Like any hair color, though, it can be perfectly customized to flatter you.

When in doubt, consult with your colorist who has a wealth of knowledge about these things.

Together, you could come up with the perfect hair plan.

For this look, youll start with a lighter blonde base and then incorporate warm caramel throughout.

The golden caramel hues are more subtle here, but still add a nice sense of dimension.

Medium Caramel Blonde

Another option is to choose a balance between dark and light blonde hair.

Dark, Warm Caramel Blonde

Embrace both a darker blonde base and ultra-warm caramel tones.

This beautifully placed balayage has a copper-inspired feel toward the top that melts into honeyed ends.

Its a modern and classic aesthetic.

He adds, It can add a sun-kissed and radiant glow to their overall appearance.

Cavalcante calls this cool-leaning caramel blonde hair color a chic and sophisticated look.

This approach fuses both cool highlights and golden-y lowlights for a shimmering, multidimensional effect.
