1: What is Vivid Color Placement?

Vivid Color Placement Techniques are a clever way of adding colors to different parts of your hair. These techniques cover a variety of styles like sectioning, partial coloring, peekaboo, highlights, lowlights, and other methods where color is carefully put in certain areas of your hair. It's not just about changing hair colors; it's a creative way to show your personality while keeping a sense of style and grace. The outcome is a stunning mix of shades that light up with every move, making your everyday moments a bit more enchanting.

2: The Benefits

Beyond the sheer artistry, these techniques offer an array of benefits.

1: Uniqueness

Vivid Color Placement offers a fantastic way to showcase your individuality. By strategically adding vibrant colors to specific sections of your hair, you're creating a look that is uniquely yours. This personalized touch sets you apart from the crowd and allows you to express your personality in a fresh and exciting way. It's like wearing a beautiful accessory that's custom-made just for you. Vivid Color Placement lets you stand out while staying true to your authentic self.

2: Subtle Boldness

Are you drawn to vivid colors but prefer a more understated appearance? Vivid Color Placement is the answer. It's a clever technique that lets you enjoy the brilliance of bold shades without going all-in. By placing the colors strategically, you achieve a captivating effect that's noticeable yet not overpowering. This means you can have fun experimenting with vibrant blues, purples, or greens while maintaining an elegant and sophisticated overall look. It's the perfect balance of boldness and subtlety.

3: Versatility

One of the most exciting aspects of Vivid Color Placement is the versatility it offers. Depending on how you style your hair, you can unveil different facets of your vibrant colors. Updos, braids, and various styling techniques can showcase or hide the colored sections, giving you multiple looks with just one hair color choice. This adaptability means you can effortlessly switch between a vibrant and playful appearance and a more classic and refined style, all by changing how you wear your hair.

4: Seamless Root Coverage

Maintaining your stunning hair color becomes a breeze with Vivid Color Placement. Since the color is strategically applied to specific sections, you won't have to worry as much about noticeable root regrowth. This means your hair maintains its polished appearance for longer periods, reducing the need for frequent touch-ups. It's a practical advantage that allows you to enjoy your vibrant colors with less hassle.

5: Minimized Damage

Unlike full-head color applications, Vivid Color Placement targets specific areas, resulting in reduced hair damage. By limiting the coloring process to certain sections, you're minimizing the overall exposure of your hair to chemicals. This gentle approach helps maintain the health and integrity of your locks while still allowing you to enjoy the thrill of vivid colors.

3: Exploring Methods & Creative Hairstyles

Now, let’s explore 4 coloring techniques - partial coloring, peekaboo, sectioning, and highlights. A variety of hairstyles you see in below were all created by Three Degrees Salon's stylists!

Partials: Embracing Dimension

Partial color techniques offer a three-dimensional elegance, by strategically adding color to specific sections of your hair. This approach enhances your haircut, accentuates layers, and creates a captivating contrast that captures attention effortlessly.



Peekaboo: Subtle Surprises 

For those seeking a touch of whimsy and surprise, the Peekaboo technique is ideal. With hidden pops of vibrant color beneath the top layer of hair, you enjoy a subtle yet captivating transformation that dances into view with every movement.



Sectioning: Crafting Bold Divisions 

Sectioning lets you embrace a daring and avant-garde look by dividing your hair into distinct segments, each adorned with its unique hue. This technique makes a bold fashion statement and adds depth and dimension to your hair, transforming it into one and only style.



The below 6 styles are examples of advanced creative styles for multi-sectioning. They require full-head color treatments involving bleaching so some of the benefits that were mentioned in the previous chapter may not apply. But they are a true work of art! If you want to explore these design coloring styles with multiple colors divided by sections, you definitely want to find the right stylists to do and consult with them beforehand.



Highlights/Lowlights

Last but not least, highlights and lowlights bring classic techniques to life with a modern twist. Adding vivid colors to these methods introduces movement and depth to your hair, ensuring you stand out from the crowd with every turn.
Using the highlighting technique is also an excellent approach to seamlessly blend grey hair into your overall look. The below 2 styles are examples - We created a natural and multi-dimensional appearance that beautifully incorporates grey hair.
