If there’s any hair colour trend that has defined the last couple of years, it’s the “money piece.” This popular hair colour is achieved by adding a distinctive colour – whether it be bright highlights or any shade of the rainbow – to front sections of hair on both sides of your face. The money piece is one of our most requested hair colours from clients, so much so that we’ve even added it as its own service to our price list for $55+. Thinking about trying a money piece this summer? Here are some of the reasons why our stylists can’t get enough of this hair colour.
It Frames Your Beautiful Face
Because the colour used to create a money piece is specifically applied to the hair surrounding your face, it immediately draws people’s attention to your beautiful facial features. By using colours, hues, or undertones that best compliment your complexion, this look is incredibly flattering and will help your confidence soar this summer.
Grow Out is Easy to Manage
Our stylists will apply the colour at a slight angle with the highest point starting at the very front of your head. This v-shape will help your roots look less blunt as your hair grows out and you’ll need less frequent visits to the salon. If you find you want to touch up your money piece, you can easily do so without also needing to colour your whole head.
You Have Endless Colour Options
To create this iconic look, the colour used in the front needs to be different from the rest of your head. Other than that, you can choose virtually any colour or shade for your money piece. Gorgeous money pieces can be achieved with highlights, pastels, vibrant colours, and even darker shades. The overall size of the money piece can also vary from large and dramatic to small and subtle depending on your personal style and preference.
It’s a Helpful Transition Colour
Are you a brunette looking to finally take the plunge to blonde or vice versa? If you’re not ready to commit to a full head colour change, a money piece is a less dramatic option for slowly transitioning your hair colour over time. You can also pair a money piece with a classic or reverse balayage for an even more natural hair colour progression.
