Blonde to White Blonde Ombre Hair

Q&A with style creator, Zoe Wiepert
Hair Colorist / Educator @ Bumble and bumble. in New York, NY

How would you describe this?

This white blonde to light blonde ombre was dyed into an icy vanilla blonde. Find a colorist specializes in natural hair blondes. Don’t think there’s only a couple blonde tones like golden blonde or an ash blonde hair color. There are so many tones in between – baby blonde, vanilla, creamy, wheaty, beige, sunny, caramel, butterscotch, apricot, pinky, rosy, etc.

What’s your best advice?

Take into consideration skin tone, eye color, eyebrow color, and how you wear makeup. If you have pinky or golden undertones in your skin, having a hair color that’s too gold will make the pink stand out more. The gold in the skin will blend with the hair, and it will be too much all over one color.

If you go ashy, it would make your skin look shallow or you would appear to look older. With that being said, if you have pinky/golden undertones, you would be best with a more baby blonde or beige blonde or do what is happening this picture – beige on the top that slowly transitions to a baby icy blonde.

It is possible to make Asian hair this light and have a soft transition as well but that will take time, and patience is also important when going from dark to light. Picture the hair shaft as a tree ring when going from dark to light. As it gets lighter and lighter, the cuticle of the hair gets thinner, but with the right products, you can strengthen the hair.

Black to Dirty Blonde Ombre Hairstyle

Hairstylist @ Essence Salon in San Diego, CA

How would you describe this?

The best thing about this dirty blonde ombre is all the dimension that seamlessly blends. It’s a lived-in natural tone blonde that melts from the natural roots. Ask your colorist to cut your hair first, then paint in bright pieces that pop.

What’s your best advice?

Use the Framesi color lover purple shampoo once a week to make sure it doesn’t get too brassy. The Amika Kure shampoo & conditioner is for daily use because it is sulfate-free and full of moisture.

It’s a very low maintenance color (you usually go into the salon every 3-4 months).

Ash Blonde Ombre on Brown Hair

@hairbyrachelmae

Q&A with style creator, Rachel Menchken
Designer @ Hair To Dye For in Easton, PA

How would you describe this?

This is a dimensional ash blonde ombre balayage. The panels of hair were painted using a clay lightener. The tonality and how all the colors blend seamlessly into one another creates beautiful ombre colors.

What’s your best advice?

Making ombre hair blonde is so universal and can be done on all different colors and types of hair. However, if you’re looking to go this light from darker hair, it can take multiple sessions.

Brown and blonde ombre is very low maintenance, so it is good for women who have a busy lifestyle and aren’t looking to come in every 6 weeks for touch-ups. Because the hair is lightened, try using a good moisturizing sulfate-free shampoo and heat protecting spray when using hot tools.

Natural Black to Blonde Ombre

How would you describe this?

Natrual black to blonde ombre is amazing! In this photo, the hair was bleached balayage on the black hair then toner was used with 9n + 9v + 9t (Redken shades).

What’s your best advice?

Use purple shampoo every time you wash your ombre hair. It will take the yellow out and make your  hair blonder. If your hair is curly and thick, get a keratin treatment regularly to make your blonde ombre hair smoother and shinier. Also, use a deep conditioner.

Blonde Balayage Ombre

@styledbycarolyn

This blonde balayage ombre is a melted ombre. To achieve this blonde, ask your colorist to blend your natural hair into a bright blonde ends. This will create a soft transition. If your hair is level 5 naturally, you shouldn’t need to tone your ends. This may create a warm honey blonde ombre.

To enhance your natural hair color with low maintenance brightness, use purple shampoo. This will brighten up your blonde ombre. Purple shampoo will also keep you from frequenting the salon to be touched up again.

Bleached Blonde to Dark Brown Ombre

@deryndaniels

Q&A with style creator, Deryn Daniels
Senior Stylist @ Chrome Salon in Evergreen, CO

How would you describe this?

This is a medium to dark reverse balayage. Two different colors were used; one only a few shades darker than the natural color and the final color at the very ends at least 5 shades darker than the natural level.

The coolest thing about this ombre hair is how the blonde blends into the dark color. That’s always the key with any balayage, blend blend blend!

What’s your best advice?

This ombre is for any natural blonde, who doesn’t want to fully color their hair. This is a great way to try something new and express yourself through hair color and not fully commit to coloring. It’s still an easy fix, just trim the color off.

Women with thinner blonde hair could try this and find that this look adds dimension to their hair and can even make it appear thicker.
