their naturally cool brown hair. That’s why ash hair color is so popular!
Same with greige: greige color is made of grey = ash, and beige. Greige color neutralizes our red/orange undertone.
So if you have also Asian like thick and coarse hair, and that you don’t like the orangish finish, try the ash hair color next time!!
