Silver-blonde hair is a unique hair color that fuses a pale blonde with silvery undertones. Similar to platinum blonde, the silvery/ashy tone tends to be deeper and more cool-toned, while platinum remains a bright true white. Silver hair creates a metallic hue that shimmers.

Clearly, a lightened base color is essential if you wish to achieve a flawless shimmering silver-blonde mane. A regular appointment with your colorist for root touch-ups is also necessary to prevent your roots from showing, and having a good purple shampoo will help maintain your platinum aspirations for a longer period. What better way to step into the realm of blondes than with this icy avant-garde hair color?
