Balayage - Highlighting Hair Colour

Balayage refers to the way color is hand-painted onto the hair.

It is applied with a sweeping motion, sparingly at the roots and heavier towards the ends and is less time-consuming than getting a full head of foil highlights.

Traditional foiling can sometimes leave hard lines and extreme color contrasts, but the balayage colorist can literally paint highlights more precisely where the sun would actually hit your hair.

Balayage is a more complicated process than other traditional coloration methods, so be sure to ask about the stylist's training and experience.

Consult with your colorist about not adding too many highlights and including more of the dark tones.

The secret is to create contrasts with darker areas to emphasize the highlights.

Some salons charge by the hour and others by the number of colors used in the application.

There are also combination packages available that include conventional foiling with balayage to achieve a more dramatic, intense look with richer color saturation.
