All About Blonde Hair
The Ultimate Guide to Going Blonde at Woo Salon in Thorpe Bay, Essex
Blonde is one of our most asked-for hair colours at Woo Salon in Thorpe Bay... and with good reason! There are so many shades of blonde to choose from that we reckon we can find hair a shade to suit just about anyone! Whether you're dreaming of an icy platinum shade, a soft golden hue, or natural sun-kissed highlights, our colour experts at Woo are here to help. Read on to find out all you need to know about going blonde, from the initial consultation to at-home care tips.
Choosing the Right Shade of Blonde
The journey to blonde starts with finding the perfect shade to complement your skin tone and sense of style. Blondes range from cool ash tones and silvery platinum to honey and caramel tones, so there really is something for everyone.
For fair skin tones, cool shades like platinum or ash blonde can add a striking contrast. Warmer skin tones often look best with golden or caramel blonde. Olive and darker skin tones pair beautifully with rich, honeyed hues that add warmth without looking brassy. Your colourist will work with you to find the shade that looks great on you.
The Process of Going Blonde
Bear in mind that it may take more than one session to achieve the look you want, particularly if you are going from dark to blonde. We are likely to recommend a gradual lightening approach if you are dramatically changing your base shade so we can avoid damaging your hair.
Book a complimentary consultation so we can discuss your hair history, assess your hair, and look at some images of hair colours you fancy. Techniques like balayage, highlights, and babylights are popular for those wanting a softer transition, while an all-over tint can be more dramatic.
Caring for Blonde Hair
Blonde hair requires a bit of TLC to keep it looking fresh and vibrant. At Woo Salon, we recommend high-quality products, including nourishing, repairing, or hydrating shampoos and conditioners. We love the Wella Ultimate Repair System and Nioxin kits designed to nourish and protect your hair. Investing in a nourishing hair treatment once a week can do wonders to keep your blonde locks healthy, shiny, and soft.
Blonde hair, especially when lightened, can be more prone to dryness. We suggest regular trims to keep ends healthy and the use of a leave-in conditioner to protect hair from heat styling.
