Blonde to Light Brown Hair
If you’re a blonde, you have the freedom to effortlessly transition into a light brown hue without stepping foot outside. I’m particularly fond of Wella’s T18 ash blonde shade for the summer season – it’s playful! However, as fall approaches, I find myself craving a richer, deeper tone, so I opt for a darker brunette color. For those curious about the process, I’ve prepared a comprehensive guide that delves into the ins and outs of going from blonde to brown at home.
From selecting the perfect shade of hair dye to showcasing before-and-after pictures, you’ll find it all within these pages. So, if you’re ready to embark on this transformative journey, let’s dive in!
Choosing a Hair Dye Color to Go from Blonde to Light Brown Hair
While many women are left feeling unhappy with their hair color after attempting to dye it at home, I believe that the John Frieda color treatment is a much better option. For blonde women who do insist on using a hair dye, I would strongly recommend opting for a slightly darker shade of blonde instead of a brown dye. This approach allows you to experiment with a new look without fully committing to a drastic change.
If you find that you’re not entirely satisfied with the result, it’s always possible to go even darker in the future. By taking this more conservative approach, you can avoid the regret that often comes with making a hasty decision.
How to go from blonde to brown hair at Home (DIY)
Transforming your locks from blonde to brown can be achieved with ease, even from the comfort of your own home. The process involves one of two primary approaches: utilizing a hair treatment specifically designed for this purpose, such as John Frieda’s Brilliant Brunette formula, or opting for a temporary or permanent hair dye. Both methods offer a straightforward solution for achieving the desired results.
Use John Frieda Brilliant Brunette to Go from Blonde to Light Brown Hair
To achieve a brunette look without committing to permanent hair dye, you can opt for the John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Visibly Deeper Color Treatment. This innovative product lasts for two to three weeks and is surprisingly easy to use. Simply apply it to slightly damp hair, leave it on for 5-10 minutes, and then rinse it out. For a more detailed guide, check out this how-to video by Very Easy Makeup on YouTube, which provides step-by-step instructions.
If you prefer a deeper color, you can even leave the treatment on for up to 15 minutes. As someone who’s tried it myself, I can attest that it’s a great way to achieve a new look without making a long-term commitment.
Use a Semi-Permanent Hair Dye (At Home DIY for Blonde to Brown)
For a brown hair dye that retains its color for an extended period, consider using a semi-permanent option. This type of dye typically lasts around a month with regular shampooing, assuming you wash your hair every other day. In addition to their longer-lasting properties, temporary hair dyes are also gentler on your locks. One popular choice among women is the Clairol Natural Instincts 8G Medium Golden Blonde – Sunflower semi-permanent dye, which has received favorable reviews.
This particular shade, Dark Blonde/Light Brown Semi-Permanent Hair Dye, can be found on Amazon for those interested in giving it a try.
