Ash blonde is a shade of blonde. A soft mix between two colors:blond and gray (silver or ash).
A multi-toned ash blonde. for example, you can define a very light blonde that tends towards gray like an ash blonde, but you can also call an ash blonde a very light and cold chestnut color.
It is easily distinguished by its gray highlights and does not look like a golden blond which will tend to pull on the yellow and be more luminous.
This is a cool toned color. The ash blonde is therefore perfect for people with a fair complexion , light eyes and already blond or light brown hair. It is also often said that ash blond is very pretty on skin that blushes easily.
People with warm complexions will find it more difficult to wear ash blonde because it will dull their complexion. They prefer blondes with warm highlights to have a healthy glow.
