What Is Balayage?

Balayage is a modern highlighting technique that offers a low, maintenance, bespoke hair colour.

Often applied freehand, this is a highly technical service where your colourist paints soft, subtle highlights directly onto the hair, carefully placing them to accentuate your hair cut.

You don't need to have balayage throughout your hair either, many guests opt for face-framing balayage where highlights are painted around the face to enhance your facial features.

One of the most popular balayage looks is the blonde balayage but we also offer pastel balayage, fashion shades, red balayage and brown and caramel colours.

Blonde Balayage

There are multiple blonde shades to choose from so if you want to lighten brown hair or pep up mousy coloured hair, let us look at the best blonde balayage options for you.

Choose from bold platinum blondes, cool, ash blondes, golden and honey blondes or try the latest colour trend - bronde - which is a blend of blonde and brunette tones.

Balayage also takes many forms so you may also have heard of root shadowing, root stretching, colour melting & ombre. Root stretching seamlessly blends highlights that fade away from the roots. Colour melting blends several colours so they look almost like they are melting into the next shade. Ombre gives a more defined line between two colours, usually lighter towards the ends of the hair.
