Balayage is a hair coloring technique where the color is painted onto the hair in a freehand manner, creating a natural, sun-kissed look. Balayage results are softer, more blended transitions between the darker and lighter sections of hair, giving it a more organic and less uniform appearance. The technique allows for more personalized placement of color, which can enhance facial features and create a more customized effect. It's popular for its low-maintenance nature, as the grow-out is less noticeable than with traditional highlights

A full highlight is a coloring technique where highlights are applied throughout the entire head, from the front to the back and from the top to the bottom layers. This method involves sectioning the hair and applying lightener or color to strands using foils or other methods to achieve a more uniform, all-over lightening effect. Full highlights create a brighter, more dramatic change in color, adding dimension and contrast throughout the hair. This technique is ideal for those looking to significantly lighten their overall hair color or achieve a consistent highlighted look across their entire head.

A 1/2 highlight, or partial highlight, involves applying highlights to only part of the hair, usually focusing on the top section, sides, and sometimes the crown. This technique leaves the hair underneath mostly untouched, allowing for a more natural look with added brightness and dimension around the face and on the surface layers. It's a great option for those seeking a subtle lift or who want to refresh their color without the full commitment of an all-over highlight. It also tends to be lower maintenance than a full highlight, as the regrowth is less noticeable

A 1/4 highlight, also known as a mini or face-framing highlight, focuses on highlighting a small, targeted section of the hair, typically around the face or the hairline. This technique is used to add subtle brightness and dimension in specific areas, often to enhance facial features or refresh existing color. It's a quick and low-maintenance option that can create a natural, sun-kissed effect without the commitment of a more extensive highlighting process. Perfect for those looking for a slight enhancement or touch-up between full or partial highlight services.
