Platinum blonde is a hair color characterized by its very light, almost white shade of blonde. This color is achieved through a bleaching process that removes most of the natural pigment from the hair. It is often associated with a striking, high-fashion look and can be seen in various styles, from short pixie cuts to long flowing locks. The term "platinum" refers to the precious metal known for its bright, silvery appearance, which is similar to the hue of this hair color. Many celebrities, such as Madonna and Gwen Stefani, have popularized platinum blonde hair, making it a trendy choice in the beauty industry.
