Contrary to popular belief, hair color and skin tone go hand in hand. Depending on your natural skin pigmentation there are certain hair colors that tend to bring out your natural beauty more so than others. The perfect hair color will not only complement your skin tone and allow your best facial features pop, and it can also help you look younger. However if you get it wrong, you could end up looking washed out, tired, and very unnatural.
If you were born with black or brown hair, it is likely that you will have warmer and earthy undertones in your skin like yellow, brown, gold. Those with warmer undertones in their skin will tend to look better with a warmer hair colors. If you were born with blonde hair, you most likely have cooler skin undertones like blue, green, pink. You will tend to look better with cooler hair colors.
Blonde Hair and Platinum Blonde
From icy blonde or ash blonde all the way to platinum blonde, we are the blonding experts, no matter what your natural color really is! We know how to recreate the natural highlights and lowlights of natural looking blonde hair. We also carry blonde and blonde balayage hair extensions in a wide variety of lengths so that you can add dimension and length to your hair all at once.
Blonde Highlights & Lowlights
Your stylist may recommend one of several types of highlighting and color accent techniques to best complement your cut and style.
Foil highlights are a precise technique used to give face-framing highlights or blonde highlights throughout the hair. Lowlights add color, not lightener, to give your style some depth. And a combination of highlights and lowlights is a popular technique to give your color beautiful dimension.
Highlights should complement your natural color, but many women over-highlight their hair, so at our hair salon in Denver we often use lowlights to tone them down and temper the frosted look. Low-lights help bring out your skin tone and eye color. Blonde highlights are not everyone. For awesome looking color, stay within 2 shades of your natural color as a good rule of thumb.
Your color should never detract from your complexion, and too many highlights can make your skin look faded. A good tip is too add lowlights every third time you get your hair highlighted. They will help blend your highlights with your natural color, and you won’t have to go to the salon with dark roots every six weeks.
Champagne Blonde
This shade of blonde hair resembles the color of champagne—an elegant, light beige-blonde with a hint of shimmer. This color is often characterized by its delicate balance between warmth and coolness, giving it a refined, luminous quality.
Old Money Blonde
Old money blonde not a bling-y blonde, rather an understated shade that exudes sophistication and classic elegance. It’s typically a soft, muted blonde with subtle highlights and lowlights to create a nuanced, multi-dimensional effect. The key is to create a very polished, natural looking effect.
Pearl Blonde
Pearl blonde hair color is a pale, cool shade that mimics the iridescent sheen of pearls. This color has silvery undertones.
Natural Look of Babylights
Babylights are traditional foil highlights which are applied using a delicate technique to mimic the subtle, multi dimensional color seen on children’s hair. Babylights are natural looking and a low maintenance color option. Babylights are a great way to introduce color to your hair in a subtle way. They work best on fine hair, and can be applied to any color or length of hair. The babylights should be fine around the hairline and parting, with a gentle graduation of color that is lighter at the ends.
Foilayage Highlights
Ok, it's not a real word but what else would we call the technique that combines balayage and foils. It's balayage but with extra lifting time, thanks to the foils. More lift means lighter and brighter.
Teasylights
Another hybrid of balayage and foils, where sections of hair are teased before lightener is applied, accentuating hair from the mid length down. But don't get hung up on the lingo. Tell us what you like or show us your inspiration and we'll combine techniques if we need to.
Balayage & Handpainting of Highlights
Depending on your desired look, your stylist may suggest handpainting or Balayage, a freehand technique in which swatches of hair are sectioned and hand painted with a lightening agent. Blonde balayage is quite a popular look. We do a lot of blonde balayage with hair extensions too!

Money Piece (Face Framing Highlights)
Money piece refers to a section of hair around the face that is lighter and more luminous. This can be achieved with any number of highlight techniques, whether foils, babylights, or by attaching hair extensions. Whether you opt for a bold or subtle approach, the key is that this section of hair contrasts noticeably with the rest of the hair behind it.
Ashy Blonde Hair
The cool toned, ashy tones are popular now in Denver area whether, you have blonde hair or brunette. Beige blonde, platinum blonde, beach blonde and more.
Icy Blonde
If you love an icy blonde shade, especially if you have naturally dark hair, you know how hard it is to nail that perfect cool, white blonde tone. Even color, no overlapping, no warm tones. We love seeing client every couple of months to touch up her dark roots.
Smudge Root
Some clients don't like visible highlights up near the scalp or where the hair parts. A shadow root is a perfect solution. The shadow root look is super lived in with more base color showing. This look can be achieved with a root smudge service where a demi permanent color is applied. A root smudge service is not quite the same as a root touch up! After getting blonde highlights, some clients like to have a blended effect especially at the top of the head. A root smudge service is a demi permanent hair color applied to just the roots i order to give that shadow root look to highlighted hair. The demi permanent hair color is not intended to cover grey hair, rather to deepen the base color.
Bronde Hair – A Fusion of Blonde & Brown
Bronde is a low-maintenance, highlighted blend of blonde and brown tones which started in 2017 and is still going strong for 2018. This winning combo will warm up your skin tone, and will add dimension and life to your hair. Bronde hair, with its fusion of blonde and brown with some sun-kissed pieces around the face will allow you to keep a little bit of summer with you.
Caramel Blonde
Caramel blonde is a warm and rich shade that combines blonde and light brown, like a bronde. It often features golden, honey, or toffee undertones, giving it a multidimensional and radiant look. This color can range from a light, buttery blonde with hints of caramel to a deeper, more golden brown with blonde highlights. Caramel blonde is flattering on many skin tones, especially those with warm undertones, and can add depth and brightness to the hair.
Gray Hair Coverage
Covering resistant grey hairs or your having a root touch is a job best left to the skilled hair colorists. They can quickly get rid of unwanted white or grey hair and cover up your re-growth with precision application. This ensures no overlapping of color – only beautiful healthy, shiny looking hair! There's no shame in going gray and in fact this can be used to your advantage, even youngsters are coloring their hair grey in the name of fashion!
