Blonde is such a complex tone as is with the ability to take on warm, cool or neutral finishes. Once blonde is achieved, the palette is prepped to go down any path you choose and this season we’re seeing the addition of subtle fashion shades like a hint of pink or peach, or a dash of purple become more popular than ever. If you’re looking to add a hint of color to your blonde, read on to see how this can be accomplished with Wella Professionals!

How To Prep Your Blonde

Adding hints of pastel tones can be created on any hair color, it all comes down to how you prep the hair. For pastels specifically, the color performs best when hair is lifted to a very light level — think level 10. This allows any color you place on it after to show up true-to-tone. This is why it is best to rely on Wella Professionals Blondorplex to pre-lighten the hair. With a bond builder built into the formula, you’re able to achieve up to 9 levels of lift and 97% less breakage. Additionally, with anti-yellow molecules, it combats discoloration as you lift to reveal a neutral base to apply your shade to.

Choose The Right Toner

After achieving the desired lift, using toners that are designed to create the pastel shade you’re looking for with long-lasting color is key.
