At Zen Hair Fashion, we have stylists who are highly skilled in many different coloring techniques. We are known for our expertise in two techniques in particular, Balayage  and Ombre.  Both produce stunnig and beautiful results.

Balayage is a French word meaning to sweep or to paint. It allows for a sun-kissed natural looking hair colour – similar to what nature gives us as children – with softer, less noticeable regrowth lines. The principal idea being less is more when creating soft, natural looks.Balayage is applied on the surface and not saturated through the section until the very tips, otherwise you would have a streak of colour that isn’t vey soft at all. It can also be called a freehand technique because no foil or meche are used to create the highlights.

The Ombre hair color effect is a gradiation of color from dark at the roots to light ends.

“Rooty” hilites have always been fashionable but this takes it to a whole new level.

Roots are dark-natural and fade into a lighter shade from mid-shaft to the ends. It’s a very beachy, natural look.

Look around and you’ll see it on many celebrities in different variations from the more subdued, subtle looks like Camila Alves to trendy extreme flashes of color like Drew Barrymore. How intense you take it is completely up to you, but the best part is it only looks better as it grows!
