A Style Guide to Balayage & Highlights

Balayage & highlight styles have really taken off this year becoming the trendiest ways to lighten your hair.

Add some extra dimension with a Balayage ultra-light face-framing pieces. This is a fairly low-maintenance technique that preserves your base color and blends your natural roots for a softer grow out.

Highlights are another popular way to lighten your hair and bump up the shine. Unlike a Balayage that preserves your base color, Highlights begin at the root of the hair and go all the way down to the ends. If your ultimate goal is to go from dark to light all over, then highlights may be the way to go.

Find the perfect Highlights or Balayage style below, and ask for it on your upcoming color appointment at Salon Ziba NYC.
