30 Golden Blonde Hair Ideas for the Modern Day Goldilocks
Don’t fret, gals, the modern reincarnation of golden blonde hair is anything but a brassy yellow shade gleaming throughout your mane and making you look like someone who’s suffering from jaundice. Actually, the trending color is a highly customizable mix of warm and neutral tones, which can go lighter or darker and warmer or cooler to perfectly embrace various skin tones, eye colors, and hair levels.
Surely, warm tones naturally sit well with neutral, peachy, and yellowish complexions, but a professional colorist can seamlessly adapt them to bluish and pink skin undertones as well.
