FAQs
What is balayage and how is it different from highlights?
Balayage is a hair colouring technique where the colour is painted onto the hair in a sweeping motion, rather than being applied with foils or caps. The word “balayage” comes from the French term meaning “to sweep,” which describes how the colour is applied freehand. This results in a more natural, sun-kissed appearance with softer transitions between tones.
Unlike traditional highlights, which are typically placed uniformly and processed in foil for a more defined look, balayage is more customisable. It tends to have a more relaxed, blended finish, with no harsh lines or visible regrowth. This makes balayage an ideal choice for those looking for a low-maintenance colour that grows out beautifully.
How long does balayage last?
Balayage is known for its low-maintenance appeal, with results that typically last between eight to twelve weeks or longer, depending on hair type, colour intensity and aftercare. Because the technique creates a soft, blended transition between the natural hair and the coloured sections, it grows out without a clear regrowth line—unlike traditional highlights or all-over colour.
This means clients can go longer between salon visits without needing touch-ups. However, some people may choose to return sooner for toning treatments to refresh the shade or add gloss. Using sulphate-free shampoos, limiting heat styling and protecting the hair from UV exposure can help extend the life and vibrancy of balayage colour.
How do I maintain balayage between salon visits?
To maintain balayage between salon appointments, it’s important to protect the colour and keep the hair in good condition. Start by using a sulphate-free, colour-safe shampoo and conditioner, which will help preserve the tone and prevent premature fading. If your balayage includes lighter shades, a purple or blue toning shampoo can neutralise brassiness.
Deep conditioning treatments once a week help combat dryness and keep the hair looking shiny and healthy. Try to limit heat styling, and always use a heat protectant when using hot tools. Since balayage grows out softly, most people only need touch-ups every few months, but a gloss or toner every six to eight weeks can help refresh the colour in between.
