Short Black Ash Hairstyle With Blue Highlights


Added: 10 Nov 2010
This short straight black hairstyle is a great way to add dimension and style to your look. It features a short, textured finish that create an overall subtle look. This stylish hairstyle features with blue highlights added to the ends of the hair for an extra dimension. The length of the highlighted layers provides contrast, while the straightness at the roots gives this style the illusion of more length.

Our model has chosen to wear her hair short and straight with a black ash color. Blue highlights, along with a tattoo on her right arm, make this a fun look for our model who has a funky personality. For the hair styling, this bold 'do is perfect for the brave. The back layers are graduated into the neck to show off the loud splashes of color added for contrast. The top layers add height to the crown, blending in with the choppy bangs which complete the overall style brilliantly. The straight, sleek look of this black ash hairstyle with blue highlights is perfect for women with oval and oblong faces. The long layers add texture and dimension while showcasing the beautiful color. This is a medium-length straight style, and the natural shade is black with subtle blue highlights throughout the style. This look is suitable for all hair types, especially for those with fine to medium density and thick hair textures who want to keep their hair length in check.

This short black ash hairstyle is the perfect for any occasion. With blue highlights, this straight style makes you stand out in a crowd of similar-looking people. It's easy to maintain with regular trims after 4 to 6 weeks. Pinch the back section out with your wax and then mess the top sections to create this textured look.
