Balayage is a hair coloring technique in which stylists hand-paint highlights into individual strands by using paint brushes or their fingers. It looks natural yet modern and works for any color of hair–from blonde to brunette to red!

Discover a delicious bronde to transform your complexion and add an effortless girl-next-door charm. Balayage brondes offer risk-free lightening without making an all-over commitment like an all-over ombre does.

Tortoiseshell

Tortoiseshell balayage blends warm and rich tones like those found on tortoiseshell frames, complementing ashy blonde hues that are predicted to remain popular until 2024. It works best when applied to naturally dark locks who wish to lighten them up; using either hair dye to achieve this look or highlight techniques may help.

Another alternative is ecaille, which is similar to ombre but less dramatic and involves ribbons of caramel, honey and gold that soften darker brown or bronde tones. This style can add sun-kissed dimension without making a full commitment to full ombre or sombre transition.

If you opt for tortoiseshell balayage highlights, your colorist may suggest using sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners in order to prolong their appearance and ensure freshness of look. This will allow your highlights to last longer while remaining looking vibrant.

Ashy Blonde

Ashy balayage is an ideal look for blonde girls looking for something other than platinum or silvery white strands, creating soft shimmery buttery or greyish blond tones across your entire head – it flatters all cuts and lengths and requires very minimal upkeep: simply ask your stylist for a “babylight”, requesting one and expecting subtle dimension and natural-looking fades as it grows out!

Adopt the beachy blonde balayage trend currently dominating lobs, and you are sure to turn heads. Experiment with your wavy bob by adding beautiful tints of dove gray and sparrow brown that resemble bird wings – this captivating hue works wonders to soften your face frame while complementing darker skin tones beautifully!

Brunettes can take advantage of warm caramel balayage that flows smoothly into rich chocolate hues for an exquisite yet seductive hair color, adding major shine and sun-kissed effects while providing natural contrast against dark roots.

Smoky Silver

Dark brown balayage with subtle silver and grey tones can be an eye-catching choice for natural brunettes, according to Hairstory contributor and colorist Zoe Irwin. “This eye-catching shade looks especially flattering on full and lush lobs,” according to Zoe. When coupled with side parting and tousled strands, the effect is both chic and naturally three dimensional!

For those wanting to keep their blonde roots, smoky grey balayage can add depth without the brassiness of yellow tones, while also complementing cool skin tones. Just keep up your maintenance by regularly glazing hair so it remains in its fresh, cool tone.

Trying a more subdued lavender hue might be just what’s needed if bold green is too overwhelming for you. This delicious pastel shade has quickly become one of the trendiest on social media and it will surely garner compliments. Additionally, lavender offers great options for going grey without full head of white highlights – plus its popularity will bring compliments!

Dimensional Red

Recent years have witnessed an escalation of natural lived-in hair color trends. Now they are transitioning into more subtle hue shifts that require less maintenance but offer gradual change of hue. This transition makes an excellent option for those who seek low maintenance transitions of their color transition.

For instance, if you have dark brown hair, a stylist can create an effortless yet natural-looking transition by hand-painting warm babylights on framing strands around your face to form soft babylights and transition colors smoothly and naturally into each other. This look works especially well on brunettes because softer transitions allow more subtle looks to emerge naturally over time.

Jewel-toned balayage offers those looking to elevate the balayage trend an opportunity to add drama and luxury to their look, with deep emerald greens, sapphire blues and amethyst purples as inspiration for vibrant color options reminiscent of precious gemstones – think deep emerald greens, sapphire blues and amethyst purples being popular choices. Your stylist will help recommend shades which best match both your complexion and base hair color for maximum impactful results!
