Champagne Is a Hair-Color Trend We Don't See Fading

We love a glass of champagne to celebrate a special occasion (or just weekend brunch), but the bubbly drink has also made its way into salons—in the form of a gorgeous hair color. Hair hues inspired by drinks have been an ongoing trend, and champagne has more than proven its staying power. We credit its versatility, which keeps this effervescent color firmly out of the "just another blonde" category. Although it does have a blonde slant, champagne can work on light brunettes and brondes, too. Just like a fizzing glass of champagne, this striking shade, which often has baby pink or peach undertones, is shiny and classy—and we fully intend to keep celebrating it as long as we can. Scroll and see for yourself why champagne has earned a spot in our hair-color canon.

It's not just the Instagram-perfect waves that make this style sing. Hand-painted balayage yields a shiny look with plenty of dimension. Since your roots will stay closer to your natural shade, this is an easy way to tiptoe toward top-to-bottom champagne.

Start with a beachy champagne blonde base and add platinum highlights for a look that screams summer. Don't worry if it's not actually warm outside: Champagne won't wash you out in the winter, since it lacks the ashy undertones that can make a paler complexion look dull.

Champagne Bronde

May we suggest calling this silky bronde "rosé champagne"? Hints of blush mingle beautifully with champagne strands for a barely-there pop of pink. Don't be surprised if you feel a little bubblier with this playful style.
