'"Rubio ceniza" for ash blonde.
But I am told (gospel from a native speaker), that "rubia ceniza" is just not used, It is only "rubia".
It would still fall in the category of "güera" for a woman.

güera-Alt y (ü) seems to work in comments, but not if I edit your reply. Had to copy from character map. - 0074b507, Mar 6, 2011
Paco, "güera(o)" is really slang. "Rubio(a)" is the proper term. Don't let your wife catch you on this one either - 005faa61, Mar 6, 2011
According to my wife "rubia ceniza" is not used at all. it is simply "rubia". - pacofinkler, Mar 6, 2011

JulianChivi: güero o güera no es slang. Es una voz indígena y su uso es muy común en México - Agora, Mar 6, 2011
