Balayage? Molton Brown tells us what it is

Balayage is one of the most modern, natural-looking, gorgeous hair colour techniques around, and more and more hair stylists are adding the service to their repertoires.

If you have any doubts about the popularity of balayage, take a close look at any celebrity 'It Girl'; the Hadids, Kardashians, Jenners, Taylor Swift, etc. On all of those constantly scrutinised heads of hair, you’ll see evidence of carefully crafted balayage highlights.

Balayage is a French word for painting. The technique originated in France and it’s a method of hand-painting sections of hair with lightener or hair color in order to create highlights that look as if the sun had lightened the hair naturally.

The best part about balayage highlights is that they are completely customised. That means your colorist will place them in the precise sections that will make your hair and your complexion look their very best.

You may think balayage is just for blondes, but that’s not the case. Balayage can be done on any colour: blonde, brunette, red and more - and it can also be adapted for any length.
