Hair Colorist Creates Looks Inspired by Nature and We’re Obsessed

These days, it appears there are no restrictions regarding what should be possible with hair. It appears to be each shading and tone is accessible for our pleasure, with non-regular shades like lilac, silver, or pastel pink all having had late minutes.

In any case, the most recent hair pattern we’ve spotted on Instagram? All things considered, they’re something different. Talented hair colorist, Ursula Goff, takes her motivation from the most excellent shading palettes in nature. What’s more, the outcomes? Indeed, they’re just staggering.

2. Sunflowers

More from my project with @matrix! They are releasing some new Demi's called Vinyls in the fall, and I've been playing around with them. The top of this color is the Copper with just a smidge of the Gilded Gold, and then I added a bit of Red into the root area. On her natural hair, it's more coppery auburn, but on the blonde extensions she's wearing from @vpfashion, it was a brighter orange. Then I blended some of the Color Graphics lacquer in yellow into the middle for the sunburst effect.

My brother pointed out my haircolor's resemblance to the Horsehead Nebula's palette today, and I gotta say – I think he's right #space #nebula #horseheadnebula #neildegrassetyson #starnursery #pinkhair #spacehair #starformation

Airacha was auburn, warm brown, and blonde when she came in (swipe left to see). We had made her normal colors in anticipation of her entrance into nursing school. However, she didn't get in – on a paperwork technicality >:( The upside is that she has till August before she applies again soooooo she said I could do whatever, so I decided to make her look like the night sky. I just applied Cobalt blue all over and voila- she's multitonal blue now.

7. The Hubble Telescope

View this post on Instagram

Airacha always gives me the opportunity to do something unique, and it's often color combos or arrangements I wouldn't normally think to do until she gives me her parameters. It often challenges me to figure out how to make it work, but it also allows me to get outside my comfort zone and try something new. #nebula #pillarsofcreation #space #nebulahair #hubbletelescope #space #behindthechair #modernsalon #americansalon

Hot springs…This was another super experimental collaboration with my artist client Sadie @queenofcolorartist. And once again, we ended up so crazy ecstatic with it. My eyeballs are SO happy when I look at these colors together.

12. Rose Petals

My daughter's fadeout and regrowth (about 6-7 week old color) reminded me of this really gorgeous rose at my in-laws' house. I didn't lift her to do the color, I just applied a deep, bright fuschia right on top of her natural color. #pinkhair #rose #rosegoldhair #embracethefade #behindthechair #modernsalon #americansalon

14. Pastel petals

View this post on Instagram

Sooooo @schwarzkopfusa asked me to try some of their blonding stuff out, so I did today on Jodie @adventuresofarunner, a local herpetologist who works at the zoo and loves turtles and is a marathon runner – so if you need running tips, go give her a follow! She had very grown out balayage, so I touched her up with Blondme lightener and 25 volume, and then used a mixture of the apricot and strawberry toners with 15 volume for a peachy, rose gold strawberry blonde. It's a gorgeous soft color! #stronglyblonded #schwarzkopfusa #freestuff #blondehair #blorangehair #peachhair #rosegoldhair #balayage #beautylaunchpad

15. Crystals

View this post on Instagram

Crystallized color!!! I feel pretty good about this color today. I was inspired by how color lays on crystals and changes tone and directionality on each side. So I played around with a new technique where I applied color both horizontally and vertically in panels on my gorgeous model Rachel @puglieserachel. I did this using @matrix’s new vivids line, Socolor Cult, to be released in June 2018. Gotta say, I’m a fan…and I loved the work everyone else did with them, too! #matrix #socolorcult #crystalcolor #naturecolor #naturehair #rainbowhair #texturewithcolor #iridescenthair #prismhair #opalhair #holographichair #behindthechair #beautylaunchpad #americansalon #modernsalon

16. Black opals

View this post on Instagram

I've been looking for an excuse to do this particular color combo ever since I found that photo of a black opal almost a year ago. My Kandinsky hair piece provided a great opportunity after we colored Katie's hair Cobalt! It also inspired the fiery roots mixed with indigo hair I did on myself earlier this summer. #blackopal #kandinsky #bluehair #geology #geologyhair #naturehair #modernsalon #beautylaunchpad #behindthechair #americansalon

So remember this bird I saw at the zoo? A golden pheasant? Well I finally got to use the color inspo on someone!

20. Georgia O’Keefe

View this post on Instagram

I love Georgia O'Keefe's poppy paintings, so I decided to do one myself, first on paper with watercolor (left), then on hair (right). This is part of my project to help @matrix promote their new ColorSync Vinyls line of Demi's, which should become available this fall! I used copper and red for the petals and cobalt, midnight violet and copper for its dark center, painted onto a blonde extension and then clipped into the hair. My client's hair was also colored with the Vinyls; we do her regrowth (ashy level 6) with the red and then after processing added a layer of the red Color Graphics lacquer to the top third to bump the intensity. We let that bleed down into the mids a bit and then did some balayage on her ends with Matrix Lightmaster, which turned a fabulous bright coral! Loved how this came out! #matrixbrandpartner #matrix #colorsyncvinyls #autumnhair #redhair #paintingsonhair #hairpaintings #georgiaokeeffe #americanart #finearthair #beautylaunchpad #BehindTheChair #modernsalon #americansalon #fckinghair
