25 Best Blonde Hair Color Ideas to Take to the Salon

Cameron Diaz looks beautiful in any shade of blonde, but we love this buttery hue for blondes looking to go a little darker in the fall or winter.

Nicole Kidman's signature strawberry blonde shade is ideal for anyone with fair skin. Whether you're a redhead looking to go a little lighter or a blonde wanting to go warmer, this is a great way to go.

Make the whole place shimmer with a dirty blonde shade played up by the subtlest of baby lights. This color would look good with any cut, but it does wonders for Taylor Swift's bob with bangs.

Brighten things up Scarlett Johansson style by adding light blonde highlights to the front of your hair. A darker root keeps this pretty shade looking soft.

Blake Lively's gorgeous shade brings to mind fields of golden wheat. This is a lovely hue for anyone with dark brown hair who wants to go lighter, but not too light.

Margot Robbie's character Barbie is known for her platinum blonde hair color, but when doing press for the hit movie, the actress opted for a more natural hue. Celebrity hair colorist Jacob Schwartz explained the choice, saying, "I really wanted Margot’s blonde to embody Barbie on the red carpet without it being so obvious and over bleached. When the light hits her hair I wanted to sparkle and bounce like those legendary blonde supermodel and actresses of the '90s."

Want to go platinum but not white platinum? Take a cue from Cate Blanchett's statement-making shade featuring just a touch of warmth.

Emma Stone is known for her signature red hair but did you know the actress is naturally blonde? It's no wonder this warm platinum blonde shade looks so lovely on her. But even she was wary of going too blonde. Her colorist Tracey Cunningham said,“We made it so blonde that she actually wanted lowlights in it."

If you want to go lighter but don't want all the maintenance that comes with it, try a Balayage like Chrissy Teigen. It allows for a sun-kissed, natural-looking hair color and ensures your roots won't look too noticeable when they're growing in.

Do you have blue eyes like Emily Blunt (or any other lighter eye color)? Play them up with a cool ash blonde shade like this one. You can either go solid or get some soft highlights!

Another way to experiment with ash blonde is by dying your roots that cooler shade. It's a great way to bring dimension to platinum blonde hair.

Reese Witherspoon's pretty medium blonde shade is like the Goldilocks of hair colors: It's not too dark, it's not too light—it's just right!

If you love Giselle's look above but want something a little more subtle, take this picture of Michelle Pfeiffer to your hair salon. It's a similar style but softer and more blended.

For a sun-kissed look that's not too light, take a page from Gisele Bündchen's style book and opt for bold, face-framing dark golden blonde highlights.

We've come a long way from the frosted hair of the '90s! Sharon Stone's tousled pixie cut looks so elegant with flashes of blonde in the front.

Laura Dern's caramel blonde hair is so rich and warm. It's also a good stepping stone shade for anyone on their way to a lighter blonde look.

Stay true to your natural color by opting for an ombré blonde look like Drew Barrymore's. It's a great way to go lighter without too many visits to the salon.

A honey blonde hue is both timeless and universally flattering. And in Beyoncé's case, the shade perfectly complements her eye color!
