What is champagne blonde hair?

As you may have guessed, champagne blonde hair is inspired by the popular party beverage. To achieve champagne blonde hair, your colorist will create a soft, creamy hue with an emphasis on shine that resembles a sparkling glass of bubbly.

If you’re starting with a dark hair color and are hoping to go much lighter, your colorist will need to bleach your mane to lift your current hue before applying a champagne hair color. While bleach will always cause damage, your colorist will work to make sure your strands look and feel their best before you leave the salon. Ask your colorist about Redken Shades EQ Gloss, a salon service that allows you to try a hair color like champagne blonde with minimal damage (its ammonia-free!). And here’s something to celebrate—the brand’s latest shade launched is Gold Rose which falls perfectly in line with the champagne blonde trend.

How do you care for champagne blonde hair?

With any color change, you can expect to switch up your hair care routine a bit. Since every great maintenance routine starts with a salon-quality shampoo and conditioner. We recommend picking up a system formulated specifically for color-treated hair like the Redken Blondage Color Extend Shampoo + Conditioner Duo. This system features a gentle non-stripping formula to enhance vibrancy on color-treated hair.

If your strands are feeling the damaging effects of bleach, a weekly hair mask is a must. We love the Redken All Soft Heavy Cream Deep Conditioning Mask. This two-in-one hair mask is both an intense conditioner and care extender designed specifically for dry, brittle hair.

To keep your champagne hair color looking its best, expect to head back to the salon every four to six weeks for touch-ups. If you’re a natural blonde, you may be able to stretch out the time between salon appointments a bit longer.

Is champagne blonde cool or warm?

Good question! While champagne blonde typically has golden undertones, your colorist can tailor the hue to be cool or warm depending on your desired final look. Searching for inspiration photos to bring to the salon?

Is champagne blonde the same as ash blonde?

While ash blonde is very similar to champagne, the latter has a more intense shine—which is why so many people confuse the two shades. Ash blonde is an extremely cool hue while champagne can be worn super cool or on the warmer side depending on your skin tone.

Pearly Champagne

When it comes to champagne blonde, pearl is the brightest of them all. To maintain your iridescent hue in between touch-ups, invest in a color depositing shampoo like the Biolage Professional Color Last Purple Shampoo.
