As temperatures warm, now is the time to think about summer hair colors! Check out some eye-catching ideas below that might spark your creativity.
Acknowledging your inner blonde with a champagne-colored somber
The perfect way to embrace summer is with subtle platinum highlights that will be manageable for the space and time available for styling your locks.
Rose Gold
Rose gold has quickly become one of the trendiest colors this year and looks set to remain so! A vibrant mix of pink, blonde, and ash tones, this charming hue can be as bold or subdued as desired. Ideal for those with lighter locks or highlights who wish to add some color without bleaching their whole head beforehand.
Rose gold works particularly well for warm skin tones with neutral or blue eyes. It can also add brightness to brunette hair or contrast dark manes.
Pumpkin Spice
This orange-red hue flatters all skin tones and offers a warm coppery tone. Perfect for those who want to experiment with warm hues without going too dark or bright. Lighter shades like this can appear more natural with a balayage finish instead of full head coloring. Face-framing highlights in honey, strawberry, or copper hues can further enhance the sun-kissed effect.
Wheat
Wheat blonde is the ideal way to brighten your autumn look and soften it for winter. The warm yet neutral qualities of this shade suit many skin tones. Transitioning into lighter snow blonde shades as the temperature drops in the wintertime is also possible.
Dark Ashy Blonde
Ash blonde is an excellent option for brunettes looking to lighten their locks without going for an excessively yellow tone. Combining warm and cool tones together creates a beautiful balayage look. Blonde roast, a combination of dark blonde and brown tones, mimics the color of your favorite caffeinated beverage and is perfect for growing out without frequent touch-ups.
For an effortless ice-blonde look, paint the roots a few shades lighter than your natural hue, then fade to an ash blonde at the ends. This style looks incredibly stunning on long strands using smooth balayage or soft ombre techniques.
