dancing flame hair color

From galaxy hair to oil slick hair, people have been using beautiful pictures to inspire hair colors all over Pinterest. One of the latest ideas is fire hair, which of course, is inspired by photos of fire. The most common hair colors are bright reds, flaming oranges and hot yellows. Some looks even combine other flame colors, like blue.

If you want the fire hair look and have naturally dark hair, bleach your hair to the lightest blonde possible and then apply statement colors like Manic Panic or Arctic Fox. There’s a ton of color melting going on with this look, so you may want to head to a salon if you’re at all concerned that you’ll mess it up.

Below are several ways to wear this look, ranging from the boldest neon looks to the most subtle flame tips. This girl is on fire!

Some fire hair images you’ll see online incorporates tones of blue, pink and purple, in addition to the reds and oranges you normally see. For instance, this flame-inspired fire hair starts with a purple base, leads into hot pink and yellow layers and then ends in purple or blue ends.

A more muted look incorporates bright oranges and yellows in the lengths of the hair. This fire hair is really cool (see what I did there?) with very dark hair at the top, as it looks like the flames are leaping out of nowhere. It’s a great look for wearing in a ponytail, as it makes it look like there’s just flame in the back of the head.

Like the look above, this flame color melt starts with a bright red, transitioning into an orange and ending in yellow tips. What makes it distinctive is that the red starts a little further down leaving generous dark roots so it looks like the flame leaps out of nowhere.
