The silver hair trend was clearly not a flash in the bucket. Oh no, this metallic look is still alive and ticking – it looks amazing on any and all hair types. If you really wanna show off your silver fox look, try a sleek straight style with body-inducing layers.
Balayage hair is an expensive color, but it also gives you the advantage of stunning natural color and seamless regrowth. No to mention the variety of colors you can blend in your hair to create a brand new look! No wonder balayage remains one of the best hair color ideas for straight hair. Look through these 30 balayage straight hair looks for ideas and inspiration.
While rich monochromatic brown is currently in favor, it can be flawlessly enhanced with subtle balayage or face-framing highlights. Contemporary trendy blonde tones are cool and pale to cool down high summer temperatures. Dark blonde and bronde balayage styles aren’t out of the fashion catwalks either.
Redheads may indulge in fantastic hues of already familiar coppers and auburns as well as rose gold, which is divinely clear and enticing this season. While ombre is still on-trend, it now features very soft and subtle color transitions. See the examples below to note the best color ideas for your straight hair.

Want to stand out with your classic short cut? Coloring your hair will breathe new life into your everyday style. Go with this gorgeous caramel balayage, which looks specifically beautiful on a blunt bob cut.
There are so many hair hue trends that are dominating the salon. But if you are not a fan of experiments, you better go with something that’s forever classic and simple when you go for a sophisticated blonde shade. This sun-kissed hue will look especially lovely on medium to long hair.

Some think brunettes have few options when it comes to hair colors. Well, that’s just not true. Take, for instance, this gorgeous caramel-brown balayage: this color looks seamlessly on brunettes, and yet it delivers a bold change from the norm.

