Blended blonde highlights can add depth and dimension to dark hair. To create this effect, your colorist must bleach both roots and lengths of the darker locks to a light blonde or bronde tone before using either balayage for lighter strands or ombre for an eye-catching sun-kissed effect.
Natural Look
Achieve radiant highlights with blonde highlights that blend in seamlessly with your base color, adding a radiant sheen. Unlike dyeing your hair, these lighter tones make maintenance between salon visits much simpler, making these highlights appropriate for every season – summer calls for caramel shades with sun-kissed appearance; autumn offers honey blonde hues which complement changing leaves; while in winter try ashy blonde hues which provide cool vibes.
Whatever your style, your stylist can help you achieve an impeccable blonde look. And with so many highlighting techniques available today, finding your ideal look should be simple. From warm balayage streaks on dark brown hair, to cool face-framing highlights in platinum blonde or sombre for brunettes; there is sure to be one to suit both your personality and beauty goals – just remember specialized products and frequent salon visits are key in maintaining gorgeous highlights that suit you best!
Low Maintenance
By going with an all-over blonde color option, you may require less frequent salon visits and touch ups, due to highlighting techniques like balayage (hand-painting lighter strands into your locks) which require much less bleach than other techniques.
Alternatively, for an easy yet more natural-looking style that requires less processing, consider balayage – using a specialized brush to hand-paint lighter strands on your hair to achieve sun-kissed effects and help camouflage any new roots as they appear.
Baby lights, or natural-looking highlights woven very subtly through your locks for a natural effect, is another alternative that offers all of the benefits of lighter strands without as drastic an approach. Baby lights are particularly suitable for brunettes who may feel intimidated by making an all-over switch as it gives them all of its advantages without making drastic changes to their hair style.
Easy to Maintain
As opposed to the chunky foiling techniques popular during the 2000s, balayage and ombre highlight techniques produce soft, subtle highlights with effortless blending that makes upkeep easy for clients between salon visits.
At INVIGO Color Brilliance Color Protection Shampoo and INVIGO Color Recharge Warm Blonde or Cool Blonde Refreshing Conditioner we recommend to help your client maintain the health and vibrancy of their blonde shade. These two products will keep the hues vibrant.
Toners may also be necessary, and serve to remove brassiness and retone lighter pieces of hair that have been lightened more than once – especially important if a client has lightened multiple times as this could create what’s known as a line of demarcation that may be hard to rectify.
Suitable for All Hair Types
There is a variety of blonde highlights to suit almost every style and personality, from subtle babylights to the more dramatic balayage style. Each type and shade offers something special.
Foiling is one of the most commonly employed techniques for hair highlighting, where individual sections of your locks are painted with color before being folded into little strips of foil and processed. This form of highlighting can create an ombre or balayage line-look highlight but may cause significant hair damage – however.
Balayage highlights are an alternative option that’s less damaging, where stylists use a brush to hand-paint lighter strands onto your locks using hand-painter tools. This technique works especially well on shorter locks or those looking for more natural-looking results; plus it creates the illusion of more volume! To maintain seamless highlights over time and protect them from sunlight exposure and heat styling use products without harsh sulfates like color-safe shampoo and conditioners like those recommended by salon professionals.
