balayage highlights-Ombre highlights

It's the CRAZE!
If you're like me, you love to read and scan the pix in the latest fashion magazines to see what's the latest gossip and latest hair trends. It's where to go to see in hard print; on line is great but you can hold it and study. There is nothing like ripping out a magazine page, folding it up in to your purse and running off to the make up counter, hair products aisle or your hair designer!

If you have noticed the last few years, highlights are so natural, so sun kist, so Balayage and Ombre!! Colors are melting from darker tops to lightest tips, seamlessly and gorgeously! There are no harsh lines, but bold color is apparent. You can be warm and golden, copper or apricot however you can be camel, latte or mocha chino as well! Whatever your flavor, it can be accomplished using the Balayage and ombre techniques.
What are those techniques? The word Balayage in French means "to sweep". Colors are hand painted on but also  on to selectively chosen hair that would mimic hair that would be lightened by the sun as a gal lays on the deck of a yacht. Perhaps maybe by the pool too! These selected strands start out as few around the crown and face down to heavier and more predominate at the mid lengths and ends for that sunny, sunkist glow. It may even remind you of hair that little girls get from playing outdoors in the summer time!! Gorgeous and natural, Balayage highlights are here to stay.
Look in all the fashion mags for models and movie stars hair styles and colors. You'll see softer yet bold colors of highlights and hair color placement. It's all about the color placement for the natural, sunkist look.
So, even if you live in the Raleigh area, you can look like you live at the beach part time with Balayage Hair coloring!

I must admit, I love the look of balayage and ombre highlighting techniques. see more before/after pix at http://www.pamperryhair.com/
