Changing your hair color to dark blonde hair is a decision you need to be sure of before going down that road. You first need to research how dying the hair will affect it, and then the perfect shade of blonde for the hair. Your skin tone and hair texture will have a lot of say on the shade of blonde you dye the hair. 

Once you have identified the perfect shade, the other challenge is to get a good stylist. You can ask your friends for referrals and choose one who is good at their job and will deliver the look you are looking forward to getting. This requires you to get a skilled hair colour specialist who will listen to your requirements keenly. Besides getting the perfect dye and a hair colorist, consider these factors before going fully dark blonde hair. Take a look. 

  1. Consider Your Skin Tone

If you’re not sure you can handle the commitment of having dyed hair, opt for temporary but high-quality, authentic human hair extensions that blend well with your natural hair, from the color down to the texture. This will make styling them easier.

However, beware that it is not guaranteed that your hair will look exactly like the one in the picture. When deciding on the dye shade, you can also consider your eye color.

  1. The Hair Cut

Your current haircut will also influence the shade of dark blonde hair to choose. For instance, you could dye a different shade if you have a fringe from a person who has straight or curly hair. According to LoveHairStyles, if you already have a fringe, consider cutting the hair into a medium length before dying it. Cutting it afterward will have the stylist tampering with the hair highlights. 

Cutting the hair before dying will also enable you to highlight it from the roots. This is a helpful tip for people who want to get fringes. Also, having dyed hair with fringe will require regular maintenance because the fringe exposes your roots, and re-growths will be more visible. 

  1. Your Budget And Lifestyle

Besides your skin tone and haircut, another essential factor to consider is your lifestyle. Telling the stylist about your lifestyle will enable them to advise you accordingly. For example, they will know how often you should visit the salon and what you need to keep your hair in that shade. They will advise you on the best shade of blonde to dye the hair.

Dying the hair means more salon visits to retouch and maintain it, and this will be costly. It is, therefore, important to also consider your budget to enable you to make regular visits to the salon. You might also be required to buy some products to keep the hair healthy and add shine, and this will need you to spend some money. Remember that when it comes to hair colors, the maintenance cost can be more expensive than the initial cost of getting your hair done. So, maintenance costs are a key factor to consider before choosing any hair dye. 

  1. Your Wardrobe

You might need to change your wardrobe here and there, but this doesn’t mean that you do a complete decluttering. You can add some pieces to match your hair with the outfits. Discussing your closet with the colorist will enable them to advise you on the better shades of dark blonde hair. This also includes your makeup accessories like your lipsticks. Some lipsticks will look different with the shade of blonde you dye. 

  1. The Timescale

The time you want to have your hair color will also determine the shade of blonde to dye. The colorist will be in a better position to advise you on this. Changing from black to dark blonde hair can be dramatic and needs time to decide. Consider doing a few visits to the salon until you are sure of what you want. If you feel you might need a change before six months are over, tell your colorist.
