Understanding the different skin tones
Skin undertones are divided into warm, cool, and neutral. Warm undertones often range from peachy to golden and yellow, though they can sometimes give the skin a slightly sallow appearance. Conversely, cool undertones have pink or bluish hues, while consumers with neutral undertones have an undertone that is closer to their actual skin tone.
However, businesses must remember that the consumer’s undertone differs from skin color. For example, even the fairest skin can have warm undertones, while the darker skin might have a cool undertone.
Top 10 blonde hair color ideas for every skin tone
1. Beige platinum

Kim Kardashian has a knack for making any hair color work, from natural dark brown to eye-catching beige platinum. This blonde color perfectly balances warm and cool tones, making it compatible with any complexion and skin tone. Beige platinum wigs, extensions, and dyes are perfect for women who like trendy and versatile looks.
2. Sandy bronde (blonde + brunette)

Think of the sandy bronde shade as a touch darker than the iconic Barbie blonde—and no one wore it better than Margo Robbie. However, sandy bronde can look fantastic on almost everyone except those with very cool skin tones.
Sandy bronde wigs and extensions will appeal to those who prefer a natural look with less upkeep. This color’s low maintenance will also attract those hoping to dye their hair, as sandy bronde transitions smoothly as it grows out, giving consumers more time before they need a touch-up.
3. Dirty blonde

Taylor Swift has worn many shades of blonde over the years, but this natural dirty blonde stands out for its subtle, understated vibe. This ashy blonde works beautifully on consumers with fair skin tones (like Taylor), adding depth while complimenting their looks. Dirty Blond is the natural, elegant look that consumers can rock without feeling too bold.
4. Golden sombré

Golden sombré offers a dreamy balance between brunette and blonde. This unique color creates a dynamic and universally flattering look that is eye-catching on nearly any skin tone. Take Amanda Seyfried, for example—this shade added a soft glow to her skin and enhanced her features with depth and dimension.
5. Lighter mushroom blonde

Finding the perfect balance between brightness and ashiness is possible, and Salma Hayek’s hair color is a prime example. Lighter mushroom blonde is ideal for most skin tones as it avoids brassiness while maintaining depth and dimension. However, this shade is the best choice for those with rosy undertones, as it might highlight redness unflatteringly.
Since lighter mushroom blonde is a high-maintenance color, consumers will have a better time rocking this shade through wigs and extensions. If ladies still want to dye, businesses should recommend they use a strand test first to see if their hair will hold up well to the process.
6. Gold ash

Cardi B proved anyone can rock golden ash hair, making the shade incredibly versatile and easy to wear. This neutral shade is beautifully balanced, making it an excellent match for various skin tones. Gold ash looks stunning on darker skin with warm undertones but can also work well on fairer skin with olive undertones.
However, consumers may need to do some things to keep this color looking fresh. Businesses can recommend shampoo and conditioner specifically designed for colored hair to those looking for hair dye in this shade. This helps preserve the tone and depth between touch-ups.
7. Whipped butter

The internet went wild when Billie Eilish switched from her iconic green-and-black hair to a warm, slightly yellow platinum blonde. However, getting this shade wasn’t a quick process—it took hours in the salon. So, consumers should be ready for the commitment if they want something similar.
But that’s only for women who want a complete transformation. Those who don’t like the commitment can’t go wrong with wigs and extensions in whipped butter shades. This blonde shade looks fantastic on all consumers with fair skin tones.
8. Golden sand

Imagine the perfect hair color for someone dreaming of a sun-soaked island getaway. That’s where this blonde shade comes in. Businesses can offer golden sand blonde (a Zendaya favorite), a shade that blends the sun’s warm glow with the cool neutrality of beach sand.
This refreshing, sun-kissed look made hair expert Klein give the shade the “golden sand” name. More importantly, golden sand is a winner for consumers with olive complexions like Zendaya. The shade is also versatile enough for wigs and hair dyes so retailers can target anyone looking for a radiant beach-inspired look.
9. Beige

This soft, pale yellow shade is a fantastic choice for customers with olive or deeper skin tones. According to hair expert Klein, Amandla Stenberg’s hair color is a perfect example of beige done right. The color’s warmth beautifully highlights her skin’s rich undertones—and consumers with similar skin tones can pull it off, too.
This beige hue is stunning for textured or voluminous wigs (dyes can also work for consumers with the hair type). The hair’s natural movement and shape make the color stand out even more, creating an eye-catching and flattering look.
10. Honey blonde

Sydney Sweeny’s honey-blonde hair is a stunning blend of gold, beige, and nearly white tones. This combination pairs beautifully with her beige skin tone, giving her a natural, youthful appearance. But while Sweeny killed the look, honey blonde looks flattering on all undertones and most complexions (from light to olive and dark).
This hair color’s darker roots seamlessly tie together the different blonde shades, making it an easy choice for anyone seeking a natural yet sophisticated style. However, consumers who go for dye instead of wigs must keep this shade looking fresh with touch-ups from hair gloss (a great bundling or upselling opportunity).
