Balayage is simply the next evolution in haircolor. Derived from the French word balayage, meaning "to sweep", the technique involves hand painting of the hair with color or lightener to produce an incredibly individual result.
The process in extremely versatile and can be combined with traditional American techniques, such as foiling or single process color, for a combination that has come to be known as "American tailoring". There literally is no limit as to what can be achieved through balayage. The possibilities are endless.
The technique can produce results from delicate and blended to bold and dramatic. What will be noticed immediately is the elimination of foil "lines".
This means NO MORE STRIPES!
Balayage produces soft hints of lightness or depth (darkness) that look more natural and undoubtedly beautiful. Not like you just had your hair "foiled", but more like you have been at the beach for a month, or for brunettes, like you really do have "naturally" highlighted hair. If a more edgy or progressive result is desired, this is where placement comes into play. Your colorist will work directly with the shape of your face, as well as the structure of your haircut, to accentuate and dramatize the key elements and features that comprise your look and style.In addition to creating incredible richness in tone of color, the results are shiny and seamless. Be eliminating foil, the vision of the colorist can come to true fruition and the haircolor can be designed for each individual client. The color is painted directly to the scalp to achieve long lasting results, easily translated into less maintenance and fewer trips to the salon.
Welcome the future. Welcome to Balayage.
