Beautiful Balayage
Posted on: June 10, 2009Kendra always had foils used on her hair until she came to the salon. Our senior colorist Mira Herre, hand painted these beautiful highlights and lowlights using the balayage technique. We processed her color for about 30 minutes, and then followed it with a beautiful golden glaze that not only brightened her highlights but blended her natural base color. After Mira was finished, I then cut long layers giving her hair a stronger shape. Kendra was so suprized at the difference between balayage and foils, not only for its multi dimensional effect but also her hair has never been in such great condition.

Hi I always get foils done and this sounds pretty interesting…Any places around Akron, Ohio that do this technique? And what kind of extensions would be the least damaging and most natural looking for hair? I have a little longer than shoulder length hair already but it’s kind of dull and boring. Please E-mail me I’ll forget to check this website.

Hi Gail,
I did some research but unfortunately I didn’t find anyone in your area who specializes in balayage. If you do have a positive experience somewhere please post it here so others can benefit as well. Good luck!
Best wishes,
Eva

Hi Elizabeth,
I do think that Wella is a very good color line. I’ve used most of the professional lines during the course of my career if you have specific questions about any of them. As for my balayage technique, it’s not something that I can discuss on this forum but I know that you have also inquired about taking a class at our salon. Hope to meet you one day.

Hi Eva,
I have been having my hair done in NYC using the balayage technique for a few years now and love it. I now live on Long Island with 3 children and find it difficult to get into the city as often as I would like. I am seeking a colorist on the south shore, suffolk county that you would recommend. Thank you.

Hi McKenzie,
L’Oreal Professionel offers balayage classes around the country, so you can check their website about classes in your area. I will be teaching a class that incorporated cut, color (including balayage) and makeup for them in San Francisco March 27 & 28 of this year. I know that it’s far from you but if you would like more information about registering for the class, the entire 2011 class schedule will be posted on their website in about a week or two.

Okay Eva … After about ten years of mediocre to bad highlights on my blonde hair ( now I have terrible blonde streak-y highlights :(. ) I am dererminded to find a colorist who knows what they are doing. Can you recommend a colorist who specializes in balayage in southern California ?

Try Nancy Braun. She was working at Christophe in Beverly Hills until recently, but not sure if she’s still there. If not, I’m sure they can tell you how to find her. Hope this helps.
