  • Watercolor Brushes: Synthetic or natural, choose brushes with varying sizes and shapes to create diverse strokes and effects.
  • Watercolor Paints: Tube or pan paints are both excellent choices. Consider a set with a wide range of hues for versatility.

Once you've gathered your materials, it's time to explore various watercolor techniques to enhance your hair designs:

  1. Wet-on-Wet: Apply color to wet paper, creating a natural blend and soft transitions.
