Everywhere I look, it seems like people are growing out their highlights into a more natural "subtle ombre" look. I feel like now whenever I see a woman with a full head of blonde highlights, it looks dated, fake, and aging. Are blonde highlights out? |
No |
I don't think you're actually looking everywhere op. |
Yes I think they are out. |
I don't know what you mean by subtle ombré. Can you post a pic? I do have blonde highlights but I think they are pretty subtle. My colorist does some fancy thing that she talks a lot about to make it blend subtly--I can really remember because I don't pay that much attention but it looks good. |
Depends on the person and their coloring. |
The dishwater white blonde look has been out for a while. Not nearly as many adults have this color, as claim to have it. |
It's been out for awhile..unless you live in Vegas or are a stripper. |
I think people are definitely gravitating more towards balayage than highlights these days. The "Laguna Beach" blonde is definitely out. No one wants that dreaded line of demarcation when blonde is growing out!! |
Can you post pictures? I think you can do ombre only if you are very careful about the rest of your look all the time. Otherwise you look like your roots are growing out. I'm definitely seeing more dark underneath and more subtle highlights and less dishwater blonde like the poster above mentioned.
A lot of dark underneath, but still the blonde highlights. So I don't think they're going anywhere. The dark underneath looks nice and is the opposite of the roots-grown-out look! ![]() ![]() |
Agree! Dated look. It also makes women look older and trashy. |
All the upper class ladies in the Baltimore suburbs still do the blond highlight thing from what I see. |
Ombre is out. |
Exactly. Ombre has been out for a while. |
There is your answer - they are doing it in Baltimore so it's out. I am from Baltimore so can say this, hon. |
