So Long Ombre.. Hello Balayage!

Posted on by Tara Esnes

The ombre trend has definitely faded, but there’s a new highlighting trend in town! Say hello to balayage, a popular highlighting technique that’s gathering a lot of attention, especially for Spring and Summer. Instead of the dramatic, contrasting colors that ombre provides, balayage is a subtle, more natural sun-kissed look. Balayage is actually a french word meaning “to swoop” or “to paint,” which creates a softer, beautiful and almost all-natural look. With summer rapidly approaching, a lot of your clients are going to want lighter hair… especially since celebrities like Lana Del Rey and Khloe Kardashian have been seen sporting it!

But are you prepared for the balayage trend? Here at Pure Spa Direct, we just got in the ColorTrak Tools Balayage Board and Brush Set that will have you all set up for this latest hair trend. This brush contains shorter brush bristles for precise coloring, as well as a slightly curved board on 2 side to better suit head shape! You’ll also be quite comfortable performing this service, as the handle allows for stability.


You’ll also need to protect each highlight! Check out our film roll which is specifically for balayage treatments. For all of your salon highlighting needs, please click here, and make sure you’re prepared this summer for your clients looking to get that sun-kissed balayage look!
