Add some dimension to your brown locks by styling highlights with different looks – whether in one strand or as streaks! Champagne and Venetian blonde highlights are an ideal complement to dark brown locks, whether done through the balayage technique or foils for more concentrated lighting.
Blonde Ombre
Long, straight hair looks stunning with a stunning blonde ombre that blends seamlessly into dark roots, adding a hint of light pink for an elegant style that flatters your face. Wavy and curly locks also look incredible when styled with blonde ombre; ask your stylist to ensure its gradual transition blends seamlessly with the natural shade of your locks. Even brunettes can rock an ombre style without breaking a sweat! For something subtler, opt for an ebony to chestnut or honey-toned hue, which softens the contrast. Blonde ombre looks incredible with any hairstyle, from sleek lobs to relaxed waves bobs. Even high ponytails look fantastic with this color; remember to use heat protectant before straightening them for optimal results.
