While the jury may be out on whether blondes really have more fun—they certainly spend more time at the hair salon. Bleached, toned, and glossed, being blonde can be high-maintenance. Cue “cashmere” blonde, a soft, silky shade that’s all about ease.
Just like pulling on your favourite Toteme sweater, this hair colour is all about ease. Ask your colourist to add subtle highlights of warm shades like caramel, beige and honey to your blonde hair. This discreet colour palette (no white lights or bleach-bleach blonde, here) falls into the realm of quiet luxury. And then comes the best part of cashmere blonde: Because of the way the highlights are blended with the natural hair, the shade should require fewer touchups.
The result is a harmonious blonde, subtly contrasted by caramel and honey-toned highlights, which match the sophistication of so-called quiet luxury. Indeed, there’s a bevy of celebrities to look to for pointers—from Addison Rae showing off the colour with retro waves at the 2024 CFDA Fashion Awards, to Meghann Fahy’s warm and understated take at the 2024 MoMA Film Benefit. That’s to say nothing of Lila Moss’ ice cool shade at the 2024 Innovator Awards.
