It's no wonder that ash blonde is a major hair goal: It's literally cool—cool gray undertones, that is—and it looks just so, so cool. To try it for yourself, embrace your natural color and enhance it with platinum streaks like Ciara, or ombré your hair into a warm toffee like Elizabeth Olsen. No matter your skin tone, there's an ash blonde for everyone. Click through to find yours today.
