Full Balayage vs. Partial Balayage

Do you want to try something new with your hair and get a brighter look for the season? A balayage is the perfect way to lighten and brighten your hair without making any radical changes. You can choose a full or partial balayage to get the look you want.

What’s A Balayage?

A balayage is a process where highlights are added throughout your hair that work with your natural color to lighten and brighten your look. A full balayage is highlighted throughout all of your hair. A partial balayage is highlights done free hand in just one part of your hair, around your face or on the ends. 

The Benefits Of A Full Balayage

Getting a full balayage takes longer than getting a partial balayage, but if you have the extra time to spend getting a balayage done, there are some benefits to getting a full balayage like:

It’s A Low-Maintenance Look

Because the balayage is supposed to look messy, uneven, and natural, you can let the highlights grow out a little before having them touched up. You won’t have to get to the salon religiously to keep up your balyage. 

It Makes You Look Healthy

In the winter and fall, a full balayage will give you a sun-kissed, healthy look that’s hard to achieve when the sun isn’t out much. If you want to look healthy and glowing for holiday photos, getting a balayage is a great way to do that.

It Lets You Play With Color

If you have always wanted to see how you would look with lighter hair but don’t want to commit to a color, a balayage is a great way to see how different tones and shades would look on you. And if you don’t like a color or get tired of it you can change it up at your next appointment. 

The Benefits Of A Partial Balayage

The benefits of a partial balayage are similar to those of a full balayage. But choosing a partial balayage instead of a full balayage gives you added benefits like:

Less Time Commitment

Because a partial balayage is highlighted in just one area of your hair, it takes less time to do. If you are pressed for time and don’t have a few hours to spend getting highlights, a partial balayage is a great way to get the benefits of a balayage without the time commitment. 

Lower Cost

A partial balayage costs less than a full balayage because the stylist does fewer highlights, and the process takes less of their time. If you want a balayage on a budget, a partial balayage is the perfect choice. 

More Natural Look

A partial balayage gives you a more natural look because the highlights are placed in areas where the hair naturally lightens in the sun.
