How To Choose Your Ideal Blonde Hair Shade

"Will blonde hair colour suit me?"

"Can I change my dark hair to platinum blonde?"

"How much will it cost me to go blonde?"

These are amongst the most common questions the Blonde Envy colour specialists regularly get asked.

We want you to love your blonde hair colour which is why we recommend booking in for a hair colour consultation prior to your appointment so you can chat with our expert stylists about any concerns you may have. When selecting the best blonde shades and techniques for you, we will analyse your hair and advise you on what can realistically be achieved at your first appointment.

Will Going Blonde Damage My Hair?

The condition of your hair is our top priority so we may advise that it will take more than one appointment to safely lift your hair colour to your desired blonde shade, we would also recommend adding Olaplex to your hair colour service to protect and strengthen your hair during the lightening process - Olaplex allows us to lighten your hair further than we could previously. Your Blonde Envy colour technician will advise you on an expected timescale for your blonde hair journey at your hair colour consultation. 

Which Hair Colour Service Should I Ask For?

Our team, offer a wide range of bespoke hair colouring services. Talk to your Blonde Envy stylist about the look you would like and we will recommend the best way in which to achieve it. Below are examples of some of the hair colours and techniques we use at our hair salons...

All-Over Hair Colour

Ombré/ Balayage / Root Stretching
Root Melt / Colour Melt
Babylights / Foils / Microlights

What Are The Different Blonde Hair Colours?

Looking for a super light, bright blonde hair colour? Silvery ash blonde shades look beautiful when added as highlights and can also be used to blend away grey hairs as well as looking stunning when teamed with contrasting buttery tones and honey hues. Your Blonde Envy colour expert will suggest the best colour protecting products to use at home to keep your new blonde hair colour looking vibrant and remove any unwanted brassy yellow tones between salon visits.

One of the most popular hair colour trends in recent years is the "lived-in blonde" look. Alternatively known as dirty blonde, lived-in blonde hair colour offers a low maintenance way of highlighting the hair, allowing the lightened hair colour to grow out naturally without an obvious root regrowth.

If you're looking to liven up a mousy brown hair colour, your Blonde Envy stylist may add contrasting golden blonde shades, honey hues and caramel shades to add depth and dimension to your hair colour. Strawberry blonde hair colours look stunning against fair skin tones, adding blonde and copper tones can break up the colour and illuminate your complexion. 

What Products Are Best For Blonde Hair?

Your Blonde Envy colour specialist can recommend a wide range of cleansing, conditioning and styling products specially designed to illuminate your blonde hair colour and knock out any brassy or yellow tones. We use the fantastic KEVIN MURPHY products in our salon and recommend them for home use too! KEVIN MURPHY products are sulphate, paraben and cruelty free, so that you can look after your blonde locks with a squeaky clean conscience!
