Try This Coloring Technique to Look Naturally Baby-Blonde The trick: Get golden highlights.
Why: Blondes may not have more fun, but they do look younger, at least according to men. A study shows that men perceive women with lighter hair as being younger than they are. Experts believe this has an evolutionary basis: Because hair naturally darkens as you get older, young people are most likely to be naturally blonde.
Try: Replacing the ombré color trend that swept the beauty world: babylights. Picture super, superthin highlights, hand-painted from root to tip in the balayage style, resulting in born-with-it, baby blonde color. The thinness of these highlights make regrowth look less obvious, which in turns makes the color look naturally yours -- unlike single-process color and foil highlights, which create obvious-looking contrast at the roots when hair grows.
