Balejaż in the past and today

In the past, balayage was performed on wide strands of hair, starting from the top of the head to the very ends. The effect was unnatural and the interference of the hairdresser was visible at first glance. Currently, hair stylists focus on naturalness. Balayage is only to emphasize the color of the hair. It is best if it is performed on very thin strands with the use of several similar tones of colors.

The currently fashionable balayage is not done from the top of the head - coloring begins in the middle of the hair length. This procedure is to give the hairstyle lightness and volume.
