Gigi Hadid has long been known for her stunning blonde hair, but the supermodel is now taking her signature shade to a new level. Recently, she stepped out with a striking hair color that can only be described as “silver tequila.” The icy platinum meets soft silver hues shimmer like a top-shelf tequila pour—crisp, cool, and anything but ordinary.
This fresh shade challenges the typical warm, golden blonde and leans into the growing trend of silver-toned hair. It proves that gray hair isn’t something to hide; instead, it’s a bold fashion statement, regardless of age. L’Oréal Professionnel Color Expert Min Kim explains, “As more people are drawn to cool-toned blondes and high-shine finishes, this color makes a statement without being overly dramatic. It’s a modern evolution of platinum blonde that feels fresh and fashion-forward.”
Whether you’re embracing the color naturally or looking for a bold, trendy change, “silver tequila” hair strikes the perfect balance of stylish and polished.
To achieve Gigi’s stunning icy silver hair, the key is to start with a very light base. Whether you’re naturally brunette or blonde, bleaching will be necessary. However, patience is crucial during the process. Wella Professionals Brand Ambassador Zach Mesquit recommends using a low-volume lightener to avoid damaging the hair and ensure it stays healthy. While this may require extra time in the chair, it’s well worth it for a sleek, smooth finish.
Once the hair is lightened to the ideal pale blonde shade, the next step is applying the toner. Mesquit suggests using Wella Professionals Blondor Liquid Toners in “Pale Platinum” and “Pale Silver,” mixed together in equal parts. This combination will give you the cool, metallic silver that reflects the sleek look of a premium tequila bottle.
After the coloring process, deep-conditioning treatments are essential. Mesquit emphasizes the importance of nourishing your hair with rich masks and hydrating treatments to maintain strong, shiny strands. Silver hair requires dedication, so give your hair the care it deserves to keep it looking its best.
