By: Juliet Cohen

Modern hair coloring techniques add true dimension to style right down to the natural movement of your hair. In addition, hair coloring techniques include veiling and chunking. When coloring one's hair, it is always advisable to visit a professional hair colorist as there are many mistakes a person could make, as well as some serious consequences. Hair colouring products generally fall into four categories: temporary, semipermanent, deposit only/demi, and permanent. All these hair color products, except for temporary color, require a patch test before application to determine if the client is allergic to the product. Temporary hair color is available in various product forms including rinses, shampoos, gels, sprays, and others. This type of hair color is typically used to give brighter, more vibrant shades or colors such as orange or red, that may be difficult to achieve with semi-permanent and permanent hair color.

Types of Hair Coloring Techniques:

1. Highlights.

2. Twilighting.

3. Lowlights.

4. Veiling.

5. Chunking.
