What is Balayage Hair Color?

Balayage highlights/hair painting allows for a sun-kissed, natural looking color with less noticeable regrowth. This creative way to add dimension to hair is now one of the most sought after hair services in the world.

Balayage highlights give you that “lived in” look with the roots remaining deeper and the lightness slowly increasing down the hair strand. This hair coloring technique is painted on the surface of your hair, with all over color at the roots if needed. Hair stylists use a freehand technique, painting in the highlights without foil, to make the hair color blend seamlessly. It takes an artistic eye, and should work with the haircut to enhance every shape.As your natural color grows in, the highlights create a flawless look as it grows out.

Sine Qua Non Balayage Technique

Using the best balayage techniques, our Chicago hair stylists consult thoroughly with each guest, deciding on hair colors based on your hair texture, skin and the desired result. Our hair stylists are able to work with any hair color, hair length and hair texture. Balayage can sometimes be time consuming, so leave 3 hours just in case your color needs time to get as light as you want it. From blonde balayage to ‘bronde’ (dark brown to blonde) balayage, Sine hair stylists have the talent and experience, plus a wealth of knowledge to work with any hair type.

Best Balayage Maintenance

Balayage hair coloring was designed to be the most natural, therefore easiest highlighting to maintain. We suggest our clients come back every 6 weeks for a hair trim and for a balayage touch up, every 2 to 3 months.
