4 Ways To Get Darker Blonde Hair Color in A Week
Getting your ideal blonde shade, isnt always an easy task.
Getting your ideal blonde shade, isn’t always an easy task. There are many factors that influence how well hair takes color, including:
- Age of the hair
- Color of your natural hair
- How much color you’re adding to your hair (e.g., dark brown to light blonde)
- Condition of the natural hair’s cuticle (it can be rough or smooth)
Change your hair color when its wet.
When you choose to get your hair colored at a salon, you may be told that it’s best to have it done when the hair is wet. This is because when the hair is wet, the color will appear darker than it will when its dry. The same thing goes for when you’re dying your own hair in the comfort of your own home. If you want dark blonde highlights, try doing them while your hair is damp and let them dry before styling or going out. They should look like they did at the salon!
Go a shade darker every few months.
If you’ve been trying to go a shade or two darker, but don’t want to damage your hair in the process, try this method. Each time you go a shade darker, your hair will reflect more light and be closer to the color you want. This method is significantly less damaging than going from dark brown all the way up to blonde.
If done correctly and regularly enough (at least once every three months or so), it will take about four or five years of gradually getting darker for your hair before it reaches its ideal color without any major damage.
Use a darker rinse.
To get a darker blonde hair color, you can use a darker rinse. A darker rinse will help you to achieve the look of having very lightened hair while still maintaining some of the natural color in your locks.
A lighter rinse may be applied to dry hair, wet hair or damp hair and should be completely rinsed out when done. The resulting effect will vary depending on how long the rinse has been left on for and how much product was used, so experimentation is important here!

- Always use a good quality hair dye, never cheap ones as they can damage your hair.
- Always use a color-safe shampoo and conditioner when washing your hair, this will help protect the color from fading faster than it should.
- Dyeing hair can be messy, so make sure to wear old clothes when dying it to avoid staining them with dye or bleach stains. Also make sure you have rubber gloves on hand so that any splashes donโt land on your hands and cause irritation or burns (especially if you have sensitive skin).
