Instagram's new favourite hair trend: glitter roots

accreditation

You know when your roots start to show, but you don’t have the money for a touch up right away? Ombré used to be a great excuse, but now there's something even more festive...

...glitter roots!

Yes, that’s right. People are covering their roots in glitter and it's unexpectedly awesome.

The trend seems to be more popular amongst those with mermaid and boldly coloured hair. People are even making the cutest pigtails to show their roots more prominently and applying glitter.

The only question we have is: How on earth do you get all the glitter off afterwards? Glitter does have a tendency to stick around for days.

At least it doesn’t lose its sparkle!

Glitter roots looks incredible with brightly coloured hair, but works just as well with naturally coloured hair too.
