A fun, high-contrast money piece look on a dark shoulder-length lob. I love pairing deep brunette hair with bright pop accents like this pastel pink because it instantly gives cool-girl edge without having to bleach your whole head. It’s super playful and frames the face in the best way possible.

I think the high-contrast split dye look is one of the coolest ways to make a classic chin-length bob stand out! Pairing a stark jet black with an icy platinum blonde creates an instant dramatic statement, while the wavy texture and choppy baby bangs keep it feeling effortless and modern. You can wear this sleek and straight for a graphic edge or toss in some loose bends for an undone, lived-in feel.
How to do this
1. Start by parting the hair precisely down the center from the hairline all the way to the nape of the neck using a tail comb.
2. For the split-dye effect, isolate the left side and lighten it to a clean level 10 pale yellow using a dedicated hair lightening powder bleach kit listed below, then apply an icy cool toner to achieve the bright silver-white finish.
3. On the opposite side, apply a rich jet black semi-permanent or permanent color using the dark hair dye listed below, making sure to keep the center line completely clean to avoid bleeding.
4. Cut the length into a blunt chin-length bob, adding subtle texture through the ends, and snip a straight, piecey micro fringe across the brow line.
5. Prep the hair with the heat protectant spray listed below before styling with a flat iron or small curling wand to create subtle, undone 2A bends throughout the lengths.
6. Smooth the micro bangs straight down with a mini styling iron, and finish off by misting the dry texturizing spray listed below through the waves to create effortless separation and body.
