The art of Balayage, a hair coloring technique used to create natural looking high lights like you spent the summer at the beach. There are endless possibilities when it comes to hand painting. Balayage is a french word meaning "to sweep".  The lightener is being applied to the hair in a sweeping motion. This creates a soft diffused lightness at the base and stronger saturation towards the ends. This technique is also great for clients who want less maintenance. The grow out is much softer then traditional foil highlights. 

In the video below I am demonstrating one of the ways I create Balayage. This client came in with regrowth,artificial pigment and a lot of underlying exposed pigment. So first we did an all over color to neutralize the warm red/orange tones. This gives us a clean slate. we blow dried the hair then began Balayage. I used Wella Blondor with Olaplex. Then glazed her twice to get maximum cooling without getting to dark. We used R and CO for all styling products.  For more information on Balayage comment below or come in for a consultation @salonova.
