Soft Colour, Low Maintenance
Balayage is all about creating dimension, movement and brightness without the need for full regrowth appointments every few weeks. Unlike traditional foil highlights, balayage is hand-painted to softly blend the lightener through the mid-lengths and ends of your hair.
This means the colour grows out more naturally and looks good for longer between appointments. It’s ideal for clients wanting to lighten their look without committing to regular salon visits, making it a perfect fit for busy lifestyles.
At Eden Hair, we customise every balayage to your starting colour, texture, and tone preference. We also guide you through what’s realistic, how many sessions may be needed for brighter results, and what to expect during the process. We’ll recommend care routines, including toning shampoos, masks and heat protection, so your colour stays fresh and your hair remains healthy.
Our goal is to give you soft, low-maintenance colour that feels right for you and suits how you live.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does balayage last before needing a refresh?
Balayage can last anywhere from 3 to 6 months depending on your hair’s growth rate, starting colour and the level of lift. Toning every 4 to 6 weeks helps maintain the tone, while glossing treatments can refresh shine and blend as the colour fades between visits.
Can balayage work on all hair types?
Yes, balayage can be adapted to suit most hair types, including straight, wavy and curly hair. The technique, sectioning and lightener placement will vary depending on the texture and length. A professional stylist will tailor the approach so the finished colour blends well and looks natural.
Is balayage better than highlights?
It depends on the look you want and how often you want to maintain it. Balayage is more subtle and has a softer grow-out line, making it ideal for low-maintenance colour. Highlights tend to offer more contrast and lift from the roots, which may require more frequent touch-ups.
What helps balayage stay fresh between salon visits?
To keep balayage looking its best, use sulphate-free shampoo, apply a deep conditioner weekly and avoid too much heat styling. Purple or blue toning shampoo can help reduce brassiness. A salon toner every couple of months also helps refresh the colour and keep the tone balanced.
