Mermaid’s hair is an elegant beauty trend perfect for girls who aspire to look like sea creatures. You can achieve this look in numerous ways- natural waves or heat-styling tools are both viable ways. This stunning style stands out for its use of color. Dark roots and ends are lightened before an ocean-inspired hue takes over, with turquoise being introduced as part of an eye-catching combination.
Half-Up
Girls not quite ready to embrace their mermaid tail can opt for a half-up style as an interim solution. This feminine pink look features a French braid from the nape of the neck to the crown, with loose, swept-back strands on top pinned adorably. Dark roots gradually give way to an eye-catching shade of pink that fades to purple and finally blue as it nears its ends. This beautiful pastel ombre reminds us of scales on the water! This hair color is the epitome of mermaid chic, and looks gorgeous when styled casually beachy. To achieve the look, apply heat-protecting product to damp hair before scrunching locks with sea spray or ocean water and finish off with shine product for the final touch.
Loose Waves
Justine Skye offers tips for creating loose beach waves using John Frieda Frizz Ease Serum products, Living Proof No Frizz Styling Spray, and Tresemme Hairspray – making a mermaid style without too much volume possible! While most mermaids prefer blue and green hues, you could also use jewel tones for your aquatic-inspired hair color. Be mindful, though; regular touch-ups with a professional may be required to maintain its vibrancy. Be bold with your beauty by going all-out with a mermaid hair color! This shell-inspired shade features dark roots, gradually transitioning into aqua and purple hues for an underwater effect.
Braided
If mermaid waves feel too casual, try something more intricate like this waterfall braid style. Inspired by mermaid waves but suitable for anyone, perfect for beach trips, festivals, and brunches with your friends! Mermaid’s hair doesn’t need to be blue, as this pink and turquoise ombre proves. Combining mermaid pink, purple, and turquoise shades for an oceanic feel – complete the effect by accessorizing with sea accessories! Opt for an icy light blue shade for a subtler take on this trend. This hue turns the oceanic blues traditionally associated with mermaid hairstyles on their heads for an eye-catching, calm, and chic style. Additionally, this hue works on all hair colors, so it’s an excellent option for anyone wanting to join the trend but is nature still determining if they will commit entirely to vibrant hues?
Sleek
If you want a sleek and polished look, try mermaid braids. This easy hairstyle is the perfect summer style that pairs beautifully with flowing dresses or cozy cardigans. Add flowers or other accents for added romance! Easy beachy waves are another effective way to achieve the look. Casual yet put-together, this style makes an attractive option for weddings or summer beach trips. Wear your gorgeous locks against an off-the-shoulder or mid-length dress for maximum impact!
Princess
Mermaid’s hair requires multiple colors to achieve its best effect, and this look demonstrates this perfectly with its multicolored palette of dark purple to faded deep aqua blue with seashell-inspired green highlights – creating a stunning blend that shimmers both during daylight hours and glows under darkness. Dip dye techniques offer an adequate but less obvious way of adding mermaid colors. Once pre-lightening your locks has taken place, your colorist can maintain your natural shade at the roots while painting over them with your chosen hues – for an eye-catching graphic finish compared to classic ombre. Pinks and other pastel hues make a striking mermaid hairstyle, like this pink and blue combination that embodies princess-esque qualities and music festival chicness.
