How to Get Peach Blonde Hair
Before we get into the peach hair inspiration, let's talk about the shades of peach you can wear.There are two ways to get the look: either you melt peach and blonde tones together or you ask your hair colorist to paint them side by side. So, you could go for an all-over color drench with the perfect blend of the two hues or you could work a blonde base with hints of peach swept through in highlights, using a balayage technique or ombre strokes.
Whatever you choose, it's likely your colorist will need to pre-lighten your hair first, so peach hues pop. For this, we recommend heading to your nearest Wella salon, so your colorist can treat your hair to BlondorPlex. This bond-strengthening pre-lightener not only gives you up to nine levels of lift, but it also gives you up to 97% less breakage*, thanks to the built-in PLEX ingredient. Once your hair has been lifted, it will be ready for one of these peach shades...
10 Peach Blonde Hair Looks to Try
Peach Blonde Balayage

If you're looking to get creative with a peach blonde balayage, ask your colorist for a major melt like this, created using semi-permanent Color Fresh CREATE. Blonde roots blend into peachy-orange lengths for a two-tone look that's sure to turn heads. Contrast is key here, so don't be afraid to go a little bit bolder with your peach hue. You could also ask for ice blonde roots to really dial up the contrast and help the peach pop.

As crisp and clean as a pure platinum blonde, but with a hint of peachy warmth, this root-to-tip hue is a must if you're craving major luminosity. It teams particularly well with poker straight locks, so if you tend to reach for the flat iron, this is the perfect shade of peach blonde for your style. Just don't forget to use a heat protectant, like ULTIMATE SMOOTH Miracle Oil Serum, to protect your peach from shade fade.

If you're working with a brunette base and want a darker shade of peach, keep your natural roots intact and try this blend of orange, peach and blonde. Still light and luminous, but with a decadent touch of depth, it features Illumina Color through lengths of hair to deliver that reflective glow. Then, if you're blessed with curls like this, give them extra definition using NutriCurls Curlixir Balm, a nourishing styler that ensures every peachy ringlet stands out.
Platinum Blonde and Peach Dip-Dye

Remember when we said you could work peach and blonde side-by-side instead of melting the two together? Here's the perfect example: a platinum blonde bob with a dynamic shade pop on the ends. Ideal for those who prefer cool-toned hair, which contrasts beautifully against warm skin tones, it adds an unexpected bit of flare to a blonde bob. Koleston Perfect is our go-to color for a dramatic look like this; our most intense permanent hair color, and the first to combine Metal Purifier with ME+ dye technology. So, not only do you get the true-to-tone results of an anti-metal color, but you also reduce the risk of developing a new allergy to color*.
Subtle Peach Blonde Color Block

Peach blonde doesn't have to make a statement; it can also be soft and subtle, as seen in this blink-and-you'll-miss-it color block through the front of honey blonde hair. So, if you just want to dip a toe into the trend – for now, at least – try a delicate face frame. Your colorist can create the look with a SHINEFINITY Color Glaze for a zero-damage, zero-lift, translucent veil of peachy-keen color.

If copper hair feels too dark and peach hair feels too soft, embrace vivid tones by wearing copper and peach in one look. Color Touch is our ideal product for this gorgeous hair color, as it's got shine and vibrancy locked down, so you get radiant richness from root to tip. Maintain the shade at home with the Color Fresh Mask in Peach Blush; a between-appointments tone refresh that adds a fresh burst of peach tones in just 10 minutes.

Melting not one, not two, but three trending shades together, this fusion of rose gold, peach and strawberry blonde hues is as peachy-fresh as pastel shades get. The tones are soft, the styling is effortless, and the darker root adds to the lived-in feel. So, ask your colorist to keep your root natural and, for a shade this glowy and translucent, request a SHINEFINITY Color Glaze on pre-lightened hair.
How to Maintain Peach Blonde Hair
When it comes to peach blonde hair, shine is everything, so follow these steps to ensure your pastel look glows with health...
1. Use Color-Protecting Hair Care
Keep hair looking peachy by swapping traditional shampoos for care products that cater to colored hair. We love INVIGO Brilliance Color Protection Shampoo to shield your shade, followed by INVIGO Brilliance Vibrant Color Conditioner for glossy nourishment. The two are packed with Lime Caviar Extract for antioxidant-rich protection, and work in tandem to help your pastel shade last in between salon visits.
2. Focus On Repair and Radiance
Whether you have damaged hair already or you want to prevent it from dulling your shine, you need ULTIMATE REPAIR Miracle Hair Rescue in your kit. The weightless mist repairs hair damage in 90 seconds* while reducing breakage by 99%*, making it one of the fastest-acting products for results you can see and feel. Simply mist it from root to tip through clean, towel-dried hair, and then let it absorb for the full 90 seconds. It's a quick trick that levels up hair health.
Then, layer ULTIMATE SMOOTH Miracle Oil Serum over the top. This hair oil-meets-serum delivers nourishment in 30 seconds and smoothness that lasts up to 3 days*, so your peach blonde mane stays frizz-free. It's an instant gloss booster that preps your hair for the silkiest style, no matter your hair type. Plus, because it features heat protection, you can use it to counteract the fading effects of your favorite hot tools.
3. Add an Extra Burst of Peach
In between salon visits, when that peachy tone top-up feels too far away, use Color Fresh Mask in Peach Blush to dial up hair's vibrancy. All you must do is apply it to clean, damp hair, let it develop for 10 minutes, and then rinse thoroughly. Your pastel peach will appear fresher and brighter just like that.
