Balayage & Ombré

Balayage & Ombré Hair Colour at Gavin Ashley Hair Salon, Bury St Edmunds

Balayage is one of the most popular hair colour trends and the team at Gavin Ashley is highly skilled in creating the latest looks including blonde balayage, red balayage and fashion balayage and ombré.

So what exactly is balayage? This low-maintenance hair colour is usually hand-painted in vertical sections throughout your hair, leaving your base colour at the roots and mid-lengths, growing lighter towards the ends. Often we create a sun-kissed blonde balayage, but we can also rustle up just about any colour including red balayage, pastel balayage shades and fashion balayage looks.

Please note:   The minimum age for colouring hair in our salon is 16. 

Balayage Vs Ombré

Balayage provides a natural-looking, sun-kissed hair colour achieved through highlights and is a great hair colouring technique to try if you are nervous about dying your hair or new to colouring your hair.

Ombré is defined as when your hair colour gradually blends from one colour to another. It’s a great way to have fun with hair colour with the dark to light hair colour graduation. You can have the ombré hair colour technique on short, medium or long-length hair.

On-Trend Blonde Balayage

The great thing about balayage is that it can work on everyone – whether blonde hair, brown hair, or red hair. Popular balayage trends are ash blonde balayage and caramel balayage hair and we can create personalised hair colours to suit your face shape and style.

You can have a balayage bob or a mid-length balayage, or balayage for long hair. If you after long, fairytale hair, we can even create a long balayage hairstyle using hair extensions.

Face Frame Balayage

Not sure whether you are ready to go for a complete balayage look? Then opt for face-framing hair colour instead. Also known as money piece highlights this popular colouring technique works to contour your facial features and enhance your look. Adding lighter colours can make a narrow face look a little wider, and adding darker shades can give the impression of a slimmer face.

Colour Melt Hair

There are so many types of balayage, including babylights, root melt, root stretching and colour melts which give a rooty, natural finish as well as free-hand balayage highlights for a natural finish.
