The tricky part here is getting all those varied brown and blonde colors and making it seem like they’re just one color. Good thing there’s a professional for that.

Balayage on Asian Hair

How would you describe this look?

This look is a mix of teal and blue highlights on Asian hair. Teal is my client’s favorite color and she just feels like herself when she has this in her hair. I think everyone has a certain color they really vibe with, and this vibrant yet calming teal and blue shade definitely reflect her soul’s colors. My favorite thing about this style is the juxtaposition that it creates. She is naturally a very calm and introverted person but feels comfortable in this color, which is definitely more eye-catching and noticeable.

Any advice for someone considering it?

The vibrancy of the color will fade. If you don’t want to come back into the salon every 3 months to refresh the color, you will have to get a direct dye either from Sally’s Beauty or your local drugstore ie. London Drugs/Shoppers to refresh your own color. Some brands that have these type of colors are Punky Colors, Pulp Riot, Joico Intensity or Splat.

I never put limitations on which hairstyles or hair colors will fit my clients. My job is to push my clients out of their comfort zone and try something new. I love change and life is all about going through different experiences even when it comes to their hair!

How would you describe this look?

This particular balayage took some time and technique to achieve. First, I pre-lightened the hair with a full head of foils, as the client already had a dark balayage, to begin with. The client wanted a lighter look. A level 5 natural was used on the roots of the hair then blended with 10.1 to achieve the ash blonde.

After blow-drying the hair straight, I finished with a hair straightener with a trim on the ends of the client’s hair to complete this look.

Any advice for someone considering it?

It’s a subtle highlighting technique that isn’t as drastic as changing your hair color, so it doesn’t matter whether you have brown, blonde, or red hair. Also, if you’re looking for highlights that are as low maintenance as you can get then the balayage is for you. As the highlights grow out, it’ll look totally intentional.

Keep in mind that a balayage requires lightening and that means you will need your hair bleached. The darker the starting color, the more work it will take to achieve your desired look. As with any dye job, there are certain things you can do to help maintain your color. One of the best things you can do is use good quality products that are sulfate-free. It is also important to shower in lukewarm water, as hot water can strip essential oils leaving your hair dry.

This might be the most important thing for balayage hair – you’ll want to wash it once a week with purple shampoo and conditioner made just for ash blondes. No matter what color your root is, this stuff helps maintain your ashy toner on your balayage.

Long Dark Red Balayage

Cosmetologist @ Douglas J. Aveda Institute in East Lansing. MI


How would you describe this look?

This look has a fiery violet wine vibe. Our goal was to have lots of dimensions yet intense color. She just wants a sassy look and feels to her hair. She has a face frame that she loves with her face shape and that looks fabulous with lots of curls. Lots of layers were a must as well. My favorite part is the color we achieved using Aveda color. A lot of people think Aveda is hard to use for intense looks, but it can be done!

Any advice for someone considering it?

Make sure your hair can handle lightening enough to build up being intense. Use lots of protein treatments and trims to keep it looking fresh overall. I always inform intense hair color lovers to not over shampoo to keep color bright. Always have fun with your hair!

How would you describe this look?

It is a deep multidimensional brunette balayage on a long bob. My favorite thing is the subtlety to it. It’s definitely got different tones and levels to it, even though there isn’t a lot of contrast. Although, it’s still eye-catching. The best part is that it complements the long bob very well too, but I think it would be a good option for any length.

Any advice for someone considering it?

It would depend on their hair to start with. This client had dark long hair, and she’s petite with an oval-shaped face. She’s incredibly low maintenance (I’d like to add that I did a demi-permanent black color as the lowlight that I painted through.), so this was an easy choice for her! Also, she’s letting it grow out a little bit now, so it’s just an easy even longer bob. The grow-out is easy and so cute at every step.

As far as styling goes, I used a blow-out cream through her ends, a root lifter on her roots, and a Denman brush for the blow dry. Then, I sprayed it with a heat spray and lightly straightened the ends with low heat. Although, she could have gotten away with just the blowout.
