This is one of our favorite brunette hair ideas. Long sandy tresses look as good in real life as they do in the photos! The glazed golden brown and blonde highlights give the hair the sought-after sense of length, volume, and depth.
One way of bringing out the best in ash brown hair is choosing a really light blonde balayage. These long wavy tresses add dimension and seem to go on forever as they flow and cascade down the back. This color combo is gorgeous, what can we say!

Soft brown hues are a good base for blonde highlights if you want to achieve a noticeable yet more discreet low-contrast ombre. The brown in this example adds depth and body by setting off the blonde ends, making the long wavy tresses look healthy and nourished.

Wavy hair can never be TOO long when it’s tinted with fantastic shades of chocolate, caramel, and golden blonde. Let your multi-tonal locks flow freely to show off the enchanting medley of shades that complement each other so well.

What do you get when you mix the cool tones of espresso-brown hair with copper and blonde lightening effects? A sassy shoulder-length lob that frames the face and can be worn down and loose, or up in an attractive ponytail! An excellent idea for medium brown tones.
@prettylittleombre
Luxurious golden blonde hues are a whole new way to transform your average brunette shade into a new and eye-catching color. A picture can say a thousand words, so make sure you bring the photos of the hair ideas you like to your next salon appointment.
@askforamy
We are sure that toasted almond is the best choice for girls with warm skin tones. This warm, rich hue with myriads of honey, caramel, and blonde highlights looks chic, while a trendy wavy ‘do combined with darker roots solves the volume thing.
@garageacibadem
This is a good example of how you can keep your natural brown hair color and make it rock with the help of warm caramel balayage highlights. It’s the right shade for ladies who have a thin hair type: multiple warm and glossy caramel latte hues do a perfect job of adding extra volume.
@colorbykianna
If you want to stick to warm tones of brown, consider an overall blending of chocolate browns and honey. Placed correctly, they won’t result in an overly sweet combo, just enough to set off your tan.
@gretawagner_
When dyeing your hair bright blonde is too much for cool climates, but you can’t imagine your locks without changes, keep it simple with an almost all-over color. The long waves feature touches of cinnamon sugar – just enough to keep this color job interesting and engaging.
@hairgoalsbyhannah
Long, drab, and boring hair color can be livened up and energized with almost blonde waves that spring out from the medium chocolate base. Wear it with piece-y waves or blow it out completely straight.
@eunicekimhair
The long highlighted light brown hair is so appealing because it reminds us of warm and breezy beach days all year round. Shiny and touchable, these light brown locks are going to look as ravishing in an updo as it does in loose, relaxed curls.
@mane_ivy
Bring a photo of this light auburn coloring with money pieces to your stylist if you want to get a trendy but at the same time low-maintenance look. Natural dark roots and an out-of-this-world mixture of browns, lighter and darker, warm and cold, made us fall in love with this color. Light brown is enormously enhanced by the texture that gives a lot to this cool look, adding volume and dimension.
@isthatpat
Blonde waves make this look absolutely awesome. We love the way the dark roots melt into golden brown that fades into blonde hair at the bottom. These shades are perfect for girls with olive skin tone and blue eye color.
@oladementeva
If you want to change your natural light brown shade but going all-in isn’t your cup of tea, consider getting a sandy beige balayage. Paired with the carefree wavy texture it will give you a cool beach vibe. And yes, just have another look at how beautifully darker roots and soft romantic tresses frame the girl’s face, making her skin tone stand out.
@oladementeva
Warm browns with sizzling copper undertones make straight thick hair shimmer and shine. The golden pecan balayage is a wonderful way to showcase your gorgeous, healthy mane.
@cris_cobucci
If you’re a happy owner of thick dark brown locks but can’t imagine your hair without dyeing, you can consider getting cocoa butter highlights and curling your hair in loose waves. Together, they are terrific at making darker browns look more voluminous.
@un.rooted
When you’re in love with your brunette locks and don’t want to change up your natural color too much, one way to go is getting soft mocha touches through the ends. This shade of brunette is perfect for cool skin tones.
@hairbymarissasue
This awesome style is simple and easy to maintain. The tan-blonde ombre looks natural and as if you haven’t done anything special to make yourself stand out.
@colorbymaddie
When you streak an inverted bobwith bright blonde highlights, you get a sensual and creative hairstyle that is unique, artistic, and versatile. The extra-long side pieces touch the collarbone and draw attention to your face, while dark roots create a bold accent.
@suetyrrellstylist
When you have super-straight hair that is healthy, fine-textured, and doesn’t require any processing to lie flat and sleek, go for a unique color like this iced cappuccino hue. The key is choosing what hair color is best for your skin tone, ensuring it complements your complexion and eye color perfectly.
@saloncouture_ny
Do you find your natural color a bit boring but aren’t ready to dye it all? Get this: a mousy hair tone gets a new lease on life with blonde tips. A center part and tousled wavy tresses that hit at the collarbone have a slimming effect on the face and neck.
@mane_ivy
Long straight hair with super light feathery bangs works especially well if your mane has a tendency to be flat around the crown area. The center part also helps to give your hair a sense of width and volume, while darker roots create contrast, dimension, and the appearance of fullness.
@sherrimeow
Rich reds and rusty auburn tones lend a spectacular glow to shoulder-length wavy locks. Swoopy tresses that fall gently around the face do a flattering framing job. The mane seems to shimmer when the light hits at the right angle. The perfect hair color for ladies who want to draw looks.
@alchemyxartistry
Long caramel waves look really light and summery when they are offset by a golden blonde ombre hair. It’s a style that looks fabulous on thick manes that can easily hold a curl. Make sure to carefully arrange the spiral waves to make them POP!
@hairbycarissaraia
When you imagine typical long straight tresses in lighter shades of brown, you might be thinking of something similar to the style shown here. It’s a soft and discreet solution for a woman who wants to bring out her naturalness and femininity. Without any doubt, this is the perfect brown shade for ladies who prefer classical looks.
@ashleyrosebeauty_
If you’re looking for cool hair color ideas to feel like a queen, look no further. This chestnut brown shade with hues of copper is what you need to make a statement. We adore these shiny soft caramel framing tresses that highlight her beautiful skin tone and green eyes. Make it a bit messy, and voila – you’re the queen of hearts.
@hairbymickk
This shoulder-length hair looks awesome due to an elaborate mix of honey, strawberry blonde, and multiple shades of brown. A soft messy ‘do makes this earthy, subtly luminous hair color look even more feminine. A shade like this will be great for transitioning from a brunette shade to blonde hair.
@_edwardsandco
For thin hair, experts advise getting light shades, so if you’ve decided on brown hair color, go for a light hazelnut shade like this girl. To enhance this marvelous effect, her stylist used highlights to frame the face and curled her hair in loose romantic locks.
@ahmetcobain
If you have dark brown, almost black hair and want to liven up your natural shade of brunette, you can steal this idea. Milk chocolate highlights do this job perfectly well, giving your dark hair extra shine and dimension. Totally chic, isn’t it?
@hobbschelsey_hairstylist
