In the current popularity for hair colour trends, there are a variety of hair colouring techniques being used by hair experts who are very experienced professionals across the globe. One of these French colouration techniques for hair is the balayage that is gaining the most attention from women who are looking to experiment with the latest trends in the hair and beauty industries. The technique of colouring hair was created in the 1970’s, and is gaining popularity in the present. It is done using free hands, rather than traditional techniques such as caps or foils that are commonly used to highlight hair. Women with shorter hair or bob hairstyles can opt for this balayage technique, however it is a better choice for women with shoulder-length hair, or longer hair.

You can select a range of hair colouration finishing results, ranging from funky to strong to soft and natural. Because of its low maintenance, it’s becoming the most popular trend. Everyone wants to look fashionable and show off their best appearances with the latest hair colours but they don’t have the time to make regular visits to the salon every few weeks. This cost-effective and reliable hair colour procedure is widely used by the majority of the fashionable and stylish group. The majority of models and celebrities have had this style completed by their professional colourists. These hair professionals divide the hair into various sections. Using a balayage artist’s brush by painting the strands from the upper areas in a sweep motion, similar to how they would perform the highlight for that particular section.

This method creates a sexy and soft appearance! This colouring technique requires skilled professional colourists and equipment. It’s better to engage an expert rather than doing it yourself and then regret it forever. Making a mistake can cause more damage than the amount you are paying a professional to do the task.

While balayage certainly looks better when hair is wavy or curly, it’s extremely attractive for straight hair, too. There aren’t any harmful side results if you choose to have your hair straightened. The harsh lines of colour don’t cause any harm to the hair. Whatever hair’s texture or length, this method is suitable for all. It is possible to create highlights on narrow small sections or choose a large chunk of hair. The option is entirely yours! It’s all about the confidence you have carried in the look. The sun-kissed beachy style is perfect for ladies who have wavy or curly hair. It provides them with a natural ethereal appearance. But for women who have straight hair, balayage with highlights and some natural tones have worked and blend on it harmoniously to prevent the harsh demarcation lines between colours that will result in incredible looks.blonde balayage on straight hair 23

This method also produces better results for hair that is layered, therefore straight hair balayage looks much more attractive if the hair has been cut into layers since it provides a bit of movement and flow. As balayage is not related to the roots, this technique begins at partial way down the length of hair so as to create an unique colour on the ends, which doesn’t look the same as the top.

If it’s really difficult and complicated to decide whether straight hair balayage will look stunning or not an expert opinion is required. A qualified hair colourist can give you the best advice as well as a range of haircut choices to pick from to entail the most beautiful balayage effect and finishing.

We see a lot of the balayage technique swept through long hair with wavy curls and tousled bob hairstyles. However, the truth is that balayage on straight hair is equally captivating as the textured and wavy version. While smooth waves and beachy wavy or curly hair increase the dimension and definition, dead-straight locks permit the freehand balayage highlights to sparkle with all their artistic painting glory.
