Things to Consider Before Becoming a New Blonde

09. 30. 2021

Blonde is a gorgeous hair color with a plethora of shades to choose from to complement every skin tone, style, look you want. If you’re not a natural blonde and thinking of seeing if blondes really do have more fun, there are a few things to consider before going down that road. At Suede Salon, our hair color experts will help you choose a shade of blonde that works best for you.
 

Current color base. The darker your current color base is, chances are the more processing that will need to be done to reach the shade of blonde you want. Multiple sessions may be needed to ensure your hair is in its best possible condition. 
 

Your hair’s condition. At your consultation, your Suede stylist can assess your hair and let you know what is best for the health of your hair. If your hair has previous damage and the strands are weak, your colorist can recommend a professional conditioning treatment or home hair care treatments to do at home to strengthen your hair before the coloring process. If you have damaged hair, you might need to look for a darker shade of blonde instead of a light shade that requires excessive processing. 
 

Skin tone. Your skin tone needs to be taken into consideration when choosing your new blonde hue. Your hair colorist will consider your skin tone and help you determine a blonde shade that will complement the tone of your skin. 
 

Your new shade. Everyone has their own impression of what blonde should look like. It would be helpful to bring some pictures to your consultation appointment so your stylist can get a better idea of what you want. Blonde has many tones varying from warm to cool, and sometimes different shades need to be mixed to get the color you desire. Our Suede stylists are specially trained to mix colors to find just the right shade for you. 
 

Protect your new shade. Once you decide to go blonde and have that perfect new shade, it’s important to protect your hair color with professional haircare products designed to keep your blonde locks vibrant and healthy for as long as possible between touch-ups. Before you leave, you can purchase these products and then can order them online to ensure your hair remains soft, manageable, and healthy.
