1. Why I Love Balayage in My Beauty & Style Studio
Just last month, a bride came in with a balayage that had those caramel ribbons melting into her natural chestnut.
I wove it into a loose, low braid with a few face-framing strands pulled out.
And the way the light caught those highlights made the whole style look like it was glowing from within.
That’s the magic of balayage with braids—it adds depth and dimension without looking done-up.
The soft, blended color lets the braid feel effortless, almost like she woke up with it.
But every strand is locked in place.
