Oil Slick Hair is the dark version of the Mermaid Hairstyle that became very popular at the beginning of 2015. This particular dye job caters to those with darker tresses that don't want to undergo bleaching to achieve a colorful hairdo. Designed to look like an oil slick, this hairstyle features a brunette base which is decorated with blue, green, bright purple and yellow highlights.
