What balayage is

Balayage or highlights?

Short version: balayage is painted, highlights are foiled.

Painted · this page

Balayage

Swept on by hand, so it starts softer at the root and grows out without a line. You can go three or four months between visits and never look like you’re overdue. It’s the one to pick if you want dimension that looks like you’ve been somewhere sunny.

Foiled

Highlights

Placed in foils, root to end. That gets you more lift, more contrast, and more control: brighter, faster, more precise. It’s the one to pick if you want real brightness rather than a suggestion of it.

Plenty of people end up with both. If you’re not sure, say so when you book. Your stylist will look at your hair and tell you honestly which one gets you where you’re going. See our highlights

What to expect

We don’t rush this. Hand-painting is slow, careful work, and the alternative is a rushed job you’ll be living with for four months.

  1. The conversation

    You’ll sit down with your stylist and talk about where you want to land, including your final quote. Bring a photo if you have one.

  2. The work

    Painted, processed, washed, toned and finished. Settle in; nobody is watching the clock behind you.

  3. One honest question

    Come with an answer to how much upkeep do you actually want. That’s the question that decides everything.

Balayage questions, answered straight

Balayage at Adelaide Beauty starts at $200. Final price depends on your hair’s length, texture and what product it needs. Your stylist will go through it with you before she starts, so there are no surprises at the desk.

Balayage is hand-painted; highlights are placed in foils. Balayage grows out soft with no line and needs less upkeep. Highlights give you more lift, brightness and control. More on highlights

That’s the point of balayage: most guests stretch it to three or four months, because there’s no hard regrowth line to chase. A glaze in between will keep the tone fresh.

Any lightening asks something of your hair. That’s why we offer K18 as a $40 add-on: it rebuilds strength at the bond level after color. Your stylist will tell you honestly what your hair can take.

Usually yes, though going from very dark to very light can take more than one session to do properly. We’d rather tell you that up front than over-promise and damage your hair.
