#1: Natural Honey Blonde Balayage
Blonde hair color is a great choice if you have blue eyes and warm undertones in your skin. The warm shade will flatter your skin while bringing attention to those beautiful baby blues! Try a natural blonde & honey balayage. Often, warm tones in your skin (reds, yellows) work well with warm tones in your hair (caramel honey). The technique is key, and going to a stylist trained to make a smooth and subtle blend up into the root will get you the best results.
#2: Honey Blonde on Long Hair
If you have naturally dark, long hair, honey-blonde tones are a perfect way to introduce blonde hues. The honey-blonde hue can be achieved by using a teasy highlight technique. This technique involves teasing the hair in small highlighted sections and softly lightening these areas. Try the teasy highlight method for a more rooted or soft look.
#3: Layered Hair with Balayage Highlights
This multi-dimensional balayage is a beautiful mix of honey blonde highlights and a warm brown base. These golden highlights should be hand-painted and blended for a sun-kissed and natural look. Hand-painted highlights create a blended dimension without the demarcation lines from foil highlights. Adding a shadow root, typically closer to your natural color, will give you even more longevity between color appointments. These warm honey blonde strands reflect light and complement most skin tones, especially a fair skin tone.
#4: Dark Brown to Yummy Honey
If you want to experiment with shades of honey blonde before fully committing, go for it. The lowest-impact ways would be as an ombré, like the photo above. Try a dark brown to honey blonde melt for a unique and beautiful blend. It’s best to ask your stylist if you can lighten your hair and keep its integrity. Be sure to bring an image to your next appointment for reference. This beautiful warm honey blonde ombre hair is great for almost any skin color.
#5: Grey Covering for Older Women
Look instantly chic and younger with a honey blonde dye if you’re an older woman who needs grays covered. Sometimes gray hair can be coarse and unruly. Coloring your tresses can soften your texture for smoother and softer-looking hair. This color will bring warmth to your hair and complexion for a youthful appearance.
#6: Honey Blonde Money Piece on Black Hair
Achieving this hair can be challenging if you normally dye your hair a dark shade. You may need several salon visits to get your hair light enough, but this is much gentler on your hair than bleaching multiple times in one appointment. Go for a 90s vibe with a money piece if you have black hair. Blonde highlights on black hair make your locks look fabulous and trendy. A lob haircut is a perfect length, and sparkly gold tones add a pop of color and shine. Show an image of a trendy lob style to your stylist on your next visit.
#7: Natural-Looking Honey Blonde
Honey blonde shades can be next to natural on your light brown hair color! Great for any skin tone, a honey dye job is a beautiful way to enhance your features. Examples of honey are also called warm and golden.
#8: Dimensional Color Melt
Catch the light with a dimensional color melt. Super warm-tone blondes will make your hair color look super shimmery and lush.
#9: With a Shadow Root on Medium-Length Hair
Rooted hair tousled in soft curls fits perfectly if you want a new look for your tresses while keeping them soft. This color hair has the perfect balance between golden and beige hues giving your color a bright, sun-kissed glow.
#10: Stunning Copper Red with Honey Blonde
Honey blonde hair color for girls offers a wide range of customization. You can even pair it with red and copper hues, like in the photo above. This honey and copperish-red blonde balayage is a classic look if you’re a natural redhead. Hand-painting soft dimension is key to the perfect low-maintenance color that most women dream of. Hair that’s curled together with a natural red base will show off these luscious warm tones.
#11: Dimensional Color on Straight Layered Hair
Styling won’t take much more work than darker shades. Update your lackluster locks with a low-maintenance dimensional color on your straight and layered hair. A caramel hair color is another delicious warm tone that will give your hair a brighter and more luxurious appearance.
#12: Flattering for Older Women Over 60
Consider doing this flattering shade if you’re an older woman and over the age of 60. Sometimes a brighter blonde can wash out your skin tone, making you appear older. To help prevent this from happening, stick with a golden tone, adding warmth to your complexion.
#13: Luscious Honey Blonde Pixie Bob
A bixie is a great style to rock during the hot summer to keep you cooler. Having your hair off your neck will make a difference during heat waves. A blonde bob is very eye-catching due to its warmth, brightness, and shine, and really…your hair will speak for itself.
