Why would you want to bet on Smoky Ice

Why would you want to bet on Smoky Ice

It is a color that provides spectacular light and suits almost all skin and eye tones . Of course, finding the right tone will be easier if you have fair skin and base blonde or light brown hair. If you want to bet on Smoky Ice you should know that it needs a lot of care at home and also in the hairdresser to keep the color intact for longer. Avoiding yellowish tones is possible, if you know how!

It seems incredible, but the options to show it off are endless. You can opt for a more uniform color or ask your hairdresser to do some highlights to give it extra light and volume visually. Our recommendation? Balayage highlights or babylights one or two shades lighter or darker so that the contrast isn't too obvious. Start there and, if in a few months you still like it, bet on all the hair!

How to get the Smoky Ice color

How to get the Smoky Ice color

To achieve that "smoky" effect, it is very likely that you will have to bleach your hair more than once (and also tone it to achieve the desired tone), unless you already wear it very light. You should know that this process makes the hair look drier and weakened, so you will have to pamper it more than ever with specific shampoos and moisturizing masks.

Talk to your trusted hairdresser and ask if ash, gray or platinum shades will suit you best.

This color will look great on you whether you have super long hair, or if you wear an XS mane. You can wear it with straight hair, with waves … You decide! We love the union of the Smoky Ice with a bob haircut, do you dare to wear it?

The Smoky Ice color can also be a little darker, like the one you see in this photo. If your base tone is dark brown, this tone can be a good option and you can progressively lighten until you reach the desired color.
