Brown Balayage in Abingdon

Brown balayage oozes elegance. In most cases it’s a subtle change, whereas in others it can be striking and naturally beautiful. Balayage effective involves applying initially bleach to the mid to ends of hair before toning with a brown toner of your choosing. The end result is sot, sun-kissed hair. 

Your Stylist will work through a consultation to explore your likes, dislikes, concerns, aftercare, what you want to achieve and everything else in between. At Wisteria Avenue, we focus on understanding your vision and ensuring the what you are looking for suits your face shape, hair routine, skin and eye colour.

Brown Balayage FAQ's

What is a brown balayage?

A brown balayage is a form of balayage. A balayage technique involves the same application and technique of any other balayage (usually free-hand ‘foilayage’ form) by painting bleach onto the mid to ends of hair before toning with a brown toner. If choosing the right colour, a brown balayage can add a lot of dimension, sun-kissed ends and in some cases even the illusion of thicker hair! Unlike traditional full head highlights, the balayage technique offers a more natural and soft blend of colours.

Why is brown balayage so popular?

In short, it’s easy to maintain, you’re less likely to notice your toner fade, there’s excellent longevity and most importantly, it looks great! What’s not to love about a brown balayage? The popularity of brown balayage can also be attributed to its versatility; a fact about balayage that many clients aren’t aware of is that toners aren’t static, meaning in theory you can pivot from one colour to another in a reality short period of time to another in about 20 minutes!

What is the different between brown balayage and blonde balayage?

The key distinction between a brown balayage and a blonde balayage is your choice of toner. The application of balayage is the same whether the colour is red, blonde, violet or brown! The only consideration is whether your hair is able to compliment brown!

What does a brown balayage do to your hair?

A balayage technique applies bleach to your hair to create a sun-kissed feel. Bleach removes the pigment to create lightness and then this is balanced and ‘coloured’ using your chosen colour (in this case using a brown).

What is the downside to a brown balayage?

For some clients, the level of contrast might not offer enough difference. While the subtlety of brown balayage offers a natural and soft transition, in some cases a less dramatic change might not work for every client. For some clients seeking their first balayage a brown balayage if the hair is dark enough would work really well.

What does a brown balayage cost?

It usually depends on logistical factors; salon, salon location, stylist, hair type and end goal. This typically ranges between £135 to £250. Costs often tend to be higher in central Oxford than in surrounding towns. At Wisteria Avenue in 2023, the average price stood at £180, though prices varied. For a tailored quote aligned with your desired results in mind, your Stylist should be able to help.

Before any hair colour service, whether it’s balayage or another treatment, both a skin test and consultation are mandatory. These crucial steps ensure the safety of the colouring process and determine its suitability for your hair’s requirements.

Furthermore, the consultation serves as a personalised session to identify the perfect service tailored precisely to your preferences. Occasionally, clients may choose services that don’t completely align with their objectives, and the consultation acts as a guide, directing them towards the most suitable choices.

Balayages aren’t the same for every client.

However the appointment type is the same. If you know you want a balayage, we’d encourage you to proceed with the booking!

Balayage techniques vary depending on each client.

We don’t assume clients to be familiar with all balayage terms! However, visual references are invaluable. If you have a specific look in mind, we highly recommend bringing pictures to your consultation.

Typically, the variations in balayage styles don’t significantly impact the pricing. For instance, the ‘money piece’ trend is currently popular and is a fantastic addition that doesn’t alter the pricing.

Each of our Stylists boasts a minimum of 10 years of experience in the field.

During consultations, we aim to assess the feasibility and possibility of achieving your desired look in a single session.

Dark or light hair, a consultation aims to answer this question and others to better understand what the likely outcome might be.

In some cases it’s possible. In others we take a more pragmatic view.