#14: Dimensional Bright Blonde Balayage
Look simply stunning with a bright blonde balayage. If your hair color is naturally light, bright blonde hues are easily lifted with minimal damage. Multi-dimensional tones will give your hair a luxurious shine and make your complexion glow. Try a trendy and stylish new look to be ready for anything.
#15: Curly Honey Wolf Cut
Go for an edgy, unique style with a curly wolf cut to pair with your highlights. Your curls will spring up with ease with all the stacked layers. Prevent your curly hair from getting too brassy by using a purple shampoo at home and get frequent toners at the salon.
#16: Darker Balayage on Beautiful Long Hair
Try a darker balayage on your long hair for a sleek, slight-contrast color. It’s perfect for your hair if you want warmth like yellow and gold. This is also the ideal hair on brown skin. Darker blonde hues are a great transition color when blending grey hair and cutting down on salon visits.
#17: Darker Honey on Medium-Length Wavy Hair
Warm your skin tone with a darker blend on medium-length wavy hair. Warm tone hues are easier to achieve on your hair and bring a natural sun-kissed glow. Golden honey hues will make your hair look shiny and luscious. Put some soft waves in to show off all the beautiful multi-dimensional hair colors.
#18: Hand-Painted Balayage
Trying out a style isn’t a big commitment. If you don’t love your new look, ask your stylist to neutralize the warmth during your next color appointment. Are you seeking a non-committal natural look? Try a hand-painted balayage for an elegant style that never gets old. Keeping the warmth with the honey tones keeps the overall color looking bright.
#19: Easy Dark Honey on Short Hair
A dark hue works well for a girl who likes dimension. I do a lot of balayage on my clients because it has such an easy grow-out versus your basic foils. This color looks great with this particular short hairstyle.
#20: Dark & Light Honey Blonde
Blonde waves are the perfect match when you wanna go for a fantastic textured flirty hairstyle. You can style your locks with braids to push back and show off those dark roots. They’ll give an additional dimension to your hair’s deeper honey colors.
#21: Coppery Blonde for Older Women
Coppery blonde hair coloring is stunning for older women with a warm complexion. Darker shadow roots allow for a better grow-out and easier maintenance, too.
#22: Taupe-y Blend for Women Over 50
Some colors look best with a medium to dark warm skin tone. Warm hues accentuate warm skin tones without making you look red or blotchy. This taupe-y honey blend is flattering for women over 50 who want beautiful dimensions. The taupe adds depth and helps the color look beautiful and bright. Ask your stylist to alternate hi-lite colors with lighter pieces around your face skin tones if you are fair.
#23: Rich Chestnut Brown to Light Ombre
An ombre caramel color melt is a color that transitions between a lighter blonde and brown hair color. You can wear it straight, and it will look blended. A honey-hued color is perfect if you want something low-maintenance. It grows out very naturally. Adding waves gives it more dimension and texture. If you have fine hair, use texture spray for body.
#24: Modern Highlights
Consider a modern highlight style with dark honey highlights. This hair color is soft, warm, and feminine, but the bangs give the overall look an edge and keep everything from looking too saccharine. This honey hair color is great for any woman since adding soft golden tones to your hair seems universally flattering. This is particularly true for older women since the complexion naturally cools down as we age. Warmth reinvigorates the skin and adds a cheery overall disposition to your honey shade.
#25: Sun-Kissed Highlights
Discuss maintenance with your stylist if you plan to go honey blonde at your next salon appointment. Certain shades require more frequent visits for toning and touch-ups to keep your color looking good. This blonde balayage tone is very trendy and low-maintenance. The natural honey hue would be great if you want to be blonde and not have to come to the salon every four weeks. The darker root grows out well, while the blonde brings fun to your long hairstyle.
#26: Stunning Ashy Blonde
Rich mocha chocolate blended into honey as a balayage is stunning. Depending upon your natural base color, this level of highlights may take several hair appointments. Pack your patience and keep up with maintenance at home with a purple-colored shampoo to keep tones from becoming brassy.
#27: Natural-Looking Light Honey
Try a light honey by keeping your natural base and adding pops of blonde foils. It’s easy to maintain, style, and very natural looking if you’re looking for something low-maintenance. However, coming in every 6-8 weeks to maintain a healthy color like this is recommended.
#28: Bright & Warm Honey Shade
This hair color has a warm tone, comparable to chestnut, gold, and even slightly red hues. This bright and warm blonde is a natural alternative to blonde. It’s for those not ready for platinum hair or who want to keep some warmth to their current color. When asking your stylist for streaks of warm blonde, make sure they can lift your natural color. Lifting it to the correct level before toning to this beautiful shade is important.
