Blonde hair highlights: 7 celebrity-approved looks to try
1. Emily Blunt’s slicing highlights
Emily Blunt, who recently starred in the epic The Girl on the Train film, is usually sporting a brunette hue, however, she is also not one to shy away from blonde hair highlights.
The starlet took to the red carpet with this fabulous style, rocking super-fine highlighted strands. This technique is known as ‘slicing’ and is great for adding extra depth to the hair, helping give you a sophisticated finish.
Editor’s tip: Think blonde hair with brown highlights is what you need to shake up your style? Then be sure to invest in a wash and care system specifically made for coloured tresses.
We love the Dove Colour Care Shampoo and Conditioner, which will help maintain your gorgeous hue’s vibrancy, while also making your hair feel more nourished!
2. Jennifer Aniston’s all over highlights
If you are a lover of blonde hair with highlights, then why not take your cue from Jennifer Aniston? Blonde highlights have become her signature style, brightening up her appearance and providing extra depth to her layered locks.
To get this red carpet look for yourself, simply ask your stylist for a varying mix of bright blonde and medium-toned shades from root to tip. Jen would be proud!
3. Whitney Port’s highlighted ombre
Ombre hair has undeniably been one of the most coveted styles over the last few years – and leading the celebrity pack is The Hills star Whitney Port.
Blending her medium brown hair into a light blonde finish, the look emphasises her natural tones perfectly, while also helping to give a more subtle finish to the overall style. Keep up the good work, Whitney!
4. Sarah Jessica Parker’s frosted highlights
The graduated look on Sarah Jessica Parker’s hair is reminiscent of her Carrie Bradshaw days. Leaving her roots dark, the hair then lightens to a medium-brown hue, before ending with light-blonde frosted tips.
We also think Sarah’s dark blonde hair with highlights would look great in a updo, enabling the transcending colours to be displayed in all their glory!
5. Bella Thorne’s ribboned highlights
For those with curly hair, ribbon highlights have become one of the hottest hues to try, thanks to their universally flattering aesthetic.
Proving just how fantastic they can be is Bella Thorne, who wore her blonde hair with red highlights in a set of undone curls, for a glossy, strawberry-blonde finish.
6. Gigi Hadid’s sombre
We’re now moving from ombre to sombre (AKA subtle ombre). And lucky for us, Gigi Hadid is a huge fan of having blonde hair with brown highlights, making the ideal match for her blonde tresses. The model upgraded her sombre with faux, eyebrow-skimming bangs, which framed her round face.
7. Jennifer Lopez’ lowlights combination
Singer, actress and all-round mega-babe, Jennifer Lopez opted for both high and lowlights to spruce up her long bob. Incorporating a mixture of golden brown and blonde shades to her hair, she’s left with an ultra-feminine ‘do that is all kinds of fabulous!
Editor’s tip: Get Jennifer’s wavy finish by using the TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Wave Creating Sea Foam, which will make creating light waves a total breeze.
