A caramel blonde hair color is a shade between blonde and brunette. Brimming with shine, a caramel-blonde hue is ideal for transitioning from dark to light hair.

Caramel blonde has many variations. From beachy, sun-kissed to chestnut, the stunning color is taking Hollywood by storm! Cleo Wade, Jasmine Tooke, and Jessica Biel amped up the hype on this warm-toned, creamy shade of blonde! This earthy shade looks stunning on warm skin tones alike.

Linda Gattineri creates beautiful manes with these golden caramel tones. These are her top pieces of advice when getting a caramel color. “Talk about your hair history with your stylist and describe the journey. Do a strand test to see if you need one or many services to lighten your hair?”

Linda recommends Kente Bond Shampoo and Conditioner by Seven to strengthen the hair. She also uses Oi All In One Milk by Davines to detangle, moisturize, and protect your hair from heat.

Brassiness is your number one concern when wearing caramel hair because of its warm tones. “After six weeks, these tones tend to fade. It’s ideal for getting a gloss and conditioning treatment. Do this to add back the faded tones and keep the hair looking healthy.”

Take a sweet plunge into this luscious hue. These pictures of trendy caramel blonde hair colors might be the one for you!
