What Is Balayage?

Unlike traditional highlights that can look one-dimensional, balayage combines freehand colouring techniques with detailed foil placements and expertly applied colour that creates a natural gradient.

Our hairdressers paint colour into the hair to mimic the way the sun naturally lightens it, softly around the face and through the ends.

Why Choose A Balayage Specialist?

Balayage looks simple, but the perfect result takes a skilled hand and an artistic eye. That is why it pays to choose an experienced balayage hairdresser.

Mastering The Technique

Balayage is about colour theory, placement and blending, not just applying colour. Our specialists have the experience to make sure your balayage looks natural and dimensional.

Customised For You

No two heads of hair are the same. We consider your natural colour, texture and desired result to create a balayage that flatters your features and suits your haircut.

Healthy Hair Matters

Lightening can be demanding on hair. Our specialists use gentle products and techniques to minimise stress on your hair while maximising the colour, and recommend a personalised aftercare routine to keep your balayage looking its best.

The benefits Of Balayage

  • Natural dimension: balayage blends highlights softly, adding depth and texture for fuller, healthier-looking hair.
  • Low maintenance: the subtle graduation grows out beautifully, so you need fewer touch-ups and fewer salon visits.
  • Suits everyone: from blonde to brunette to red, balayage can be customised to flatter your natural colour.
  • Healthy-hair focus: gentle techniques and personalised aftercare keep your hair vibrant and strong.

Our Balayage Services

Every balayage begins with a consultation and is tailored to your hair, from fine and straight to thick and curly. Here are the main options we offer, each available on its own or with a cut and blow dry.

So relaxing and Amy had great intuition with colour. Very happy!
I’m really happy with the result. Amy understood exactly what I wanted without me having to explain much. She did a beautiful balayage, blending my greys and enhancing my natural color in a very subtle way. She also trimmed the ends just enough, while keeping the length as I wanted. I rarely leave a salon this satisfied. She was lovely throughout the whole appointment. I’ll definitely be coming back to her next time.
Last minute make up booking for a wedding, really listened to what I wanted and did such an amazing job. I would highly recommend!! Super nice space too

90min Swedish Relaxation: Unbelievable massage, it’s very clear that Kanako knows the physiology of the human body very well and is able to follow the lines of tension with expert precision. Perfect, consistent pressure and her awareness of my comfort throughout made it a great experience. Will definitely be back and would highly recommend her services. Thank you Kanako 🙏🏻

What a gem of a beauty salon! I can comfortably say that not only is environmental impact prioritised, but so is quality of the work and satisfaction of customers. I have gone to standalone salons for nails and hair separately and this salon outdoes them every time. When I get my treatments done, not only do they look fantastic straight after, but they also last so long! Could not recommend highly enough

Balayage FAQs

Because of the soft, graduated grow-out, balayage is beautifully low maintenance. Most clients visit every three to four months, which is less frequent than traditional highlights.

We recommend a low-tox, colour-safe routine to protect your tone. Minimise heat styling where possible, use regular hydrating treatments, and keep your ends fresh with regular trims.

Foils and highlights provide a more uniform, defined lift from the root. Balayage is for a soft, sun-kissed finish that looks lived-in and natural.

Definitely. Balayage adds refined, dimensional depth to brunettes and darker bases. If you have very dark hair and want a significant lift, we may suggest achieving your goal over two sessions to protect the health of your hair.

Not with our healthy-hair approach. As the colour is hand-painted and doesn’t always require full saturation, it can be gentler than other methods. We use high-performance, low-tox products and bond-building treatments to keep your hair strong.

Expect to be with us for three to four and a half hours, depending on your hair type and desired result. We take the time to get the placement perfect, so you can relax while we look after your hair.

You wont need to choose, simply show us some inspiration of your desired result or if you dont have one we can work together to figure this out and we will decide on the best technique or blend of techniques to achieve your desired resultToggle Content

Use the professional home care we suggest and book a quick gloss or toner refresh between main appointments. This keeps your colour cool, bright and free of unwanted warmth.Toggle Content
