Long Wavy Dark Brown with Blonde Money Piece Highlights
This is Look #12 from “25 Dark Chocolate Brown Hair Ideas” Collection.
This standout brunette hairstyle combines rich chocolate brown with striking blonde money pieces, creating the perfect contrast for a bold, modern finish. It’s a gorgeous way to brighten your look while maintaining a dark, dimensional base.
Ideal for long, thick to medium hair, this style features subtle long layers and loose waves that amplify movement and volume. The blonde money piece highlights frame the face beautifully, drawing attention to the eyes and cheekbones. The cool-toned blonde pops against the deeper brown background, making this look especially flattering for oval and heart-shaped faces. It’s perfect for those wanting a trendy update without committing to a full-colour transformation.
💇♀️ Styling tips:
Use a medium curling wand for waves, curling away from the face to enhance the money piece effect. Finish with shine spray to keep the blonde vibrant.
🧴 Maintenance look:
Use purple shampoo to tone blonde highlights and keep brassiness at bay. Touch-ups for the money piece every 6–8 weeks will keep it looking fresh and bright. @hairbymickk
