1. All over Beach Blonde Highlights

All over Beach Blonde Highlights This may not seem like one of the most exciting hair color ideas out there, but I like that these golden blonde highlights aren’t the same as the usual bleached blonde look that is so often associated with blonde hair. These highlights are a deep, more caramel like blonde that offer a deeper color hue than other streaky blonde highlights. I especially think this would look great for the beach and other types of summer vacations. Blondes don’t have to have all the fun, but with these pretty locks, how could you not have a blast and feel gorgeous too?

The caramel tones enhance natural sun-kissed vibes, making it look as though you've spent your days basking on the shore without the harsh contrast of traditional platinum highlights. This look brings warmth to your complexion and effortlessly transitions from a laid-back beach day to a chic evening out. Whether you have a lob or cascading waves, these golden touches promise to add dimension and movement to your locks, encouraging the light to dance through your strands with every step you take. It’s the perfect way to brighten your look while keeping things subtly sophisticated.

2. Montana Auburn Red

Montana Auburn Red I’m not about to go this dramatic and turn into a redhead this year, but I love this fresh idea for summer highlights. Emma Stone made red hair hot two years ago, but this hair style differs in the fact that it offers a variety of colors and highlights instead of one simple hue. If you have lovely light skin, this is one shade you should try! It would also work well on naturally tanned skin tones. Something about red hair tones always intrigued me, but I have the wrong skin tone so have always shied away. If you can flaunt this gorgeous look, go for it!

i am getting this

i love #4

I'm naturally a dark brown but have been dying my hair black for years. Last summer I went blonde, and I loved it, but the root touch ups got annoying. I've gone back to my dark shade. Now when I want to switch things up, I'm all about the extensions. I don't damage my hair with all those chemicals and its not permanent!! "Clip in and clip out" It's something that works for me.

Some nice ideas but this list is better suited to brown hair or blonde hair. As a natural redhead a lot of the highlight ideas wouldn't work on my hair without dying it brown first!

Omg all the hair I wanted lol dying my hair red yes try Blong already now red lol:)

I've recently done #6 to my hair and looks fantastic! Really glamorous Yet simple

I was thinking and hoping this article would've given more exciting and drastic ideas, not just dark brown hair and brown highlights. *yawn*
