My Favorite Strawberry Blonde Hair Color Using Clariol True Color


Strawberry Blond

For years now, I have been searching for just the right strawberry Blonde sunkissed hair color.  I have tried so many at home box colors and no one color was just right.  There are a myriad of Red Blonde hair colors from dark to ultra light.  I am more in the light shade.  Also, I am a natural strawberry blonde.  However, due to hard water and my natural color was lack luster, I started coloring it.  

For a few years, I have used Clariol hair colors with good results.  They have also been in the at home and professional hair color industry for many years.  They create natural looking colors which is what I am after.  No Easter Egg hair color for me.  I did the bright pink hair in the early aughts along with Gwen Stefani.  My hair is naturally light and fine so I can't use harsh harsh hair color.  Also, it won't hold dark hair color and I get gross faded color.  My skin is not fair but light.  My coloring is warm violet.  It took forever for me to find a red that was not either to blue or orange.  To much of either one can make me look sickly.

So without further ado here is what I am now using and LOVE!
Clariol True Color Professional level color that I got at Sally's.

This is not a box system so you will have to order color and developer separate.  Here's what you will need.

  • I used Clariol True Color Cream in 10AV Sunrise
  • Clariol True Color Cream Developer Level 20 
  • Hair Color Bowl and Brush
  • Hair Clips or Ponytail Holders to section off
  • Plastic Latex Gloves
Watch my How To Video on my Wispy Dahlia Mode YouTube Channel for an in depth on how I did it and results.

A Packable Hat From Woodland to Street Style

On this sunny day, I just had to take a walk.  I cherish days like this where the weather is warm, a breeze is light and humidity is low.  For my walk in the woodland roads of Kentucky, I dress casual.  However, I leave it to my hat to add the fashion statement.  A great fashion hat can do that:  it adds an element of tres chic to a not so stylish look.   Today as I meander down the country road, I love looking at flowers, fauna, the blue sky and Faerieland.  Yes, the natural wooded area near where I live is vast and I dream of the faeries who live there.   But back to my style.  Don't neglect style no matter what you are doing.  Here, I wear a white T-shirt, cut off sweats and moccasins.  The fedora hat gives the look it's wonderfulness.  It's a black corduroy fedora with white pixie dots.   I made this particular one lightweight with no stiffener or lining which makes it a Packable fashion hat.  So yo...
