Please bear in mind that all the following photos and illustrations for every hair colour will not appear the same even when the precise technique, tones and formulas are employed. The fundamental reasons are because every individual hair is unique and thus will react differently and coupled with different background and history, the results will varying among different people.
COOL BLONDE
If you prefer blonde hair that has pearl, ashy, gray, or icy tones, it entails a cooler tone blonde. When your skin colour has slight pinkish, bluish or rosy tones, such cool blonde hair will be the most perfect on you. If you have decided on a cool blonde colour, you may advise your stylist that you prefer your cool blonde hair color to be towards the “ash blonde” tone. This type of colour normally will take a few salon visits to reach the desire colour even if you are already blonde, as your stylist has to eradicate all warmth colour from the original hair.
In order to achieve the objective of cool blonde colour, there is always a need to perform intensive highlights to reach the colour to a high level of “10” blonde leaving no remain of any darker pigment. Thereafter the highlights are washed and rinsed, a toner is usually needed and such colour may sometimes be damaging to the hair as your natural colour is lightened as much as possible.

WARM BLONDE
Firstly, it is always a misconception that warmer blondes have to brassy. Several ladies have the fear of requesting for a warm tone blonde due to nightmarish experiences or the phobia of getting the notorious nasty yellowish, orangey hair colour tones. Golden toned blonde hair looks very gland and elegant and look bright, and shiny than ashy blondes too. If golden, bronze, honey or buttery tones tend to appeal to you, this means that you prefer warmer blonde colour. These warm blonde hair colour works bland perfectly well with people of slight golden, peachy or yellowish skin tones.
When you are contemplating on having a such a bold warm tone blonde, you may also begin with a natural neutral blonde colour, with neither ashy or warmer based tones, which is right in between the two. Thereafter, your stylist may have a dab of golden mixed in or incorporate more of such gold each time till perfect. We advise to employ purple shampoo weekly or fortnightly with warm blonde hair to avoid the colour from looking over brassy.
“Warm” Blondes, from the Least Warm, to Most Warm
NEUTRAL BLONDE HAIR
Technically, neutral blondes colour are ideally in between the tone of warm and cool with commonly well-known names such as neutral with wheat, beige or creamy tones. Such perfect balance of cool and warm tones approach is commonly performed by having lowlights of a neutral colour on a light blonde or platinum blonde . Therefore, this blending of tones is a creative solution of deriving a fresh shade of colour.
HIGH-LIFT BLONDE COLOUR
A high-lift blonde hair colour process involves using bleach and hair colour to disintegrate the natural colour in between the blonde highlights. Occasionally, there maybe exposed of darker warm tones as typical hair color is not capable of lightening the hair as much as compared to bleach. This high-lift blonde colour would be the perfect choice for natural color of level 7 or lighter. Transformation from darker tones should avoid this colour as there is higher risk of exposing unwanted warmth within the hair.
Babylights
This is the latest good technique for pursuance of most natural hair colour with certain sun-kissed blonde highlights and baby-like fine highlights all over. Babylights are the latest fashion and the easiest way to comprehend a babylights hair colour is to relate to younger girls tresses who have natural hair colour, resembling natural looking highlights that have brighter tones towards the hair ends. Babylights process are performed by weaving extremely fine ribbons of highlights thoughout the head, and also focus on the lighter pieces across the hair line and hair ends like sun-kissed hair. This typically follow suits a root shadowing process which will be leaving out the lighter pieces round the face and hair ends entailing perfect natural looking hair colour and most important it has a lower maintenance out growth.
DIMENSION HAIR COLOUR
Dimension hair colour is perfect for the ladies who wish for more variations and gradient colours in their hair. Dimension technique will suit you if you like to have contrast, or different colours of blonde in your hair or if you do not like your hair to be one solid colour. Typically there will be shades within 3-4 levels of each other to achieve natural looks.
FULL HIGHLIGHT VERSUS PARTIAL HIGHLIGHT
These two services are the most commonly found in salons. A typical full highlight simply means that the highlights process starts at the back of the neck to the frontal of the head. A partial highlights will commence at the crown of your head to the frontal of the head. Full highlights versus Partial highlights is not about the blondness of your hair but the consistency of your hair colour from bottom to the top. If the bottom of your hair is dark or dull, then a full highlight will be the perfect choice.

The root shadow is a trending technique currently! This technique requires placing highlights all over and then shadows the hair root with a dark shades so as to soften the highlights near the roots entailing the shadowing effect. Part of the blonde are usually left out round the hairline and face to entail the vibrancy around the face!

Blonde Hair – Top Tips
If you’re thinking about going blonde, here are our top tips to consider…
1 LIGHT EYES
When advising guests on their hair colour, the main factors we consider are their eye colour and skin tone. Someone with lighter eyes and lighter skin may find it easier to go blonde in comparison to someone with darker eyes and darker skin, as their natural base colour will be quite dark, making it trickier to lift. Whatever your natural colouring might be, we would always advise that you come in for a consultation to discuss your colour and to make sure that your desired outcome is achievable.
2 A SOFTER BLONDE
Do you want to go lighter but you don’t want people to notice you’ve coloured your hair? Well, you can always opt for a softer, more textured blonde and this can be achieved by introducing darker tones throughout the hair. We particularly like Fluid Hair Painting or Balayage for this. Have a look at our menu if you get a chance, it will give you more details on the techniques, the benefits and the upkeep.
3 MAINTENANCE
Before colouring your hair it’s important to take into consideration the maintenance, especially when going blonde. As with any hair colour, after some time you will eventually notice your roots coming through. It’s important to know that if you naturally have very dark hair, it will be more difficult to lift, even when only doing the roots. Talk to us if you’re interested in any root touch up, we would be happy to advise if this could be good for you.
4 SUPER SASSY BLONDE
If you are looking for quite a noticeable change and you’re wanting to go really blonde, we have created the ultimate highlight service called Super Full Head. These are fine weave, high density highlights – perfect for any guest wanting to be super blonde. Another good option for going really blonde is Bleach. Although this is an amazing colour choice, you will probably have to tone the hair more frequently, as bleached hair is at a higher risk of being effected by elements such as the sun, wind and minerals naturally found in water.
The natural pigmentation of your hair will play a part in how well your desired tone will last. If you want more information on this, have a look at this article which explains the reason for toners.
5 CONDITIONING
The last point to discuss is the condition of your hair. If you’re going to be blonde you are going to need to invest in the condition of your hair. Nowadays, products and technology are much better than they used to be but there are still things that should be considered when thinking about the condition of your hair.
Things such as: Do you need to wash your hair that often? Do you need to blow dry it that frequently? Would you invest in an occasional deep conditioning treatment?
Making minor changes such as these can drastically improve the condition of your hair. We would advise speaking to one of our colourists on your next visit about conditioners and treatments that could be good for you and your hair.
We really hope you found this useful in determining if you should become a blonde bombshell! Personally, we love experimenting with colour and playing with the way we look. We have had many colour changes but we always come back to blonde hair in some way.
