Everything You Need To Know
Is Balayage Suitable For All Hair Types?
Balayage is incredibly versatile and works beautifully on most hair types. It looks particularly stunning on medium to long hair with natural waves or curls, where the hand-painted colour creates soft movement and dimension. On fine hair, a more subtle balayage is usually recommended for the most natural-looking finish.
Are Babylights & Root Stretch The Same?
Not quite. Babylights are ultra-fine highlights created using foils to mimic naturally sun-kissed hair. Root Stretch blends darker roots into lighter lengths for a softer grow-out, while balayage is a freehand painting technique that creates seamless, natural dimension.
How Should I Prepare For My Appointment?
No special preparation is needed before your balayage appointment. If you're planning both a haircut and colour, we recommend having your haircut first so your stylist can create the perfect colour placement for your finished style.
How Long Does Balayage Take?
Every balayage service is customised to your hair length, thickness, condition and desired result. Most appointments take between 1 to 3 hours. During your complimentary consultation, your stylist will provide a personalised timeframe and quotation.
