The Balayage technique has become very popular among lovers of dyed hair and this for the beautiful effects it offers to the hair. If you want a change around the winter holidays, but still want to keep a natural look, then the balayage technique is for you.
Why? Because this technique is famous for its natural effects, especially if you have light hair. In some cases, this technique only “brings to light” a few hairs, so that your hairstyle looks fresh and yet, gives the idea of change.
For women who want to, the balayage technique can be more intense, so the change is obvious. However, balayage remains a note of brightness brought to your hairstyle.
What is balayage?
You have to admit, the term sounds very fancy, but it comes from French and means “to sweep”. The painting technique is related to this sense, as it is done with the free hand, without using aluminum foils.
Thus, the movements of the hands are like those of vertical painting or maturation. The reason why the balayage technique is so popular is the naturalness of the hair after dyeing. The technique leaves the sensation of a natural look, with fine accents of light hair, touched as if by the sun’s rays. The shadow technique, for example, cannot give this natural look.
Who is the balayage technique suitable for?
Even if at our place, at Lucicosm Beauty Studio, the technique is extremely popular and required by our visitors, there are some conditions that you must meet in order for this technique to be applied to you.
In principle, to apply this balayage technique it is necessary that the length of your hair is below the earlobe. Otherwise, the color could not be outlined.
So, yes, the balayage technique is suitable for anyone with medium and long hair. It offers naturalness, shine and the much desired change.
To keep the whole process simple, it is preferable to apply the balayage on a hair that has not been dyed before. Of course, it can be applied to dyed hair, but the process is much more difficult.
If you are brunette or have dyed hair in dark colors, then it would take a bleach to get the balayage effect you want.
How much do I have to take out of pocket for a balayage?
The first time I heard of this technique was a few years ago, when the cost of such a procedure was (compared to today) huge. The specialized salons took high prices on such a procedure. That’s right, the products used were much more expensive. Thus, in order to cover the products, the price charged to the customers was higher.
But, as it was so beloved and a lot of women preferred the balayage technique, it came to have a much more affordable price.
However, the price of the balayage procedure is not a fixed one, but depends on the length of your hair.
It depends on how many dye tubes are used for the procedure on your hair. Balayage can also be obtained by dyeing without bleaching, partial or total bleaching, depending on the hair color.
The prices for the balayage technique for medium hair start from 200 lei and can reach 400, depending on how rich your hair is.
For long hair, the prices vary between 300 and 500 lei. Keep in mind that the length of your hair and its density are extremely important. Thus, if you have sparse hair, then for sure the prices will be lower.
When you arrive at Lucicosm Beauty Studio you can ask us for a rough estimate
price, to know in advance what the approximate amount you will pay.
You dyed your hair. How do you maintain the balayage?
Well, very simple. And that’s because this technique is one of the easiest to maintain. There is no need to repaint it often, because if you are comfortable with the look and your natural hair is light in color, then the grown hair will look really good. Moreover, there is no need for regular maintenance, but only the use of a shampoo that is special for dyed hair. You are free to use moisturizing hair masks, because any dyed hair needs hydration. Whether you choose to make them at home or buy them, hair masks are essential for hair care.
