Inspired by rose gold-toned jewelry, this fashionable pastel hair color makes a bold statement on all blonde shades – including darker blonde. However, to achieve this effect, you may require bleaching first to achieve its effect.
Amber Maynard Bolt and Shelley Gregory offer expert tips for safely dying your hair rose gold with Overtone semi-permanent formula.
1. Light Blonde with Rose Gold Highlights
For light blondes or out-of-the-box blondes looking for an extra boost, rose gold highlights are an easy and dramatic way to add warmth and dimension. If considering this style, have your stylist lighten your strands by several shades before dyeing to ensure you reach a vibrant pink hue and make maintaining the color easier as your roots grow out.
People with darker locks can also wear rose gold hair color! When bleaching and toning are involved, consult an experienced salon professional specializing in bleaching. While it may take multiple sessions before your strands are light enough for a rose gold hue, it is certainly possible!
For this gorgeous look, your stylist will use natural reverse ombre techniques with darker roots and lighter ends for an eye-catching rose gold and pink blend that will turn heads. When opting for this look, be sure to use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner so your strands remain looking their best!
2. Rose Gold Ombre on Dark Hair
Rose gold can make an eye-catching fade to pink for darker locks, perfect for adding subtle shimmer without dyeing their entire head. Strawberry blonde with rose gold highlights is stunning on a classic bob and can help anyone rock this trendy shade without having to dye their whole head. Just ensure to get professional assistance, as this shade may quickly turn orange otherwise.
Brunettes can also enjoy this trend by creating an organic reverse ombre rose gold look that showcases lighter ends before gradually darkening to a beautiful beachy pink shade. Make sure to use only shampoos and conditioners without Sulfates (such as EcoSulf) so your color lasts as long as possible.
Are you ready to take this trend a step further? Consider opting for a metallic rose gold pixie cut! This bold style will turn heads and look incredible with a sleek blowout or big waves – be sure to use a heat protectant when styling to maintain vibrant and healthy color!
3. Rose Gold Corkscrew Curls
Bubblegum rose gold shade is an eye-catching take on this trend that will set you apart from your blonde peers. This warm pink hue features golden strawberry blonde undertones, making it particularly stunning when highlighted on light hair colors like buttery blonde. Opt for loose waves or sleek bob cuts with volume that showcase your vibrant locks for optimal results when rocking this fun hue. UseUse a heat protectant that adds shine, like Pureology Style Protect Shine Bright Taming Serum as heat protectant shine adder.
Brunettes can join in the rose gold trend! For an attractive take, opt for a blush rose gold balayage. This soft pink shade blends seamlessly into a natural brown base for an exquisite, feminine look requiring minimal maintenance.
Use shampoo and conditioner free from sulfates to maintain the rose gold look. Since their bleach-based formula may cause your color to fade more rapidly, gentle products like these should be utilized. Furthermore, always apply heat protectant before styling for maximum heat damage prevention and frizz control.
4. Rose Gold Ombre on Light Blonde Hair
If you are still deciding whether to dye your entire mane a bright pink shade like rose gold, consider trying something more subtle. A skilled colorist can use balayage highlighting techniques to apply lighter rose gold shades at the ends and mid-lengths of your strands, creating a seamless transition that looks gorgeous when worn in bouncy curls.
Rose gold hair color may seem exclusively designed for blondes, but the shimmering pastel shade can also work wonders on brunettes! Though going rose gold on dark locks may present more of a challenge, your colorist can help by lightening the base strands first before hand-painting rosey hues for a fantastic finish.
Remember that rose gold tones require more frequent touchups than regular bleach and tone because their highlighting technique is more damaging to your locks. Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner so your rose gold tones last as long as possible!
