Many ladies with light brown hair prefer highlights as an easy way to add depth and freshen their look without committing to dyeing their entire locks. Highlights add dimension while creating an instantly revitalized look without the stress.
Balayage
Balayage highlights use a technique called Balayage that allows your stylist to add streaks of color that mirror how the sun lightens your strands naturally, eliminating significant tone gaps usually seen with traditional highlights and creating more natural-looking results as your hair grows out. Sunkissed balayage is ideal for light brown hair that needs some added dimension, and will look fantastic with all hair lengths. Furthermore, this type of balayage requires minimal touch-ups; touch-ups may only need to be performed once or twice as frequently as traditional highlights.
Babylights
Babylights made waves a few years ago and are an effective and natural-looking alternative to highlights or lowlights. This technique uses tiny sections of hair exposed to sunlight to produce an all-over lighter tone that’s both subtle and attractive. Babylights are also an excellent choice for anyone seeking a golden blonde hue that will grow out naturally over time without harsh lines of demarcation. Remember that these unique highlights require extra maintenance, as your stylist must work in smaller sections at each visit.
Root Shadow
Subtle yet effective, this technique uses shades darker than your natural hue to highlight your roots, creating an easier-than-ever blend without needing to touch up every time new sources appear. A significant advantage of this style is that it requires little maintenance – making it perfect for busy women! Additionally, this approach lasts longer than other coloring techniques and requires less frequent touch-ups. This classic style looks beautiful on all lengths but incredibly flattering on straight bob haircuts. The angled silhouette draws attention to your eyes while being suitable for all complexions.
Ash Brown
Cool tones such as this ash brown suit almost any complexion and work especially well on medium to dark skin tones. To prevent your new shade from washing out into brassy yellow territory, ask your colorist to apply lowlights throughout your strands or face-framing streaks, such as those used by Blackpink Jennie, to brighten up your look without overdoing it. Shay Mitchell made her signature look famous by keeping her natural hair, so opt for an ash brown ombre with subtle silver highlights for an ideal natural-length style. Since this shade fades more rapidly than warmer tones, use sulfate-free shampoo and limit washings to thrice weekly toto preserve its vibrant hue.
Copper
Copper is a warm hue that adds shimmer to your locks, making them shine naturally. For cool skin tones, copper works best on blonde and light brown locks and should always be maintained using sulfate-free and color-safe shampoo to preserve its vibrancy. Wavy copper red bobs with subtle golden highlights can be an ideal way to make girls stand out. These stunning hair colors look especially great on blue-eyed women with pale skin tones; plus, they fit those who exhibit confident and strong personalities! Brown with warm undertones of red and gold is an outstanding way to highlight one’s beauty, looking both natural and strikingly attractive at once.
Voluminous
Voluminous refers to something significant in size or extent. You can create this effect in your hair by adding subtle highlights one or two shades lighter than your base color. This technique works exceptionally well if you have thin or delicate locks, as it will lighten and brighten their appearance without making them flat or lifeless. Warm balayage techniques with blonde and brown highlights may create the desired result for an effortless sunkissed look. This method of color transition provides more flattering results than dyeing all your locks one shade at once.