#29: Casual Golden Hues
Honey blonde can be a big change if you normally wear neutral or cool hair colors. To avoid being overly shocked by the change, ask your stylist to slowly add tones with each visit. These golden hues above are multi-dimensional and great for women wanting both blonde and brunette tones. The best thing about this shade is its versatility and how the tones amplify features like skin tone and eye color.
#30: Refreshed Honey Beige Blonde Hair
If you want honey blonde colors in your tresses, consider how big of a change you’d like to see. You can go very subtle, like the photo above, or go with chunky highlights. This subtle beige blonde color has warmer tones and adds dimension. Many of the blondes I come across are very cool-toned, so changing things up was fun. Adding a beige color can tone down your hair, making it a perfect seasonal transition color.
#31: Flattering Blonde and Honey Balayage on Straight Hair
Most shades of honey blonde don’t offer icy or cool tones. The best part is that this shade stays fresh for a long time because of the warm colors. Using a purple or blue shampoo at home can keep your color fresh even longer. However, steer clear of honey hues if you’re seeking a truly ashy blonde or blue-blonde.
#32: Bright Blonde & Creamy Hair
Blonde creamy hair looks luxurious and natural. Right now, it’s all about warm, rich, and luxurious blonde colors. The BlondMe series from Schwarzkopf has a shampoo and conditioner that keeps the color rich and fresh. I also love Schwarzkopf’s Peach Foam Color that you can easily use at home as color-adding aftercare.
#33: Neutral Honey Blonde
These hues can be achieved by heavily applying traditional foil highlights and toning out unwanted warm tones. This wearable shade of honey-colored hair is for all skin tones! I suggest consistent trips to the salon for highlight touch-ups and a trim every 6 to 10 weeks. However, it depends on how fast your hair grows to keep your ends healthy and your new growth nice and bright!
#34: Sweet Dark Hair with Highlights
Adding highlights on warm dark hair is an all-time favorite color. This sweet variation of color is made exciting by having different tones of honey blonde streaks for more dimension. At the same time, the darker root provides you with less maintenance.
#35: Dimensional Blonde Shade With Honey Hues
A natural blonde shade with honey hues is gorgeous. When your ends start to look dingy, have your colorist do a toner treatment, and you’ll be back to this lovely color!
#36: Trendsetting Wavy Bob
Ladies with pale skin should try this light tone. Match the color with a wavy style for a stunning, trendy look. Be sure to show your stylist just the shade of honey you desire, as a range of hair colors can be played within the style.
#37: Dimensional Highlights
Dimensional highlights create a luscious color that flatters warm skin tones. Adding dimension to your existing hair color will also bring your haircut to life. Consider styling with a loose wave to show off those beautiful honey tones.
#38: Amazing Dark Roots
Honey blonde hair is ideal if you’re naturally blonde and only going one level lighter than your base color. It’s also ideal for light grey coverage/blending. A few face-framing highlights and every other root touch-up can brighten and add dimension to an already beautiful tone.
#39: Gorgeous Layered Bob
If you’re an older woman, consider this shade of honey blonde colored hair to cover your grays. It’s a fun short cut with short layers that gives your fine and thinning hair body and volume. The best thing about it is how the color and the dimension give your hair a beautifully soft and fuller look.
#40: Balayage Highlights & Lowlights
Balayage highlights and lowlights with a shadow root are a great combination. This hair dye has dimension from the lowlights and the easy grow-out from the shadow root. If you color frequently, I recommend toning shampoo and deep conditioning treatment once a week. Proper maintenance at home is important to keep your hair healthy and your blonde looking its best.
#41: Warm & Neutral Honey Blonde
Going lighter than your natural color and placing these highlights around your face will add lots of softness and soften harsh facial features. A warm style combines warm and neutral, so it works for various skin tones.
Honey blonde hair is a blend of dark and warm blonde with light brown. The rich blonde hair color gets its name by having a similar hue as real honey made by honey bees. This is a great hair color because it compliments nearly every skin tone.
There’s nothing I love more than a multi-tonal blonde bombshell. A bright platinum certainly gets my heart beating fast, but it’s always nice to add multiple dimensions and make each tone pop. If you want to switch up your hairstyle and color and look for some inspiration, add a bit of a warm honey tone.
