2016 has proven itself to be the year of color. We’ve recently seen the introduction of the oil slick hair, rainbow hair, glow-in-the-dark hair, and now: underlights!

So, what is an underlight?

It is created when a section of hair is secured into a bun or top knot and then working colorful magic on the bottom. Essentially when you hair is completely down, the colors aren’t as apparent. Think: hidden rainbow hair.

The #Underlights hashtag has become widely popular among Instagram users with over 5,000 pictures. Theres no denying why so many people are trying this; the pictures look awesome and no two are the same.

Check out the before and afters from Stylist Ruby Devine:
