According to widely held beliefs, blondes are joyful, sexy and outgoing. The fact is that blonde hair kept fascinating the Western world since time immemorial. Way back in time, blonde was likened to gold and therefore it was considered the hair color of goddesses and rulers.

On average, blondes have a larger number of hairs than darker-haired persons. This is however not obvious because the individual blonde hair tends to be thinner than darker pigmented hair.

Whether hair is naturally blonde or bleached, the structure of blonde hair is finer and softer than darker hair. Due to the absence of pigments, blonde hair reflects light more effectively. This makes blonde hair appear even finer and shinier.

Blonde Hair: Suitable Haircuts

To give fine blonde hair more volume you should opt for a layered haircut.

Please note: if the hair is cut too feathery your hair may appear even finer. The hair ends should therefore be cut in a blunt way rather than fringed.

Short and chin-long hairstyles require less intense styling and are therefore ideal for blonde hair. Long blonde hair often hangs limb like cooked spaghetti and requires more elaborate styling steps.

It is often necessary to work on adding volume and structure to your hair if it is longer than chin-length. You can achieve this by styling your hair for more volume or including curls or waves into your hairstyle.
