This is a detailed explanation of how to ombre your hair yourself. Yes, I know it's a lot of talking, but I thought all of the talking was necessary in order to thoroughly explain the technique. I don't want anyone to mess up because people think I talk too much :).

I hope this video is helpful!

all the links I said I'd list:

this website actually has a slide show of different ombre techniques! yay:

the color level system (very important!):

I know ombre hair looks really pretty on wavy hair but I have straight hair and I get very lazy curling it or waving it, will it look like it goes straight from one color to another or will it end up looking like yours, I love your hair!!!

@SplashOfBeautyx3 thank you :). and i agree, i think it tends to look better on wavy hair, but i think that, if done properly, it can look really pretty on straight hair as well.

what bleach did you specifically??

[jaimiemet]

@jesserette11 i use wella, but that can usually only be purchased from stores like cosmo prof, which require you to have a cosmetology license to shop there.

What bleach did you use, and where did you get it?

@anamaria0907 thank you! and you could totally do it on auburn hair, just follow the level rule for the proper gradient.
