Balayage or Highlights – Which Hair Colour Option is Ideal for Me?
Confused about the difference between Balayage and Highlights?
Balayage, originating from the French word for 'sweeping,' entails the artistic application of highlights onto the hair using free-hand painting techniques. This method empowers our color experts to precisely introduce color where desired. Balayage is adaptable to all hair lengths and colors, providing the versatility to achieve subtle or striking looks tailored to your preferences. Our "Balayage" service encompasses various techniques, such as Face Framing, which enhances brightness around the face, and Foilyage, utilizing foil to section off the hair for precision coloring.
The Brunette Balayage trend is rapidly gaining traction, offering a spectrum of options ranging from subtle sun-kissed honey-blondes to daring bright blondes and chic platinum blonde color trends.
To keep your Brunette Balayage looking fresh, we recommend scheduling a gloss refresh 4-6 weeks after your Balayage appointment, followed by a Balayage refresh every 8-12 weeks. Renowned for their low-maintenance attributes, both Balayage and Babylight Highlights can be tailored to match your desired tones effortlessly.
The Highlights technique delivers a distinct color transformation, featuring blonde tones that begin from the roots and extend to the ends. If you're aiming for a notably lighter blonde hue, highlights could be the perfect choice. There are various techniques to choose from, including classic Foils, Babylights, and Platinum Card, each offering unique effects ranging from sun-kissed to striking platinum bright blonde.
For maintenance, platinum card or classic foils may necessitate more upkeep. Typically, we recommend a gloss refresh 2-4 weeks post-appointment and scheduling foils every 6-8 weeks to sustain your desired look.
While Blonde Balayage and Highlights remain popular choices among our clientele, we also cater to those seeking more adventurous styles with Joico Intensity fashion hair colors. Following the lightening process, you have the freedom to maintain a natural blonde look or delve into a world of creativity by layering various colors, including pastels, vivids, and every hue of the rainbow.
The possibilities are endless, and we're committed to transforming your vision into reality. Whether you prefer a subtle enhancement or a bold statement, we're here to make it happen.
Throughout all our lightening services, we place utmost importance on the health of your hair by employing the Joico Blonde Life range. This lightener is formulated with a bonding agent, which effectively reduces hair damage and breakage typically associated with the lightening process. Consequently, your hair will exude a lustrous shine, feel resilient, and remain in excellent condition, ensuring a vibrant and healthy appearance.
For hair in need of reconstruction due to damage, we recommend the Joico K-Pak Repair System. Dubbed our stylists' "secret weapon" at the backwash, this treatment significantly enhances color and lightening results. With just four simple steps, it reconstructs, rebuilds, and protects damaged hair, ensuring breathtakingly healthy-looking locks following every color or blonding service.
For additional protection, we recommend the Joico Defy Damage Pro Series treatment. In just two simple steps, this treatment safeguards and strengthens hair bonds throughout chemical services, ensuring the healthiest-looking hair and stunning results.
