Smokestack hair is a coloring technique that "layers panels of color beginning at the nape of the neck to your hair line from darkest to lightest." The idea was created by Vadre Grigsby, and it's about to hit it big. According to [Cosmopolitan](https://www.cosmopolitan.com/style-beauty/beauty/how-to/a47460/smokestack-hair/), here's how you create the look:

## 1. Apply Royal Purple to a 2-Inch Section of Your Hair
