BALAYAGE AT HOME 😳 | DIY Highlights

  • Balayage, or hand-painted highlighting, is the holy grail of bleaching your hair. It looks natural and grows out nicely. I've been highlighting my hair at home and clients at the salon using the balayage technique for nearly 8 years. In all that time, there's one thing I've learned: you shouldn't try this at home-def not recommended. Bleach is very dangerous and can cause irreversible damage. I'm a professional, and things didn't turn out exactly the way I wanted 😅 But I still keep doing it. And honestly, by the end, it turned out ok. Let me know what you think in the comments. And if you want this look for yourself, I recommend calling your local stylist 😉 @Brad Mondo do you approve of my technique?

      Me I color my base with 7n mixed with 8n or sometimes just 7n then I do balayage and some highlights with foils depending what I feel like. I like my hair better than ever! I keep it conditioned well p.s the balayage is fun it's like being an artist!

    This is exactly what I needed! I am doing it today with supplies I purchased at Sally’s. They kinda talked me in getting a cap to pull it all through but I don’t like a “ Striped “ look and also I’m lazy and don’t want to take the time to do it and who can pull it through on the back of you head without eyes back there?!
    I don’t have the clay lightener and wish I could find that because the concept seems really smart to me- I’m gonna do it with regular bleach kit using 30 volume and I did get a toner just in case it looks brassy and like you I just picked out one that seemed right. I’m a little nervous but I’m going for it! If it really is crazy I can always color over it right?!… I’m not a professional but after doing my hair at home for years I feel like I should have an honorary degree! Lol. Thanks for breaking it all down so well your tutorial is the best on CZcams without all the dumb stuff about a person’s personal life! Bravo !!

She said “well I figured I would try to match your hair color for the ends and you can come back in next month to get the balyage.

      @@Kayd2111 it will be alright its just hair it will grow back out. Just really unfortunate. I ended up going home and having to even it out. I'm just going to bleach it a few shades and dye it a lighter brown till it can grow out again and I can go in for a proper balyage, hopefully by then I can find someone who actually knows what they are doing. I will prob have to go visit one of the major cities to find someone. Its just ridiculous that these stylists can even rent a chair and cut peoples hair without knowing what they are doing. I could have got the same results from my 12 year old niece.

      Exactly. For a balayage it will cost thousands of crowns. A regular bleaching will cost between 800-2000:- if you look for hairbstylist outside the cities. So I agree with you.

    • @samf.s.7731
      @samf.s.7731 Před rokem

      Yep! Just make sure you don't damage it! It's recommended to use something that isn't... Strong.
      The strong stuff are for licensed professionals and I must say from personal experience, even when I was most careful, using salon strength bleach (20 vol) was very damaging.
      Use something sweet and mild, and go for a more natural look.
      That way if you decide to take it up higher you can go to a pro and the pro would still be able to bleach it properly without worrying that you're gonna go bald.

  • @kiIIingxspree
    @kiIIingxspree Před rokem +8

    I have level 4-5 brown hair and want level 5-6 hair with slightly darker roots. I use 2 parts 10v and to one part powder bleach. I leave it on for 15 minutes.
    I start by dividing the hair into 8 sections plus money piece. I apply the product it in the back with a paddle brush, like literally brush it through, roots to ends.It looks like there is no product and the bleach is dry. This is what you want rather then saturated with bleach. When I get to the front I apply to the money pieces liberally because I want them to stand out, then I got back and pick out some choice pieces as highlights. really tiny strands not high chunky ones.
    Sometimes I tone it but most the time I dont bother. It just adds a bit of lightness and the best bit is you cant see the regrowth, I touch it up roughly every 5 months at the roots with a tail comb on the top and perimeter where the hair grows it.

    40 vol developer not 30 for hair that isn't in foil. Make sure the bleach will lift to 7 levels . Been doing mine for
    30 years but only pull mixture through top layer and smaller strands. As a professional hairdresser for 30 yrs. I also use Sun In spray hair lightener with a blow dryer, not sun in between bleachings which I do 4 times a year.
