A balayage is a great way to add a sun-kissed look to your hair. It’s a dye technique that lightens your hair by creating a few highlights. In addition to making your hair radiant without changing your entire colour, it’s a way to look like you’ve just returned from a sunny vacation.
With natural-looking and subtle results, the goal of balayage is to blend a few highlights into your locks. To do so, choose a few thin strands on top of your head and around your face, apply some bleach on them and then use a gloss to seal the hair cuticle. In order to get long-lasting colour, protect yourself from UV rays, sea salt and chlorine by using the right adapted products.
To highlight your balayage, curl a few strands with a large barrel curling iron then spray on a veil of texturizing product over your entire head.

Choose a dye kit to colour your entire head and, most importantly, don’t forget to stock up on moisturizing products such as nourishing masks to maintain and soften your new lightened locks.
To highlight your warm shades, straighten your hair as much as you can with a flat iron and use a veil of shine spray.
