As you can probably tell from some of our previous articles, we absolutely love brunette hair! It’s beautiful and versatile, and can make you look younger, while softening heavily pronounced facial features. Yet, with the arrival of summer, many brunettes start thinking of a more playful, sun-kissed look. While adding a few lighter streaks seems like the obvious choice for the breezy, carefree days ahead, people are often reluctant to take this step. The reason? It can be quite difficult to choose the right style. There is a wide variety of looks and colors to consider, and picking one can be difficult. Would you rather opt for some tasteful highlights or a chic balayage? For a cool ombre or a subtle and understated sombre? If you feel confused, we are here to help! In today’s article, we will explore the different options for brown hair with blonde highlights, balayage and ombre.
Highlights
Although brown hair with blonde highlights was considered a bit outdated last year, this summer it’s coming back in a big way! Many feel put off when they hear the word “highlights” because they picture platinum blonde streaks on dark brunette hair. Let us assure you that this is not the case! Although highlights come in a variety of different colors, and some people do opt for contrasting combinations, the rule of thumb is to choose a shade that is slightly lighter than your base color. This will ensure a final result that is both natural-looking and aesthetically pleasing.
