The Best Balayage Hairdressers At Dudley's Salon In Bulwell, Nottingham

Our expert colourists at Dudley's Hair & Beauty Salon in Bulwell offer a range of hair colouring services so can create a variety of different looks including beautiful balayage and ombré hair colours.

Both techniques involve adding multiple blended colours to your hair, usually with the hair growing lighter as it reaches the ends.  The most popular effect is for a bespoke sun-kissed blonde balayage, although we can create all sorts of effects using different colours including red balayage and fashion colour balayage and ombré.

Please book in for a complimentary colour consultation so we can discuss the look you desire, assess your hair, and explain the process and costs.  We may also ask you to pop in for a quick allergy alert test (skin test) 48 hours prior to your colour appointment.

Shadow Root Balayage

Balayage with shadow roots is where your root area is coloured a darker shade. The mid lengths and ends are coloured a lighter shade. A shadow root style is very low-maintenance making this trendy colouring technique great for those seeking a low maintenance look as it does not require regular touch ups.

Wether you want a shadow root blonde, creative shadow root colour or want a brunette hair colour with shadow roots, our team of experts can help.

Foliayage Balayage At Dudley's Hair Salon In Bulwell

Foilayage

'Foilayage' is a perfect mixup of balayage & traditional highlights. It involves the same sweeping method used in freehand balayage, however, sections of hair are then wrapped in foil highlights instead of being left to air dry. This is to allow the hair to lighten further, intensifying the lifting effect of the highlights. The results are simply stunning!

Foilayage highlights are applied to the hair in V shapes, away from the root to provide natural looking regrowth. They are often placed around the front hairline to frame the face and define your features beautifull

Balayage 

What's the difference between balayage and ombré?  It's fair to say there are many different variations and names for balayage so it's always wise to show us some images of the looks you love.  We can then create a bespoke balayage for you based on those images. 

In simple terms, balayage and ombré both involve adding freehand highlights to your hair.  Balayage tends to give a more natural, sun-kissed look with the colour becoming lighter towards the ends of your hair and the roots remaining closer to your base shade. 

Ombre hair colour at Dudleys hairdressers in Bulwell Nottingham

Ombré

Ombré usually creates a bolder demarcation line between the colours used so you can see a defined two-tone effect. Ombré can look fabulous on medium and long hair but isn't really suitable for short hair. 

For a dramatic look, consider an ombré hair colour effect where we create a two-tone look with contrasting colours; or a colour melt where the hair colours literally look as if they have melted into one another. If subtlety's your aim, we can add some super fine babylights throughout your hair.

Hair Colour Terminology

♦ Colour Melt - Varying shades of colour are overlapped from roots to tips to give the appearance that they have been melted into one another.

♦ Root Stretch Balayage - Your natural root colour is ‘stretched’ for a low maintenance balayage look.

♦ Foilayage - Similar to balayage but more subtle. Very fine highlights are added throughout the hair, often in a lighter shade.

♦ Ombré - When one hair colour is blended into another from roots to tips. It can be a fashion colour or natural blonde, red or brunette shade.

♦ Re-Growth Application - When only the new hair colour growth from your scalp is coloured.

♦ Balayage -  Gives your hair a subtle, sun-kissed, natural finish. The effect of balayage is less obvious than traditional foil highlights, with a much less noticeable root regrowth. 

♦ Toners - Often added after a hair lightening service to to blend and even out unwanted warm or brassy tones or as a colour refresher.

♦ Hair Colour Glosses - Adds a glossy shine to natural & artificial hair colours.

♦ Highlights - When selected starnds of hair are weaved and placed into a foil for a multi dimensial look. Lowlights - Darker hair colours than your natural base shade.
