Golden blonde is a warm color that flatters black skin and highlights the tan.

Let those who never wanted to have blonde hair throw the first stone. Illuminated locks are the darling of Spanish women and golden blonde is one of the shades of blonde that best match light black skin. The secret of this perfect marriage is that golden blonde hair is a warm color, which flatters dark and tanned skin.

For this reason, this nuance is a great hair color choice for brunettes and black women in the summer. If you have curly or frizzy hair, the combination of curls with golden blonde has everything to enhance the color result even more, leaving the look modern and laid-back.

To achieve this shade at home, it is recommended to use a permanent color, which has greater power to lighten the hair. But remember that colorings for home application have the power to lighten 3 to 4 tones in natural hair. That is, if your natural hair is light brown, for example, you can achieve golden blonde at home. But if your natural base is very dark, it is recommended to bleach the strands for best results.

Trend, dark brown hair creates a nice contrast with light black skin

If you prefer more closed and sober tones, this is the time to throw yourself into dark brown without fear of being happy. Dark brown hair is trending and suits all skin tones. In fair-skinned black women, this shade will create a balanced contrast with the skin and highlight the features of the face.

As it is a very traditional color, dark brown is recommended for those looking for a more natural and easy-care look, but still modern and elegant. Another advantage of this coloring is that the dark brown does not need bleaching and can be easily achieved at home.

As it is a solid and deep color, allowing dark brown hair to resemble black hair from afar, one of the main characteristics of this color is its intense shine. Therefore, an important tip is to keep the strands always hydrated after coloring to preserve color and shine. After a while, it's normal for the hair to start to fade, but nothing a shine bath with ammonia-free toner can't fix.

The auburn red is one of the most democratic hair colors for black women who want to go red.

One of the favorite shades of red hair among Spanish women, auburn red is a very democratic nuance that enhances different skin tones. The secret of acaju is that it is a dark red, very suitable for those who want more discreet red hair.

This darker background, slightly brownish, makes the mahogany red harmonize with all skin tones, from the lightest to the darkest. In light-skinned black women, this nuance will create a balanced contrast with the skin tone, drawing attention to the face without losing subtlety.

And best of all, because it's a close-knit red, you can achieve auburn red hair at home without bleaching it, if your strands are natural. For those who already have some color in their hair, the capillary stripping process is recommended to remove old pigments, which can interfere with the final result of your color.

Bet on dark blonde hair if your goal is a more discreet and classic blonde tone

Dark blonde hair is a hair color option for light-skinned brunettes and black women who don't give up blonde hair, but prefer less lighted nuances. As it is formed by mixing brown and blonde, dark blonde is more closed, approaching light brown, and perfect for those who want to lighten the hair without necessarily lightening the hair.

Another positive point of this shade is that it harms the hair less than lighter blondes. But that doesn't mean you won't need to maintain a colorful yarn care routine, see? All hair that goes through the coloring process needs permanent hair treatments, even the darkest or dyed ones.

It is possible to achieve a dark blonde at home, as long as your natural hair is light brown or medium brown, using a permanent dye. As with other shades of blonde, if your hair is naturally very dark, bleaching is recommended to achieve dark blonde hair.

Medium brown is a lighter option for highlighting light black skin.

If you've made it this far, you already know that brown hair is on the rise. But if you're not a big fan of solid and intense dark brown, one option is medium brown. This hue is between brown and dark brown and can have slightly golden reflections or a warmer brown background.

If your goal is to become a more illuminated brunette, the medium golden brown hue is one of the best options to achieve this goal. The golden reflections of the coloring give lightness and relaxation to the look, drawing attention to the frizzy and curly strands. But if your goal is a more pulled towards brown, chocolate brown hair is another shade of medium brown that flatters light black skin.

If you already have naturally light brown hair, it is possible to achieve medium brown hair at home with perms or toners. But if your hair is naturally very dark, it's better to bet on permanent dyes, which have greater lightening power and penetration into the strands.
