Nothing screams “luxury” like a hair trend inspired by semi-precious stones. According to TikTok, tiger eye blonde is the next big color trend. Here’s everything you need to know.
What is Tiger Eye Blonde?
Inspired by the semi-precious stone of the same name, Tiger Eye Blonde blends shades of bronze, gold, and dark brown. Deep, rich base colors are combined with bright, warm hues to create layered “stripes” of Tiger Eye gemstones.
“Tiger Eye Blonde is a warm, beautifully blended shade,” adds Jason Collier, stylist and key opinion leader at Jerome Russell Blonde. “This trend reflects a broader movement toward natural, earthy tones in hair color, influenced by a preference for a low-maintenance look. For those seeking a more organic, effortless aesthetic. It’s a resonant color that goes well with natural makeup trends and emphasizes a fresh, radiant look.”

And with over 1.5 million posts dedicated to #tigerseyehair on TikTok, we predict this trend will slowly become popular in salons. It’s especially popular with people who want a more natural-looking palette. “This is a must-try for anyone looking to refresh their look this fall/winter without drastically changing it,” says Jason. “We can embrace the changing seasons while maintaining our natural beauty.”
Who looks good in this color?
“Tiger eye blonde, with tones of honey, brown, and amber, is an incredibly adaptable shade,” explains Jason. “The rich brown and gold undertone lift makes it versatile for most skin tones.
“It can be achieved in several ways, including full color, balayage, and highlights. This versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of styles, from natural to bold, and caters to anyone looking for a low-maintenance option. I will.”
