The options are truly endless when it comes to hair color and lowlights.

For example, platinum blondes might try some golden brown lowlights to add dimension to their light hair. This will give it a subtle look that isn’t immediately noticeable. If you’re just looking for a natural effect, however, the best place to start is by choosing a shade that’s only one or two tones away from your natural color (or whatever your base color is). Blondes have a wider range of tones to choose from and can create some pretty shocking looks with their lowlights, including rainbow-colored streaks. They can be subtle or dramatic, depending on your preference.īlondes generally have more options with lowlights than brunettes, who may have trouble telling the difference between highlights and lowlights. Lowlights are strategically placed streaks of darker hair color that are applied to a lighter base color. If you’re going blond in your hair color, lowlights can help you achieve a more natural look.
