Blondes

Baby lights refers to a hair colouring technique that involves adding very subtle, fine highlights to the hair, usually around the face or throughout the strands. The goal is to create a soft, natural, sun-kissed effect, giving the appearance of hair that has lightened naturally over time. The technique is often used to enhance the overall colour of the hair without creating a stark contrast, making it perfect for those who want a more understated, gentle look. Baby lights are typically done with foils, and the highlights are often placed closer to the roots for a fresh, natural appearance.

Are Blondes Still Trending?

Blonde hair has long been a popular choice and remains one of the most sought-after hair colours worldwide. Its popularity can be attributed to several factors, including cultural influences, celebrity trends, and personal style choices.

Historically, blonde hair has been associated with youth, beauty, and lightness in many Western cultures, partly due to the representation of blonde characters in movies, advertisements, and media. Icons like Marilyn Monroe, Brigitte Bardot, and more recently, celebrities like Beyoncé and Taylor Swift, have played a significant role in maintaining blonde hair's allure.

Blonde hair is versatile, offering a range of shades—from platinum to golden, ash to honey—allowing people with different skin tones to find a blonde hue that complements them. It also pairs well with most cololuring techniques like highlights, balayage, and baby lights, making it an adaptable and timeless choice.

Recently, blonde hair has seen a resurgence in popularity, with modern techniques like ‘cool blonde’ shades, which offer a more ashy or silvery look. This trend has been further supported by social media influencers and platforms like Instagram, where unique blonde shades are often showcased.

Overall, blonde hair's popularity is fuelled by its adaptability, cultural associations, and the timeless appeal it carries across different eras.
