The colorist's technique is brilliant.

Blondies of Melbourne, a hair salon in Australia, is no stranger to viral Instagram hair-color trends. After all, hidden rainbow roots and confetti hair are the brainchildren of its stylists. The latest creation they've shared with the world via Instagram is plaid hair and it's seriously impressive. "At Blondies Of Melbourne, we have a very colorful clientele who are very receptive to new ideas and always pushing us to try new techniques," salon owner Karen Lewis tells Allure. In this case, the stylists creatively used hair dye to transform someone's blonde hair into a pink-and-blue plaid pattern.

While going through a particularly experimental phase back in June 2017, the stylists started trying out more obscure looks, patterns, and line work. The idea of attempting plaid or tartan hair came up after a failed shopping trip. "What truly inspired this look was my hunt for the perfect tartan miniskirt," Lewis says. "I thought if I can't find it, I might as well just paint it on someone's head." I respect that.
