How Is It Done?

Balayage Sydney FAQs
What is balayage?
Balayage is a French word meaning to paint or to sweep. It is a highlighting technique from back in the 1970s that gives a very natural looking effect with less noticeable re-growth lines, compared to regular foil highlights.
It’s a free hand highlight technique which amplifies your natural colour contrast while adding in seductive darker or lighter hues.
How long does balayage take?
A balayage appointment usually takes between 2 and 3 hours, depending on your hair length, thickness and desired result.
How long does balayage last?
Balayage can last 3 to 4 months before needing a refresh, as it grows out naturally without harsh regrowth lines.
Is balayage better than highlights?
Balayage offers a softer, more natural finish, while highlights create a brighter and more defined look. The best option depends on your desired result.
Do I need a toner with balayage?
Most balayage services include or recommend a toner to refine the final colour and achieve the desired tone.
How much does balayage cost in Sydney?
Balayage in Sydney typically costs between $200 and $500+, and can increase depending on hair length, thickness and complexity. At Petersham Hair Co, balayage starts from $215.
