What Is Raccoon Tail?
RACCOON TAIL Raccoon Tail changes its expression depending on how the hair is sectioned and where the pattern is placed. If we want the lines to appear clearly, the design is created where the hair naturally falls. If we want to create a shifted effect, the hair can be overdirected at 45 degrees before the pattern is placed, so the lines appear intentionally displaced when the hair drops back into position. Color choice also changes the result. Red tones over pre-lightened hair often create the clearest contrast, because red can appear beautifully in both the lighter and darker sections. Blue-based colors require more control, as the transition area can easily turn green at the edge. Green tones, on the other hand, can work especially well by creating a natural shift from deep green to lighter green through the center. The final look is shaped by the placement, the pull angle, the spacing between each line, and the color selection. Because of this, Raccoon Tail is a design with many possibilities, capable of looking bold, subtle, graphic or unexpected depending on how each element is balanced.
What Is Raccoon Tail Hair Colour?
Raccoon tail is a sectioned colour design that creates striped or contrasting bands within selected panels of hair. The result depends on panel placement, the starting colour, the number of lightening processes and the chosen final tone.
