Ash blonde hair color pegs for your next salon visit
See yourself in one of these ash blonde inspirations for the next time you want to change your hair color.
They say that when there’s smoke, there’s fire–and ash blonde, the smoky hue that’s all the rage these days, will make your look sizzle!
It’s one of the most requested hair color shades at the salon, and for good reason: This cool-toned hue, a cross between blonde and silver, is extremely flattering. It suits a wide variety of skin tones. It’s more modern and, dare we say it, chicer than the usual yellow blonde shades, but it’s still a head-turning hue. Upgrade your look with one of these looks:

2. Ash blonde highlights
Not yet ready to go all-out blonde? You can dip your toes into the trend by going for some highlights first. It’ll be a nice change from your usual hair color.
3. Ash blonde
This sultry hue treads the line between ash brown and blonde, making the people around you take a second look at your unique ‘do.
Editor’s tip: Keep your hair color from looking, well, ashen by applying Cream Silk Standout Straight Leave-On Cream on the ends for a healthy sheen.

4. Glam-Platinum ash blonde
Girls with fair, cool-toned skin can totally rock this daring hue! Wear this icy blonde shade with vampy lips and an all-white outfit for maximum impact.
5. Wavy ash blonde lob
Attending a formal event? A wavy lob elongates your neck and exudes elegance. It’s a hairstyle that works with all colors, but we love how the waves bring out this color’s silver tones.
Editor’s tip: to keep your hairstyle secured to last, mist on some TRESemmé Salon Finish Extra Hold Hairspray on your hair. It gives maximum hold with extra flyaway control, without the stiffness nor stickiness.

6. Ash blonde ombre
Opting for an ombre is another great way to ease yourself into the ash blonde world, and the transition from cool brown to subtle silver is such a great look. It’s a great color for the cooler months ahead.

7. Ash blonde with dark roots
If you’re thinking of going for a full ash blonde hair color job, this is how it might look when your roots start showing up. Ask your hairstylist to make the color at the roots a bit darker for a milder transition.
Editor’s tip: Bleached hair is also very prone to damage, so keep it healthy by switching to Cream Silk Color Protect Conditioner, a sulfate-free conditioner specially formulated to keep colored hair soft and vibrant.

8. Ash blonde with a twist
Feeling brave? This silvery blonde ‘do has streaks of pink and lilac, perfect for go-getter girls with a lot of spunk. Keep your makeup toned down by choosing warm hues on your lips and eyes.
9. Ash blonde braid
It’s amazing how much color can change a hairstyle. Case in point: The milkmaid braid gets a cool revamp with this hair color.
Editor’s tip: Prep your hair by using Sunsilk Strong and Long Shampoo, which keeps your locks strong despite the twisting and pulling you’ll do while braiding your hair.
10. Platinum ash blonde
Give long hair a feminine update with this light, creamy hairstyle! Keep it wavy and just a little disheveled for a summery look.
