35+ Copper and Blonde Balayage Ideas to Rock This Season

Not a fan of global, harsh, or high-maintenance hair color treatments?

A balayage is your best friend. Originating in France, ‘balayage’ has its roots in the French word ‘balayer’ which means to paint or sweep.

The balayage hair coloring method is exactly that, creating natural sweeps of color to add dimension and a naturally sun-kissed look to your hair. 

The talk of the town and the latest trending color combination is a copper and blonde balayage. Perfect for those confused between icy blonde and mundane brown shades, copper and blonde balayage gives a natural sun-tinted look to your locks, as if you’ve just come back from a long beach holiday.

Understanding Copper and Blonde Balayage 

A copper and blonde balayage usually involves dyeing light blonde and warm bronze shades on various sections of the hair.

This creates a balanced and natural look. Usually, the strands that frame and surround the face along with a few sections on the surface of the hair are dyed blonde.

This helps create the sun-kissed aesthetic that is perfect for the summertime! This placement varies according to hair texture and length. 

Our favorite part of this copper and blonde look is its versatility and ability to flatter various skin tones.

As it combines shades from both cool and warm color families, a copper and blonde balayage is likely to create an eye-catching look for beauties of all skin tones and hair types. 

Styling and Maintenance Tips 

A copper and blonde balayage looks stunning when styles.

Opt for braids that showcase the beautiful color combination or try elegant updos. If you’re looking for something more casual, go for loose, beachy waves to truly flaunt your gorgeous balayage. 

While the upsides are gorgeous locks, the downside is dull and limp hair unless maintained with regular hair care.

To keep your balayage looking lush, cut out sulfate shampoos and conditioners, schedule deep conditioning treatments, and plan salon visits for glossing treatments and regular color maintenance.

Make sure you understand the treatment through an initial discussion with your hair stylist before going all in.  

If you are looking for a contemporary hair color, a copper and blonde balayage is the way to go. When the temperature rises, so does the popularity of this sizzling style.

Bid goodbye to dull hair days and say  hello to this radiant look that will make heads turn. Pair this with gold or silver jewelry and you are runway-ready!
