Balayage, the best in East London

The price of a balayage depends on the length and thickness of your hair, as well as the complexity of the look you're aiming for. During your complimentary consultation, your stylist will assess your hair and provide a full quote before booking the colour appointment. This ensures there are no surprises and that enough time is scheduled for a flawless result. Our Balayage starts from £144, for more information see our full price list or get in touch.

The length of a balayage appointment can vary based on your hair’s length, thickness, and the result you’re hoping to achieve. On average, the shortest balayage time is 3 hours. This includes the consultation, lightening process, toner application, and styling. We always dedicate enough time to make sure the result is exactly what you want.

While both techniques lighten the hair, the key difference lies in the application method and the final look. highlights are typically uniform precise woven sections of hair and are lightened very close to the roots. Balayage, on the other hand, is a softer more blended natural appearance with softer regrowth. It’s also lower maintenance and can be more versatile when it comes to customising tones and placement. We often gently backcomb sections before applying the colour to ensure a seamless transition from your natural hair to the lightened areas, creating that signature grown-in, sun-kissed finish.

Balayage is known for its longevity. Depending on your hair type, colour, and how well you care for it, balayage can last 3 to 4 months or more before needing a refresh. Because it grows out softly, it doesn’t leave harsh lines, making it an ideal choice for those looking for a colour option that doesn’t require constant upkeep. Using professional products and scheduling occasional gloss or toner appointments can help keep your balayage looking fresh.

Reverse balayage is a technique used to deepen the roots and create a more natural, grown-in look - especially popular with clients who have highlights or all-over blonde hair. It involves blending darker tones at the roots into lighter ends, helping to soften the contrast, add depth, and reduce the maintenance required for blonde shades. It’s a great option for transitioning to a more dimensional, effortless colour while still keeping brightness through the lengths.
