9 Best Blonde Hair Dyes UK 2024 | Garnier, Schwarzkopf, John Frieda and More

This cruelty-free hair dye smells gorgeous and creates a striking light blonde colour too. Entirely vegan and never tested on animals, Umberto Giannini's Flowerology range has the added bonus of vitamins E and C which have hydrating properties and are thought to encourage cell regeneration. 

To completely eradicate your greys, or to lighten hair to its healthiest-looking shade of blonde, simply mix the colourant with the creamy developer and apply a generous dollop of the conditioner included in the box. Superb shine, bright highlights and minimal mess ― what's not to love?

The best thing about this hair dye is that it's packed with plant oils. In fact, they make up 60% of the formulation! The list includes sunflower seed, camellia, meadowfoam seed, and passionflower oil, all of which have softening benefits for hair while providing bold, professional results. 

This particularly icy blonde shade evokes a hint of Princess Elsa and maybe even a little Draco Malfoy! So it will probably be better suited to those with cooler undertones to their complexion. 

Dreaming of shining silver locks? This long-lasting hair dye could be your best bet. It's incredibly easy to apply and comes with a sachet of protective conditioner, enriched with strengthening ingredients, such as fragrant rose oil and shine-boosting mother of pearl extract. The latter, however, isn't suitable for vegans.

This hair dye has a creamy texture for smooth application, without too much running or dripping. It produces a particularly light, silvery blonde, which should last up to 8 head-turning weeks!

A good reason to plump for this hair dye is that none of its ingredients are tested on animals, nor are they animal-derived. The non-drip gel formula helps to avoid mess and ensures great coverage, allowing you to effortlessly coat your hair with this at-home colourant. 

This hair dye contains peroxide, to guarantee a fantastic, fearless shade of blonde. It even comes with a multi-care mask, with hydrating ingredients including quinoa and shea butter, to offset some of the damage. 

The top reason to buy Schwarzkopf's Live Intense Lightener hair colour, is the exceptional vibrance of its results. This stunning shade called 'Absolute Platinum' offers a natural shade of blonde, while remaining equally striking and intense.

Ditch brassy blonde lengths and opt instead for fade-resistant, natural-looking colour by choosing this popular dye. Enriched with plant oils like apricot kernel and sunflower seed, it leaves hair feeling protected and silky yet strong.

We love this maxed-out blonde hair dye in a head-turning bright yellow shade. It's semi-permanent so expect it to fade relatively quickly, but that's the fun of this type of formula ― the freedom to experiment without commitment!

This dye is best suited to naturally blonde or pre-bleached hair, as it won't be able to lift your colour from darker shades. The good news is that if you are starting with a blonde base, you can choose between a Gaga-esque canary yellow or a delicate pastel shade by mixing the conditioner with the liquid colourant and developer. 

A key element of this particular hair dye is that it's a foam, rather than a liquid dye. This makes it easier to control with no drips or mess, coating each strand of hair for excellent coverage from root to tip.

Although it doesn't contain any oils or hydrating ingredients in the dye developer itself, the included after-colour conditioner boosts shine and leaves your hair feeling silky. On the downside, the non-drip foam formula results in it drying quickly while developing, so it's best to leave your hair in the shower cap while it processes. 

What particularly appeals about this blonde hair dye from Clairol is that it produces a blend of tones and golden highlights, rather than an unnatural-looking, heavy block of colour. This can be more flattering for those making a dramatic colour change from brown or black locks.

This product doesn't have any additional conditioners in the colourant formula, which can leave hair feeling dry. However, it does come with a separate conditioner that can last up to three washes, depending on the length of your hair.
