35 Gorgeous Hairstyles That'll Convince You to Go Blonde
From platinum to bronde and everything in between.
Peach cobbler. Dark cold brew. Nordic blonde. Anyone that’s spent more than five minutes on Pinterest has seen hair color trends like these: eye-catching, but prone to fading from favor faster than sun-in.
If you’re itching to switch up your hair color and want a style with staying power, go with a classic blonde. These light shades are perennially on-point and they act as an instant illuminator—so you can drop the highlighter. There’s also a take on blonde for everyone: warm honey shades a la Gigi Hadid have a sun-kissed vibe, while ashy, cool tones offer an edgier look.
With so many ways to go blonde, where should you start? From crisp champagne to pink-infused platinum, we’ve compiled the best variations of blonde modeled by our favorite celebrities. Scroll through the 35 looks ahead for your favorite, then take it straight to your hairdresser.
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift's blended blonde lends her hair an extra bit of dimension. For an added pop of color, she's also been known to dye her ends pink or blue.
Gigi Hadid
Golden blondes like Gigi Hadid are a solid starting point for anyone who's new to honey tones. Hers has the characteristic brightness of a lighter blonde, but its darker undertones require fewer touch-up appointments.
Margot Robbie
Ashy lowlights from roots to mid-lengths lend Robbie's shade ample dimension.
Reese Witherspoon
From Legally Blonde to Big Little Lies, Witherspoon's sandy blonde has stood the test of time with its relaxed glow.
Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus's golden blonde adds the perfect level of dimension to her glossy curls.
Beyonce
We're still not over this killer Queen B look—and highlighted caramel hair color—from the 2016 Met Gala.
Lady Gaga
The Oscar-winner's Met Gala blonde combined the best of this year's hair trends: a blunt bob accessorized with tiny hair clips. (And because it's Gaga, her clips are made of hair.)
Cara Delevigne
Delevigne's current hairstyle is a case study for simple, chic blonde. Her ends have a platinum sheen while a hint of natural color peeks through at her roots.
Rita Ora
Not ready to commit to an all-out platinum, but still seeking a cooler blonde? Try an ashy shade with a root melt, like Rita Ora's current style.
Zoe Kravitz
A short and punky cropped hairstyle looks extra fashion-y when dyed an icy platinum blonde.
Zendaya
This is very clearly a wig—but that doesn't make Zendaya's haircut or platinum hair color any less gorgeous. If you're looking for a total hair transformation, this is the route to go.
