Balayage
To get the perfect sun-kissed highlights, you basically have two options: traditional foil highlights and the newer, edgier "balayage." Balayage is the process of sweeping color onto hair using a paddle. Balayage is an originally French-method of highlighting that gives the colorist more freedom to place color where she/he chooses, unlike foils which can be much more precise. Balayage is often called "sweeping" because colorists use a sweeping motion when applying the color with the color applicator. Rather than taking a section of hair in a square foil, keeping in mind that the head is round, colorists carefully take pieces of hair from the head. With great control, colorists gently apply the lightener on from roots to ends or just roots alone.
