Get Ready for Summer Vacations With a Beachy Balayage
by Admin May 15 2022

Everyone loves the beautiful sun-kissed color hair gets after having spent many summer days on the beach. There's just no other color quite like it, or is there? Balayage can help you get ready for your summer vacations by mimicking that gorgeous sun-kissed color. You'll step onto the beach looking like you've already spent weeks soaking up the sun.
About Balayage
Simply put, balayage is a technique for highlighting your hair. Unlike traditional foil highlights with balayage, your colorist uses a sweeping motion to hand paint the color onto your hair. This creates soft, gradient highlights that start darker the roots and lighten toward the tips, just like the coveted natural sun-bleached look.
Perfect For All Hair Colors
Your hair color doesn't matter when it comes to balayage. This highlighting technique will look equally stunning on blondes, brunettes, and redheads alike. You can highlight with any color, including fantasy shades, but to get that sun-kissed look that you’re going for you should choose a color that is slightly lighter than your base color. As your hair grows the roots will blend in seamlessly, and as you spend more time in the sun your color will lighten further accentuating the effect.
Complete the Look With Beachy Waves
To get the full Beach babe effect you'll want to add some beachy waves to your style. If you want a wash-and-go style consider getting a perm so that your waves will last all summer. If you're not willing to commit long-term you can braid damp hair before you go to bed. When you get up take the braids out and finger comb to lightly fluff and separate your waves. And if you need to create waves in a hurry all you need is a little saltwater spray and a hairdryer with a diffuser. Spritz hair with the spray until slightly damp, and start scrunching with your hands as you dry your hair with the diffuser.
The talented colorist at Avanté Salon & Spa has been expertly trained in the latest balayage techniques. We will help you choose shades that flatter your skin tone and complement your natural color for a beautiful effect that will last all season long.
