Balayage Hair Colour & Highlights
Discover the Art of Balayage at Delilah Hair Studio
Balayage, a French term meaning ‘to sweep away’ or ‘to paint,’ originated in Paris during the 1970s. This artful technique involves freehand painting on the hair, designed to mimic the natural sun-kissed highlights achieved after long summer days.
At Delilah Hair Studio, we embrace the foundational spirit of balayage to create stunning, personalised results that reflect your individual beauty.
The Delilah Balayage Technique
Delilah Hair Studio is not just about hair colour; it’s about enhancing your natural beauty. Our signature balayage method integrates perfectly with our specialised dry-haircuts and styles for curly hair, ensuring that the colour compliments rather than competes with your natural hair texture.
This approach is ideal for creating soft, diffused highlights that add depth and dimension to curly, wavy, or straight hair. It’s designed to be low maintenance, with a seamless grow-out period that only requires a touch-up once or twice a year.
Here at Delilah, we’ve perfected our own balayage technique that beautifully complements both our pioneering dry-haircuts and our expertise in managing curly and wavy hairstyles. Our approach is simple: enhance the natural beauty and texture of your hair without overwhelming it. This technique allows for minimal maintenance, offering a graceful grow-out period and requiring only occasional touch-ups.
Who Should Opt for Balayage?
Balayage and freehand hair painting at Delilah Hair Studio offer a gentle enhancement of 1 to 4 levels of lift, ideal for achieving natural warmth or a breezy, beach-inspired look. Envision the soft hues of summery butter blondes, deep chocolates, rich chestnuts, vibrant coppers, and lively red tones.
This technique is not suited for those seeking more than 5 levels of lift or desiring ash or icy blonde shades; for such results, please consider our specialised foiling services.
Balayage is particularly effective for adding subtle interest to greying hair, enhancing rather than concealing the natural silver and grey tones, making it a perfect choice for those desiring a hint of colour with minimal upkeep.
If you’re looking for a hair colour solution that requires low maintenance yet offers beautiful, lasting results, our freehand hair painting is the perfect choice.
Why Choose Balayage for Curly and Wavy Hair?
Freehand hair painting is ideally suited for curly and wavy hair, enhancing rather than overshadowing your naturally beautiful hair texture. Our skilled stylists apply clay lighteners with gentle, precise strokes, creating diffused, stripe-free warmth that integrates seamlessly into the dynamic patterns of your curls and waves.
For those desiring a bit more impact, our hair painting techniques can introduce bold, dramatic ribbons of colour, incorporating vibrant reds and rich copper tones to elevate your look.
This method ensures a smooth transition of colour, providing a subtle diffusion that enhances your hair’s natural texture, adding warmth and vibrancy without overwhelming its inherent beauty.
We use clay-based lighteners that are significantly milder than traditional hair lighteners, allowing us to preserve the health and integrity of your curls and waves while minimising any potential damage to your hair and its natural curl pattern.
