Shades of Blonde

1. Ash Blonde

This is a light, cool-toned shade of blonde with a silvery or grayish tint. This shade, often called granny hair, has been popular in the past few years. It is often featured on social media platforms such as Instagram and Twitter. Some tend to go full ash-blonde, while others keep it simple with balayage or ombre highlights. Either way, it is safe to say that this shade is truly stylish, especially for millennials.

The gray tint fades faster, that’s why ash blonde hair can be categorized as a high-maintenance hairstyle. If you choose to have this shade, you might need to go back to the hair salon to retouch it or buy toners, silver and purple shampoos to lessen the fading.

2. Dirty Blonde

Nope, dirty blonde has nothing to do with the hair’s tidiness. This one is a darker shade of blonde. People often describe it as a shade that is too dark to be blonde yet too light to be brunette, so it settles between the two. This one is a bit edgier than the rest and is much easier to maintain.

3. Golden Blonde

Golden blond hair has warm tones with a bit of brassiness. This is the most common type of blonde we see every day. Some people are gifted to have this shade as their natural hair color; no bleaching is needed; it is healthy and beautiful indeed.

To those people with dark hair, achieving a golden blonde shade needs a lot of effort and maintenance. Hair should be kept nourish to prevent dryness, split ends and breakage due to bleaching.

4. Platinum Blonde

Platinum blonde is the lightest among all the other blonde shades. This one looks better on people with a fair to medium complexion and a yellowish undertone. Natural, platinum blonde hair is rare, yet this shade can be achieved using bleach and hair-lightening kits. A purple shampoo or a neutralizer is then used to maintain its color and to reduce the warm tones left on the strands of the hair. Purple shampoo also helps nourish dry hair due to bleaching; it is sometimes paired with hair vitamins, oil, and serums to give hair intensive maintenance.

5. Strawberry Blonde

Strawberry blonde hair looks extra feminine and fancy. It has warm, reddish tones that look great on people with fair or medium skin. Strawberry blonde hair can either be natural or salon-made. If you can’t decide whether to go blonde or red, then play it safe and choose the strawberry blonde shade, just be sure to take care of it because color-treated hair needs a lot of nourishment. Shampoo may cause a lot of dryness, so it is a must to use conditioner and hair masks.

Best Cuts/Styles for Blonde Hair

Bob cut is one of the most popular (and common) cuts for blonde hair. Some women prefer short haircuts for color-treated hair because bleached hair alone is already high-maintenance. Bob’s cut can look plain and simple without any styling but also fancy and elegant with the proper arrangement. You can create waves, tousle them, or straighten them depending on your mood.

2. Medium Cut with Side Bangs

Besides the idea that side-swept bangs make anyone look younger, it also adds a dramatic effect to your overall look. It accentuates your eyes and forehead while pulling the focus on to your hairline. This style looks better on women with round faces since it creates a strong angle. Pair it with a straight, medium cut for a more youthful finish.

Light hair looks sweet and feminine, so pairing it with a soft hairstyle might not be a good idea if you have a strong personality. Straight and short bangs create an edgy finish to any hair color, regardless of the length. However, not everyone looks great in this kind of bangs. Square-shaped faces can rock this look, but unfortunately, those with round-shaped faces should avoid this type of bangs, for it emphasizes the roundness of the cheeks even more.

4. Blonde Pixie Cut

The pixie cut is another typical style for blondes, especially for brunette-turned-blonde women. Its short length is easy to maintain, so the only problem left is maintaining the color and nourishing the roots. Chopping your hair short is a beauty risk but will leave you in awe when you realize how lightweight it feels, especially during the summer or humid days.

Having ombre highlights is one good way to enjoy being blonde without the hassle of coloring the roots occasionally.

With its stylish and artistic finish, this one looks better on long, voluminous hair and can exhibit the gradient effect even more.
