Bronde Balayage: The Shade of the Season

WHY WE LOVE BALAYAGE

From trendy celebs to the girl next door, balayage is one of the most popular hair coloring techniques today. And we love everything about it. This hand-painted hair has a softer, more natural look.

Another reason we love this look: It’s low maintenance. This technique isn’t applied to the roots, allowing hair to grow out flawlessly for less upkeep (and money). The highlights are hand-painted and are typically only a few shades lighter than your hair color, adding definite dimension without a drastic contrast. Did we mention it looks great with any style or cut?

Bronde, For the Win 

One color may not fit all, but one combination certainly can. Enter: Bronde. Not exactly blonde, not exactly brunette, bronde falls somewhere gorgeously in between. It’s easy to see why it’s been declared the shade of the season. It’s less intense than ombre and more nuanced than conventional highlights, creating a naturally sun-kissed look.

It’s no secret that matching your hair to your skin tone and eye color is the key to success. So which hue is right for you? For natural blondes with cooler skin tones and lighter eyes, add darker streaks to achieve this look. If you’re a brunette, add lighter nuances to create a stunning dimensional bronde. Bonus: This low-maintenance look looks even more natural after a few washes.
