This should of course be done by a professional if possible to decrease likelihood of hair damage. Decide on the colors for your hair. This is a two-step process consisting of: 1 which colors you want your hair to be and 2 what hair sections you want as these colors.

Bright, edgy colors typically associated with scene hair include pink, blue, and purple. Start with temporary hair colors.

Straightening can fry your hair, making it weak and prone to breaking. Products such as hairspray and gel are similarly damaging to your hair, as well as the dyes commonly used for scene hairstyles.

You can use normal conditioner in the shower but it is also possible to purchase products like hair serums, which can be much more effective and are usually placed after washing but before drying much like gel.

How often this is required will vary for each person. You may need to condition every day, every other day, once a week, etc. You may need to experiment to find what is best for you. Maintain dyes. If you decided to dye your hair as well, you will want to be sure that you use the correct shampoos for dyed hair and that you re-color your hair as necessary. How often this needs to be done will vary by person, similar to conditioning of the hair.

If your hair is similar in color to how it was dyed, then you may need to touch up the color less often than if there is a noticeable color difference. Add in extensions. Colorful extensions can be purchased and placed to give your a hair a multicolored look.

These can be woven into your hair or function like clips, hidden by the layering.

Woven extensions are usually placed by a hair stylist and cost more money. They are also more of a long-term commitment.

Clip on extensions, however, are cheaper and can be switched out whenever you want. Popular colors for the highlights and extensions include pink, green, blue, and bleach blonde. Sculpt with gels and sprays. These can be used to give your hair volume and shape.
