When it comes to the beauty benefits of balayage, the list is endless. Not only is it the best way to get natural, sun-kissed color, but it’s also completely customized to your hair. Regrowth actually looks good because there’s no block line growing down your head – never a good look – and you can go months and months before having to get a touch-up. This is because, unlike regular highlights, balayage is hand-painted onto the hair (hence its name, which means ‘to sweep’ in French) to create a really natural, blended look that’s softer and subtler.
As Maria Dowling, Creative Director of Mariadowling Salon, says: “Balayage is a great way of using our creative skills as colorists to create a bespoke hair color palette for our clients. Painting in freehand on the top of the hair, rather than through it, allows us to create natural, sun-kissed highlights that catch the light and allow the hair color to move more freely along with the flow of the hair.”
