  Apply conditioner of choice in the same manner you would Balayage. This means using gentle strokes with a soft brush held at an angle to create a smooth transition in the hair.

  Helpful Tips to Keep in Mind:
  Do not cut the hair before Balayage. This keeps it more natural-looking.

  Choose the right peroxide to avoid too much warmth.

  When performing Balayage or highlights, always work with the client’s part (side, center, off-center) to ensure seamless, harmonious color. 

  Treat and highlight the hair simultaneously. Apply your lightener at regrowth, and treat the ends or mid-lengths with your favorite hair mask.
