The difference is the application method. depending on your hair type, hair history, desired MAINTENANCE routine and inspiration photo one method may be better suited for your hair to achieve your goal. You may see a photo on instagram, pinterest, google, etc.. with a caption that reads like “ caramel balayage” and the imagine has a gradient dark to light color from the root to the tips. there is nothing wrong with coming in to your stylist and showing that photo and saying, “ i’d like a balayage please”. Just keep in mind that your appointment is tailored to you, your stylist isn’t following a RECIPE out of a book, they are tailoring something just for you and your hair.
