Just like changing wardrobes, many people like to change up their hair styles.
More like, why not?
You know what they say change isconstant.
Beauty mogul Kylie Jenner is known for her ever-changing hairstyles.
One day, she’s flaunting her dark locks, the next day, she’s blonde.
“I’ve just had this addiction to changing my hair.
It makes me feel like a new person,” explains the reality star on her website.
Some people who don’t have in-depth knowledge about the coloring processes might think they are the same.
But no, they are not (viaRedken).
What is ombre hair?
The roots of the hair are dark, while it gradually turns lighter toward the ends.
Usually, the tips are in various shades of blonde or light brown, depending on the preference.
According toStyleCraze, ombre hair at salons can cost around $100 to $250.
Of course, the rates will depend on hair length, thickness, and the amount of highlights.
The brands of products used can also impact the price.
Not to mention, additional treatments like bleaching and hair care can affect the total amount.
Although, the maintenance can still be cheaper than full hair color.
What is balayage?
Balayage is a French word that means “paint” or “sweep.”
The hairstyle is a highlighting technique, but unlike the normal process, balayage does not require foils.
Instead a colorist uses a free-hand-painting process that creates a natural-looking dark to light effect.
However, the lightening process can depend on the hair pop in and preference.
With women with dark blonde to light brown hair, the painting process will suffice.
Meanwhile, for clients with dark tresses, colorists may opt to use foils for lifting.
Then again, it depends on how light you want the highlights to look.
For pricing, balayage can cost as low as $50 to $200, according toStyleCraze.
Also, note that each salon offers different prices since each colorist has different estimates and degrees of experience.
