WHAT DOES BALAYAGE MEAN?
As we noted earlier that they invented Balayage in the '70s, it is also important to note that the word itself "balayer" is of French origin, which means "sweeping."
It is the only name that we recognize this TechniqueTechnique. However, sometimes it is referred to as biolage, bayalage, baylage, etc...all those other names are wrong as the right word is "balayage" which is pronounced as /ˈbalɪjɑːʒ/.
WHAT IS BALAYAGE?
The balayage hair dying TechniqueTechnique involves a hair coloring procedure whereby a color or lightener is "swept" in small triangle sections of the hair by hand.
Stylists do it with a paddleboard and a brush. That results in a beautiful, natural-looking highlight that looks lighter near the ends of the hair. Also, it feels softer at the level of the hair.
Women describe it most times as a "beachy" and "sun-kissed" hair because of how soft and smooth they feel when touched.
The first time the TechniqueTechnique appeared in Paris, it was called "Balayage à Coton," because of how cotton stripes are used by colorists used (and some still use) in the separation of the colored strands of hair from the uncolored ones.
Balayage in the USA
In the USA, it started trending in the 90's it has only reached the apex of its popularity in recent years. The TechniqueTechnique used to apply Balayage highlights is different in almost every salon.
It is the most requested color service by women all over the world. The French TechniqueTechnique of hand-painting highlights onto the hair, which creates such a natural and beautiful effect, has become the hottest trend.

BALAYAGE VS. OMBRE AND OTHER HIGHLIGHTS.
Many women still confuse other coloring techniques and styles with bayalage. Let's iron out all the differences!
Balayage vs. Highlights
Generally speaking, any strands of hair that are lighter than the base color is called "highlights," lowlights are darker strands, no matter the TechniqueTechnique used to make it.
Highlights that usually have a defined stripy look and a more noticeable regrowth line is known as "classic highlights." Often meshes, foils, or a highlighting cap are used in the design to make a Traditional highlight.
The styling is made from roots going down to the ends.
After that, the stylist lifts the root while applying color towards the ends of the hair. Use of Balayage highlighting TECHNIQUE results in blended, vertical streaks. That let glimpses of a darker shade throughout the length that is even at the ends of the hair.
They place the lighter parts of it strategically. Some start lower to the roots while others are higher and closer to the roots. Some look brighter at the ends of the hair.
Also, it is a technique that they use on the surface of the hair. A lightener or a hair dye is applied only on the top layer of each section of the hairpiece. Stylists don't do the saturation through strands. The roots of the hair are more diffused than any other part of the hair.
Balayage vs. Ombre
Ombre is NOT A TECHNIQUE, unlike balayage. Its a LOOK, A darker shade gradually washes to a lighter shade, with no more colored pieces at the ends of hair.
Bayalage is more customized than Ombre, this because the lighter shade is concentrated only from the mid-shaft to terms.
The transition is usually horizontal and well-defined. We know softer gradation as Sombre.
Ombre balayage is the next confusing term. That is a 'two-in-one' mix of the balayage technique and an ombre-ed style. Generally, it is a dark-to-light shading with highlights of it on the mid-shaft and ends of the hair.
BALAYAGE VS. OTHER TECHNIQUES AND STYLES.
FLUID HAIR PAINTING
This involves the process of applying a lightener/color with the client's head leaned back against a table as the stylist does the coloring.
FLAMYOYAGE
They create this with transparent adhesive strips, the TechniqueTechnique results in soft and smooth balayage-like or peek-a-boo highlights. It is not "open-air."
COLOUR MELT
When a stylist places 3-4 shades along the hair shaft and diffuses them together to get rid of the demarcation line.
BENEFITS OF BALAYAGE
Their MAIN BENEFITS are:
INDIVIDUALITY
To contour and frame your features appropriately, the colors will be chosen by your stylist because colors are custom-blended, the width of lighter strands and their placement has to be selected by your stylist and not you (balayage is sometimes called a non-invasive 'facelift');
LOW MAINTAINANCE
Roots are less noticeable when hair grows out, you'll forget about monthly touch-ups (some women visit the salon once per 6 months!);
UNIVERSALITY
Works for all ages, hair textures, base colors and hair lengths (except very short crops);
LESS DAMAGE
Bayalage causes less damage to hair when compared to techniques that use heat the all-over color.
DISADVANTAGES OF BAYALAGE
one of the few downsides of Balayage is that it doesn't cover grey hairs. It just incorporates the grey hair into your hairstyle. It makes them look like your original hair.
You'll have to make a root tint to balayage When it becomes impossible, and it will make you visit the salon once or twice every 4-6 weeks to retouch and cover the grey hairs.
As you can see, balayage highlights and greying hair are entirely compatible, just that it leaves you booking appointments with your colorist every month.
HOW TO CARE FOR BALAYAGE HAIR.
Any hair coloring may end up leaving the hair dry a little. Your hair requires developing a good conditioning strategy to maintain it together with your stylist and also choose high-quality products for colored locks and, finally, make sure to use the best heat-protectants when styling the hair.
That you don't need regular touch-ups does not mean you should completely forget about treating your hair in the salon. Healthy hair is the best bet on a balayage.
Specialists recommend scheduling monthly appointments to nourish, restore, and beautify your locked hair. For example, we require a toner monthly to get rid of brassiness, refresh the color, and add shine to your locks.
CONCLUSION
Balayage is not just a trend as we have seen; it is a very successful technique that is very successful as its demand continues to grow daily.
Even without makeup, you will look beautiful. The most famous stylists in the business predict it will never go out of style, and I think they are right.
