[post_ads]Fact: If it's popular on Instagram, either a marble texture or
unicorn color scheme is involved. It's only natural that the internet
should proceed to freak out over this Insta-famous hair technique
created by hair colorist Ash Fortis, which combines both. It's almost
like Lisa Frank redesigned your marble-printed Lumee phone case.
The process itself involves bleaching out your color to a pale blonde, as most day-glo hair trends
do, but the marbled finish itself involves an unconventional—and
super-mesmerizing—application technique, which she documents in the
Instagram video below.

Fortis applies a layer of shaving cream to a foam mesh strip, then applies drops of Pulp Riot hair color
over the top. With a brush, she'll mix and swirl the colors until a
marble-esque pattern is created, then applies each of the strips
directly to the hair, just as you would with foils.

The pro certainly
puts the term "creative" in creative color—aside from the marble finish
above, she's translated crystals like moonstone into hair color form,
regularly paints with all the colors of the wind, and even did an effect
she coined "hologram hair" for a few of her Coachella-bound clients.
