Our Pick of Top 10 Chunky Highlight Ideas:

The chunky highlights also have a better upkeep than balayage or ombre shades. So if you are willing to go ahead with this new hair trend, then browse our 10 cool colors below. Whether you have black, brown, blonde, or red hair, these are the best looks that are trending.

1. Sandy Blonde Lowlights:

You’ve heard of blonde coloring, but have you come across the sandy blonde lowlights? You are going to witness a lot of this trend this year. The hue is a natural light hue incorporating blonde highlight pieces with a neutral vibe. It is neither warm nor cool-it fits somewhere in the middle.

2. Bold Chunky Highlights:

We also love the bold chunky highlights because it has more of a color wash as opposed to a full on hue. It has a lesser commitment. But it still has a rich, pretty honey brown, illuminated with neutral lowlights.

3. Rose Gold Highlights:

Another favorite are the rose gold highlights, with softer version of the dreamy version. Before going for this red gold hue, we advise you to bleach your black or brown hair to a full on blonde. Remember this is an important step for achieving its full, true version as it needs the cleanest canvas.

4. Balayage Highlights:

It’s not surprising to see the balayage highlights getting a hotter version this season. If you have voluminous long waves, then bring out this cool-toned shade in a subtle way. The hue is anything but dull light hair brown. It’s warm and of course, rich-in every sense of the term.

5. Light Ombre Chunky Highlights:

We can also assure you that a cool version of the ombre lowlights can work on anyone with brunette hair. But you have to choose the correct toned shade. If you have a neutral skin tone, try to maintain a similar shade. Or if you darker skin tone, then lean on to ashy side.
