BALAYAGE
Balayage is a French hair coloring technique where the color is painted on the hair by hand as opposed to the old school highlighting methods with foils and cap highlighting. The free-hand application allows to achieve a more natural and modern effect with subtle transitions between the chosen hues, whether blonde, brunette, red or unnatural colors, such as popular pastels and even neons.
OMBRE
Ombre is great for the more daring girl, it is definitely more noticeable and typically more maintenance. Ombre is kind of like color blocking, there are no dark pieces left on the bottom to help keep it natural, just a nice transition between the colors.
COLOR MELT
With color melting, the colors in your hair should blend together so flawlessly that you shouldn’t be able to tell where one hair color ends and another begins. Color melting is a technique that blends highlights with the base color of your hair so there’s no harsh lines or clear distinction between the different colors.
HAIR PAINTING
With this technique, the hair is painted freely, by hand and usually with an actual paint brush and palette. Hair is laid flat and is separated by plastic wrap. The lightener or color is not placed in any specific pattern but where it should be seen. This technique creates natural-looking and softer tones.
HILITES
Hair highlighting/lowlighting is changing a person's hair color, using lightener or haircolor to color hair strands. Highlights can be done in natural or unnatural colors. Hair lightened with toner or permanent color will be permanent until new growth begins to growth. Highlighted hair will make the hair appear fuller. Therefore, it is recommended on people with thin and fine hair.
HAIR EXTENSIONS
Artificial hair integrations, more commonly known as hair extensions or hair weaves, add length and/or fullness to human hair. Hair extensions are usually clipped on to other hair by incorporating additional human or synthetic hair. Natural human hair can be permed, dyed, and flat ironed whereas synthetic hair cannot. The methods include tape in extensions, clip in or clip on extensions, fusion method, weaving method, and wigs.
