The art of Balayage @ Sugardaddy's Salon!




OK, you got the look in mind, the magazine cover to show what you want, but why oh why don't your highlights (although beautifully done) not really look like what you had in mind. Where's the subtlety? Why are the highlights so pronounced? WTF? You wanted Giselle on the Victoria's Secret runway. You wanted LOW maintenance, not grow out!
Well Duckie's, I can now tell you why and your gonna LOVE me, cause this IS the golden ticket. Balayage.

Bally who? Balayage. French for 'to sweep'. This is the technique that separates the artist's from the hacks. Balayage (ball-e-ah-je) literally is the hand picking of and sweeping of color onto the hair. You can go from subtle sun kissed day at the beach to full tilt boogie boldness. From one color to many, the choice is yours depending on the look you want. The color placement is exact. Naturally.

Jennifer Aniston? Balayage.
Cindy Crawford? Balayage.
Kate Hudson? Balayage.
Jessica Alba? Balayage.
Sara Jessica Parker? Garnier my ass, it's balayage!
Any given model on any reputable magazine? it's not the lighting sweetie, it's the color service, and it's called Balayage.
From icy (cooler tones from smokey tones to platinum)
beachy blonds (think golden with buttery tones),
dimensional brunettes (rich chocolates with almond's or mahoganies) ,
redheads (jewel tones to fiery coppers) on and on, this is the real deal. Mimic summer effects and nature, bring light to the face, or adapt it to whatever style that best suits you, this is the service you have been looking for your entire life but didn't know how to ask or specifically which service to ask for.

EVERY staff member of Sugardaddy's has been trained in the art of balayage thanks to the wonderful educators of L'Oreal Professional (esp. Richelle Mclaughlin). After all they are the ones behind all the magazine cover's you bring in to emulate! The cost is yes, a tad bit higher than a conventional highlight or low light, $20.00 give or take, but when you see the artists of Sugardaddy's Salon at work and have the results you have craved finally achieved, you will realize it's justified. The maintenance of the service is much more relaxed so you save money not having a hard grow out line to contend with, plus it grows out so naturally! Every woman will be so jealous, and let's be honest, that in itself is worth it!
Just like L'Oreal's motto, let's hear it girls, you are worth it!
