Top 7 Trending Hair Coloring Techniques in 2023!
Balayage: Balayage—meaning “sweep” in French—is a hair coloring technique that involves hand-painting or “sweeping” color onto the hair to create a graduated, natural-looking effect. It's a low-maintenance style that requires fewer touch-ups than traditional highlights.
Reverse Balayage: When dark colors are used to add lowlights near the roots and throughout the hair to bring depth to your hue. If your blonde balayage has become too bright or brassy, reverse balayage can tone it down while maintaining the depth and dimension(1).
Ombré: Ombré is a hair coloring technique that involves a gradual fade from one color to another. The result is a natural-looking transition from darker roots to lighter ends.
Foilyage: Foilyage is a combination of the balayage and traditional foil highlighting techniques. It involves hand-painting the hair and then wrapping small sections in foils to intensify the color.
Babylights: Babylights are very fine highlights that are placed throughout the hair to create a soft, natural look. They are often used to create a sun-kissed effect.
Root Smudging Techniques!
Root smudging: Root smudging is a technique that involves blending the hair color at the roots to create a softer, more natural-looking transition from the roots to the rest of the hair.
Shadow roots: Shadow roots involve intentionally darkening the roots of the hair to create a shadow effect. This technique is often used with pastel or bright colors to create a more edgy, unconventional look.
