When the sunny days arrive, many French women want to lighten their lengths. Known for her iconic brown, the former Miss France is switching to beige blonde. Neither too cold nor too golden, this “California Girl” style blonde remains easy to wear thanks to the natural roots.
An admitted “crazyness”: Iris Mittenaere’s transition to blonde
In the video posted on Instagram, Iris Mittenaere first appears with her long brown hair, then films the steps at Lucas Di Oslo. Arriving at the rinse, she has fun: “Watch me ruin my hair by going blonde…“, before immediately qualifying: “Just kidding, I love it“. The tone is light, but the metamorphosis is real: its brown with copper highlights gives way to a worked blonde.
The hairdresser opted for luminous balayage and hair contouring around the face, a tip which, according to Voici, brightens the eyes and boosts the skin’s radiance in the sun. He also “kept its natural base” so that the regrowth remains soft, without any marked root effect. The result, obtained in around five hours, gives a very sunny blonde without affecting its length or its curtain bangs.
The new star color of summer
Iris Mittenaere’s hair is now a beige blonde, a neutral shade neither too polar nor too golden. This tone imitates the effect of the sun on the hair and gives radiance to the complexion without looking artificial. On the trend side, this result is close to a “bronde” coloring, this chic in-between with darker roots.
As a bonus, this blonde summer star even camouflages “little white hair“. Thanks to blended beige highlights, the light highlights drown these little emerging white hairs in the mass, where a uniform brown would make them stand out. With the natural base preserved, the touch-ups can remain spaced out, which appeals to those who want to change their look.
