7: Honeycomb Dimension
Create fascinating depth with a mixture of golden tones painted throughout your dark base. This multi-dimensional approach uses various honey shades for an intricate, natural effect.
Ask your stylist to incorporate both lighter and deeper honey tones to create variation and depth. The result resembles natural honeycomb with its complex color pattern.
This technique adds incredible texture and movement to your hair, making even simple styles look more dynamic.
8: Sun-Kissed Curls
Enhance your natural curls with strategically placed honey blonde highlights.
This technique illuminates your curl pattern and creates beautiful dimension throughout.
Request that your stylist paint the highlights vertically to follow your curl pattern.
The brightest pieces should hit at the midpoint and ends of each curl for the most natural effect.
The contrast between dark and light creates depth that makes your curls appear more defined and voluminous.
9: Butterscotch Blend
Create a seamless transition with butterscotch tones between your dark base and honey blonde ends.
This warmer mid tone creates a beautiful bridge between cool dark hair and golden ends.
Ask your stylist to incorporate three distinct tones for the most natural-looking dimension.
The butterscotch mid tone prevents any harsh lines between dark and light.
This technique creates a rich, expensive-looking color melt that flatters virtually all skin tones.
10: Twilight Honey Balayage
Embrace contrast with very dark roots that dramatically transition to luminous honey blonde ends.
This high-contrast approach creates a striking yet sophisticated effect.
Request that your stylist maintain your natural dark shade at the roots, gradually introducing honey tones from mid-shaft to ends.
The careful placement creates a beautiful light-to-dark effect.
This bold technique creates a head-turning look that still grows out beautifully thanks to the blended application.
11: Golden Hour Glow
Capture the magic of sunset light with warm honey tones concentrated where the light naturally hits.
This technique creates a radiant effect that looks like permanent golden hour lighting.
Ask your stylist to focus the brightest pieces around your face and the outer layers of your hair.
This strategic placement creates a natural halo effect.
The warm honey tones add a flattering glow that enhances your complexion and makes your hair look perpetually bathed in perfect lighting.
12: Teasylights Technique
Add incredible dimension with this specialized technique that combines teasing and foiling.
Teasylights create a soft, diffused transition between your dark base and honey blonde pieces.
Request this specific technique by name—your stylist will tease your hair before applying lightener, creating a soft, graduated effect at the roots.
The result is perfectly blended highlights.
This method creates highlights that grow out beautifully with no harsh lines, extending the time between salon visits.
13: Honey-Dipped Ends
Keep it simple with dark hair throughout most of your length, transitioning to honey blonde just at the very ends.
This minimal approach adds interest without a dramatic color change.
Ask your stylist for a more concentrated application just on the bottom few inches of your hair.
This creates the effect of having “dipped” your ends in honey.
This low-commitment option lets you experiment with blonde tones while maintaining your dark hair identity.
14: Tiger Eye Effect
Draw inspiration from the semi-precious stone with a combination of bronze, caramel, and honey tones painted throughout your dark base.
This multi-dimensional approach creates incredible depth.
