Want to try something new, unique and trendy that will make you look like you just stepped off a Hollywood set? Instead of doing the usual, conventional hair color, try balayage! The word “balayage” is derived from a French word, meaning to “to sweep.” This technique applies color to the hair in a sweeping motion, applying it only to the surface of the section of hair, and not saturating the hair completely in order to prevent harsh looking streaks of color. The beauty of balayage is that it is completely customizable – tailored to fit the perfect shade for you, offering a look that’s unique, stylish and fun.
The subtle shimmer created by Balayage adds dimension and texture to any hairstyle, making it a great choice for those looking for something glamorous yet subtle. It is especially flattering on longer hair as it makes it appear fuller and thicker. The two-tone effect helps create depth while keeping things low-key at the same time.
Balayage requires little maintenance, far less than traditional hair coloring, since it grows out beautifully and without lines showing new growth hair color. That also allows for a longer period between colorings and creates a soft blended look, for a transition from dark to light. Balayage is suitable for all types and lengths of hair, whether your hair is straight, wavy or curly, the color will still work and look great. And since regrowth is less noticeable, balayage is a great alternative for those who desire low maintenance hair styles. Balayage has been in high demand for years and its popularity continues to grow.
Balayage can be used to create a variety of stunning looks that will make heads turn – from classic ombre styles to popular rose gold hues, caramel browns and cool gray tones. Let your creativity run wild with balayage hairstyles. Your stylist can discuss your hair color goal with you and schedule treatments ahead of time, to ensure that your hair is healthy, and ready to be balayaged with a more natural, flowing and sun-kissed look and appeal.
