4. Time to Balayage

Delicately use brush through the mid-lengths towards the closures of your hair on the two sides. Brush the color more thoroughly at the end of the hair and ensure the strokes are scattered while moving upwards.

5. Repeat the process

Repeat the same process on the remaining excess areas. Ensure your Balayage begins at different points to avoid a plunge color look. If you feel there’s an excessive amount of product on a strand, wipe it out with your hand. And if you want some brighter hair strands just apply more Balayage.
