Dip dye (also known as "tip dyeing") is a hair coloring style that involves dipping the ends of the hair into either a naturally colored dye or a bright colored dye - which is generally a more popular choice. It is a hair coloring method that has become increasingly popular as a result of social media and its usage by celebrities.[1][2] Dip dye originates from the process of tie dyeing clothing (especially T-shirts). Dip-dyeing and the ombre hairstyle are similar, however, dip dyeing usually involves brighter neon colors than an ombre style, which is typically a more blended and natural coloration.[3][4] Another similar hair coloring technique that is confusing is balayage because it is so similar to ombre, but looks like "growing-out" highlights.[4]
