What do we call a subtle brunette balayage these days? Expensive brown, rich brown? Something like that. Maybe we could name it after a food item. How about ‘salted caramel crunch frappe with no whip.’ 😝

Here’s a cool textured bob I did the other day. I slightly stacked the back and added a fringe in the front to give the cut a couple points of interest.

Lived-in highlights for my client. She’s super chill and down for almost anything that has low maintenance. I do my usual foiling placement on her followed up by a color melt to blend any lines.

If you’re brunette it’s time to upgrade your color with a foilayage. This will add a beautiful mixture of milk and dark chocolate tones to your hair for a brown that looks rich and dimensional.

Here’s a fun foilayage I did. She loves warm tones so we always go for a sandy, golden blonde with her toner. For curling I did s-waves and regular beach waves mixed together for a cool texture.

Here’s a gorgeous, blended foilayage I did the other day. We chose more of a neutral tone for her blonde because she’s going for beachy vibes. I curled with a 1.5” barrel iron and finished the curls with Air Control light hold hairspray.

Jen’s a badass. She’s rocking 22” custom colored volume wefts. If you want to try weft extensions be aware that maintenance is recommended around 8 weeks for a move-up. In between full reinstalls we can do a mini-move up if your hair will allow it. Full install starts at $200 a row and mini-move ups are $75 a row. Come see me for a consultation and we can talk about how to make your hair dreams come true.

What have you been struggling with lately when it comes to your hair? Too much frizz? No volume? Split ends? Dryness? Let me know in the comments below.

What’s your favorite product for air dry days? Mine is Be Curly Style Prep because it helps define my waves and it doesn’t feel crunchy or like I have a lot of product in my hair. Comment your favorites below.

For this appointment we transformed her hair from a very solid brassy blonde to a lived-in dimensional balayage. I love how the tone we chose suits her and I make it at point for every color client to look at swatches. This helps us figure out which tones look best with their natural hair color, skin tone and eyes.