Get cute and funky with a fun berry shade – or several! Hair colors often play it too safe, so dare to be different with the stunning berry pink hue. Make the shades lighter on tips to add extra dimension to your ’do. This way, this style looks truly eye-catching.
@hairby.vivi
You need to see a professional whenever you decide to go blonde, as it can be a tricky task. Using the balayage technique to dye your locks cool blonde will make your straight strands multi-dimensional and gorgeous, while also minimizing the damage and blending the roots.
@styled.by.frann
Caramel and bronze hues are all about trends these days. You can rock one of these shades as an all-over wash or work it in as a balayage or ombre style. Make sure you enlist the help of a color-preserving shampoo to keep that color looking wonderful.
@live_love_dohair
Regardless of your natural hair color, you can easily refresh it with a trendy blonde balayage. Work with your stylist to come up with this unique blonde shade and turn into the blonde cutie you’ve always wanted to be.
@catcoiffeur
Bright gold balayage is ideal for lightening up mousy light brown hair and adding vibrancy to less-than-stellar locks. Add long curtain bangs to balance your long hair and create extra volume on your thin strands.
@abbie_pierrots
Blonde hair blended with ashy shades will earn you countless compliments wherever you go! With this balayage, straight hair will get more texture and volume, which is perfect for those having a fine mane.
@marijkeparadiek
It’s no secret that multi-toned hairstyle ideas are a dime a dozen these days. A smart combination of highlights and lowlights featuring a buttery blonde palette stands out even without any curls and bends, so go for it without hesitation!
@pinups_hairsalon
What’s great about this style is that it provides extra volume achieved with darker roots and lowlights. The hue will go absolutely amazing with summer sunshine, as with the blonde balayage, your sun-kissed hair will look super bright and sparkly!
@the.palm.club
There’s something about endless tresses that really show off hair dye in a beautiful way. Try this gorgeous honey blonde color when you’re ready to brighten up, and add a body wave to make your ’do more voluminous.
@hairbyoguz
Are you a brunette dreaming about platinum blonde hair color? Check out this impressive idea. This hue totally changes up the classic gold tint and breathes new life into the mane. Try melting the color in so it transitions from your natural roots and illuminates your brown strands.
@kashmirbytessmarie
Looking for a hair color to ring in the fall season? A soft, shiny chestnut brown with red undertones is the right way to go. The shade is brazen without being over-the-top. When curled and styled, it is truly magnificent, so make sure you’ll have some fun with this shade some time soon.
@thescissorsammurai
There’s a reason dark plum hair is a thing right now. Not only is it striking and totally fabulous, but it’s completely versatile and can be made to look close to natural. The cool colorful balayage, for example, is an ideal way to work the shade in seamlessly.
@butterflyloftsalon
Trendy layers complement a short hairstyle well, and you can go with pretty much any shade. Brunette ombre hair is popular with layered hair of any length, while bolder colors work well for black hair. Not sure if you’re ready for modern layers? Ask for a more traditional cut that will still show off your new hue.
@nothingbutpixies
Get fruitylicious with your hair. The best way to do so is by getting some beautiful burgundy highlights that are reminiscent of a delicious bowl of berries. Make sure to start them at the top, by the roots, so they weave in throughout the hair and create a cool, prism-like effect.
@guy_tang
Long hair can be expensive to maintain, so you may as well go with a style you love. Choose a plum brown hair color in ombre highlights. It will bring out the beauty in your long hair. Be sure to use a shampoo and conditioner for color treated hair following your salon visit – long hair needs extra care to make color last.
@peterdelucasalon
Everything you knew about highlighted hair is out the window. Forget the traditional honey and/or platinum highlights and start thinking about some serious color. More specifically, consider purple lowlights. Especially on textured, layered locks, these cool flashes of violet are totally stunning.
@xostylistxo
Now there’s something to be said about classic styles. Say, for instance, bright blonde on blonde locks. Platinum blonde with lowlights is the epitome of California beach babe, and it will never go out of style. Seriously.
@rafaelbertolucci1
If your black hair has you at a loss about hair color options available, let us make things easier for you. Weave plum highlights into the bottom of your hair for a clear-yet-subtle color transition. The purple will shine especially bright in the sunlight, glistening like a jewel.
@modernsalon
If you’re looking for something different, go with a pretty style that comes with a dramatic punch. This option is ideal for any hair type, including African American curls. Dark hair looks stunning with bold highlights. Add some curls or waves to your hair to further accentuate the balayage.
@balayagebynatalie
Get a hairstyle that will have you seeing red…kind of. Deep plum highlights are a great way to add color to your life without going completely neon. The rich color is still bold without being overpowering. Try playing with loose, beach waves to show off the panels of color and really turn heads.
@hairbynoora
Just because you’re not a blonde, doesn’t mean you can’t rock popular today bright and bold colors. Add some fun to that brunette mane of yours and try plum brown hair in the form of lovely colorful highlights. The look is surprisingly flattering and totally unexpected.
@chelscaruso

@delucasalon
A deep burgundy is a popular hair color for fall. Darkening up as the weather cools is a lovely way to express your excitement for the upcoming holidays.
@alexisbutterflyloft
If you struggle with dark ash brown hair that looks dull and lifeless, transform it with maroon highlights and a new sassy cut.
@khimandi
Having fun with hair color can also mean taking the more subtle natural route. In fact, playing it safe can actually be a stroke of genius, especially if you’re looking to add a bit of warm honey brown to your cool, raven locks. The well-blended ombre effect works the color in perfectly and literally looks like you woke up like this.
@frances_hairartist
Dark hair color ideas are just as popular as lighter shades, and a cool two tone color will shine bright on wavy hair. Go for a dark brown with light brown accents next time you visit your salon. Choosing a two tone color can brighten the face and lighten up hair that normally looks and feels “heavy” and drab.
@hairbykacie1
Switch up that typical ombre and go for a color combo that is a bit off the wall. And nothing is more unpredictable than ashy brown hair that fades into an equally ashy blonde. While glossy, shiny hair is the normal go-to, matte finishes are starting to take over the hair world and it’s no wonder. The look, especially when worn in a two-toned style, is beyond cool.
@taitkieuapril05
Well, these all are so beautiful that you may want them all! However, we recommend you to consider your color type (the 4 basic seasons system) and choose hair colors accordingly: cooler hues for cool-toned skin and warmer colors for warm-toned skin. Note also that in case your appearance is endowed with low contrast characteristics, you won’t withstand too saturated hues or dramatic color solutions.
