Ash blonde color is an ideal choice for all those who want to have a lighter shade of color on their hair, but still don’t want to completely switch to blonde. Blonde hair is very demanding to maintain, so this shade is better because it is not like classic blonde. Waves go beautifully with this color.

In this photo, you can see an example of hair with the balayage technique. Balayage is a hair lightener that is often used by people who want to lighten their hair and is most often used when it comes to pulling out strands. Some people need this technique, some don’t, and it all depends on your natural pigment and your natural hair color, and it’s best to consult with your chosen hairdresser. It is most often used in people who have dark hair, i.e. red pigment of the head. Red pigment, without balayage, will create an orange growth on the head and it would ruin the blonde color.

6. Stormy Grey

What a color! We didn’t call her Stormy Gray for no reason. This color belongs to the type of ash-blonde hair color, but it is a little different and darker. The ends give off a silvery/grey sheen, while the rest of the hair is a little darker and this looks like a tornado, doesn’t it?

7. Pearly White Hair

Pearly white hair gives us the vibe of some sea princess on summer days. This color suits and belongs to the summer because of its beautiful shade, and it will go well with the darker complexion you get during the summer. On the other hand, this hair can also give the vibe of an icy queen, because it is white/grey, so it can be considered a winter color because winter is characterized by such shades. Whether you will be Elsa from Frozen or Princess ‘Kida’ Kidagakash Nedakh (The Lost Empire) is up to you to choose.

8. Long Hair

By nature, long hair on someone always attracts people’s attention, whether they like long hair or not, it is completely expected that their eyes turn to such wonderful hair. This beautiful shade of color is accompanied by curly ends and reaches below half of the back, which is already very long. The lighter ends of the hair look fresher, while the darker top of the head blends perfectly with the lighter shade, and the darker side helps the lighter one stand out better.

9. All Ash Blonde

Although the ash blonde color is generally used only for highlighting the lighter ends and it is the most common choice, it can still be used for the entire hair, from beginning to end. You can see what it looks like in this photo. This color is recommended for people with darker skin.

10. Wavy Balayage

Another photo with the balayage technique. This technique was necessary because natural hair is much darker, so it would not be possible to get the right shade if ordinary paint without brighteners was applied.

11. Babylights
