Blonde hair, with its radiant and various different shades, remains a timeless choice that can be customized to you. Let's chat about the different types of blondes, I have broken them down to three groups: Warm Blondes, Cool Blondes, and Neutral Blondes.

Warm Blondes

1. Golden Blonde: Radiating warmth, golden blonde displays a sun-kissed glow with its rich hues. This shade is perfect for those seeking a natural and vibrant look.

2. Honey Blonde: honey blonde gives off a golden-brownish tone, creating a warm and inviting appearance that complements various skin tones.

3. Strawberry Blonde: Infused with subtle red undertones, strawberry blonde really brings out the warmth. It's an amazing choice for those desiring a delicate blend of blonde and red tones.

4.Caramel Blonde: has very rich golden-brown hues, caramel blonde adds depth and dimension to your hair. It's a versatile choice that works well with a variety skin tones.

Pros:

Radiant and Vibrant: Warm blondes, such as golden and honey blonde, radiate a vibrant and sun-kissed glow, adding some warmth to your overall look.

Natural Look: These shades often mimic the natural process of hair lightening due to sun exposure, providing a seamlessly blended, natural look. 

Flexibility: Warm blondes are very flexible and can complement a wide range of skin tones, making them an excellent choice for many people.

Cons:

Potential to turn brassy: Warm tones may be prone to turn brassy over time, especially without proper maintenance. Regular toning and the use of purple shampoo every so often can help with this issue. 

High Maintenance: Achieving and maintaining warm blonde hues can require more frequent salon visits depending on your hair goals. At-home care is also crucial to maintain the desired warmth and prevent fading. I will say warm tones are the most achievable out of all other tones of blondes because all hair types lift warm. But as for all blondes they still require some maintenance just not as much!

Cool Blondes

1. Platinum Blonde: Platinum blonde is a striking, almost icy shade that gives off boldness and sophistication. This high-maintenance choice is perfect for those who love to stand out.

2. Ash Blonde: Cool and stylish, ash blonde features muted, greyish undertones. It's an ideal choice for those seeking a subtle and dimmed look while still having that dimension. 

3. Champagne Blonde: A blend of beige and pale gold, champagne blonde is cool-toned yet very soft. I feel it is perfect for those seeking a classy aesthetic.

Pros:

Modern look: Cool blondes, like platinum and ash blonde, offer a modern aesthetic, perfect for those seeking a high-fashion or edgy look.

Reduced Brassiness: Cool-toned shades are meant to mute warm tones in the hair. So it is less likely to feel brassy with cool tones 

Variety of Tones: Cool blondes offer a variety of tones, from icy platinum to ash, allowing for a personalized look that goes with different preferences.

Cons:

High Maintenance: Achieving and maintaining cool blonde shades, especially platinum, does requires regular salon visits and professional products to avoid yellowing since all hair lift warms and toner over time does fade. 

Potential for Dullness: Over time, cool blondes may develop a dull appearance. Coming into the salon frequently to re-tone your blonde is necessary to restore its vibrancy.

Neutral Blondes

1. Neutral Blonde: a mix between warm and cool tones, neutral blonde is a great balance that is neither too warm or too cool. It's a versatile choice that complements a wide range of skin tones.

2. Beige Blonde: Combining warm and cool undertones, beige blonde creates a neutral and flattering look. It's a great choice for those looking for a natural but refined appearance.

3. Sandy Blonde: imitates the natural tones of sun-kissed sand, sandy blonde is a neutral choice that offers warmth without being too golden. It's a low-maintenance option for a beachy, laid-back vibe.

Pros:

Balance: Neutral blondes strike a balance between warm and cool tones. 

Lower Maintenance: Neutral blondes usually require less maintenance than extreme warm or cool shades, making them a great choice for those who prefer a more low maintenance look.

Great for a lot of Skin Tones: The neutral nature of these shades allows them to go well with a variety of skin tones, offering a natural look.

Cons:

Lack of Dramatic Contrast: For those seeking a more dramatic or high-contrast blonde look, neutral shades may appear more softened.

Popularity in Trends: Neutral blondes may not always go with the latest hair color trends which is totally okay, as they tend to offer a classic and timeless appearance.

Understanding the type of blondes allows you to choose a shade that goes well with your individual style, skin tone, and personality making it very customizable to you! :) The different types of blondes offer endless possibilities for a stunning and personalized transformation.
