Hair Color Trend: Honey Bronde

What is Honey Bronde?

Traditionally, brown and blonde have existed separately. On the one side, women who favor rich, natural brunette tones in their hair and on the other, blondes who prefer a lighter, brighter color result. Both can be beautiful and throughout their lifetime, many women will find themselves switching shades. But the Bronde hair color trend means you are no longer forced to choose between the two. The clue is in the name: Bronde is a hair color technique that fuses brown and blonde, to create a flattering, sun-kissed color result. The Honey Bronde trend features golden highlights using the balayage or handpainted technique for natural looking color blending. We headed to the HC Lookbook to pull examples of the Honey Bronde hair color trend to give you inspiration and showcase the great work by our stylists!

Is Honey Bronde for you?

If you’ve never had hair color before or are afraid of too drastic a change, Bronde could be the ideal technique to try. It gives a subtle, bright, incredibly natural result so it will enhance (rather than completely change) your look. Plus, it’s incredibly low maintenance so you don’t have to worry about re-coloring regularly – just when it suits you.

Bronde is ideally suited to warmer skin tones to enhance natural coloring and it can be very complimentary as you get older. With Bronde, blondes can enjoy an elegant color result with added depth and dimension, while brunettes have their look lifted and illuminated. It’s a perfect way for brunettes to get a bit of blonde in their hair without going platinum! Talk to your Hair Cuttery stylist about this look for you and bring images (maybe from the HC Lookbook) to share the results you’re looking for. Worried going lighter will damage your healthy hair? Then add on a Redken pH Bonder pre-treatment to protect your hair cuticle prior to lightening.
