3. Join the two side braids together at the center of the back of your head using a small clear elastic hair tie listed below.
4. Gather the tail from the joined side braids, combine it with a mid-section of loose hair from the crown to give thickness, and braid down into a central three-strand plait all the way to the ends.
5. Secure the end of the long center braid with another clear elastic hair tie.
6. Gently pancake both the crown braids and the central long braid by lightly tugging on the outer loops to create a fuller, romantic bohemian shape.

If you've been itching to add a punch of fun to your bleached hair without committing your whole head, this is your sign! That contrast between crisp, icy platinum and hot neon pink is pure magic, especially paired with effortless, tousled waves that give it that cool-girl festival edge.
How to do this

2. Section off the lower half to third of the hair lengths where you want the vivid color to begin.
3. Apply semi-permanent hot pink dye using the vibrant semi-permanent pink hair dye listed below, feathering the brush upward into the platinum base to create a soft, melted transition rather than a blunt line.
4. Allow the color to process according to instructions, then rinse with cool water to avoid bleeding into the icy platinum top.
5. Once dry, mist with the texturizing wave spray listed below and wrap alternating sections around a 1.25-inch curling iron, leaving the ends slightly straight for a relaxed, modern bend.
6. Break up the waves with your fingers and finish with the flexible hold hairspray listed below to lock in body and movement.

Can we talk about how mesmerizing this neon color melt is?! I had to include this striking platinum-to-hot-pink look because it gives off total futuristic, cyberpunk princess energy, don't you think?!
