Who It's For

You want colour that looks effortless day to day and works with your schedule. Balayage is ideal if you prefer soft regrowth, want to stretch appointments and like hair that looks polished without constant upkeep.

It suits first greys that need diffusing, previous highlights that look stripy, or anyone seeking face-framing brightness with believable dimension. Works on most hair types and lengths, from subtle sun-kissed tones to lighter, brighter looks.

Duration & Appointment Timing

First-time balayage usually takes 2.5 to 4 hours, depending on starting shade, thickness and how light you wish to go. We include time for consultation, precise application, glossing and a professional finish.

Maintenance visits are often quicker. A toner or face-frame refresh can bridge the gap between full services. If you have a special date, book ahead so your colour settles and looks its best.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Use a gentle, sulphate-free shampoo, nourishing conditioner and a weekly mask. Always apply heat protection before styling to preserve strength and shine.

Blonde or cool tones benefit from a purple or blue toning shampoo once a week to keep brassiness at bay. Limit chlorine and UV exposure or use a protective spray.

Plan a gloss and tone every 6 to 8 weeks to keep shine and tone fresh. Most clients refresh their balayage every 12 to 16 weeks, depending on how soft you like the result.
