Money Piece Highlights Are the Hair Trend Everyone's Trying Right Now

Hoping to spice up your hair this season? Allow us to introduce you to so-called money piece hair highlights, a.k.a. the face-framing hair color technique that's more popular than ever among celebrities and influencers alike. It's a great option if you want to help define your facial features by framing your face with an alternative hue. This trending look is achieved by balayaging the front few strands of your hair with a different color than the rest of your strands. If you want to go bold, you can opt for a chunky money piece in a shade of blue, pink or red. A lot of celebs and trendsetters have also opted for subtler money piece highlights that are either a few shades darker or lighter than the rest of their hair.

Money piece highlights look phenomenal on any hairstyle or cut. From bobs to braids, having a stark, stand-alone shade framing your face is guaranteed to look glamorous and priceless — hence the name itself. Need evidence? Celebs like Beyoncé, Jennifer Lawrence and Khloe Kardashian have all sported this stunning look.

But don't be fooled by the name (or the stars sporting it), because this hair color is totally affordable and achievable — it just makes your hair look expensive. Just remember, after dying your hair, you'll want to use a color-safe shampoo and conditioner to maintain your new look, because the last thing you want is for your money piece to fade quickly. Ready to look like a million bucks? These are the best money piece hair highlight ideas to inspire your next color change!
