You have probably heard of ombre hair, but you may be unfamiliar with balayage. These are cutting edge hair color techniques that can take your look from regular to extraordinarily special.

Ombre Hair With Hair Extensions

Ombre is a hair color technique that uses darker root colors and gradually gets lighter on the ends about midway down your hair strand. You can go with a huge color contrast for a more stand out ombre effect or you can go natural for a more subtle look. It’s all up to you on how you want your own ombre to look. Most people like to start off slowly with a contrast between the roots and the mid strands and go lighter on the ends per their comfort level and how it looks with their skin tone. The contrast is what makes this look super unique and cool.

What “Ombre” Actually Means

Ombre means “shade” in the French language. The reason the French probably came up with this look is due to the fact that it’s pretty low maintenance. The French people are known for their low key style in hair and makeup. They look effortless, but put together always.

So be like the French and know that you don’t have to overly stress when your roots come in a little dark and grow out naturally. That’s part of the look of true ombre hair.

So if you don’t love being at the salon every 4-6 weeks in a colorist’s chair, then you might be the perfect client to explore an ombre look. Plus, the way the lighter ends look has the illusion of a sunkissed glow, making your face and features brighter in the process. Very pretty and sexy. That’s totally what you want going into the new year, right? We think so too!

Talk to your Glo Denver stylist today about how you can incorporate an ombre hair extensions look into your existing extensions or with a brand new set of glorious extensions for the new year. Now is the perfect time to splurge on a set that will make you look and feel fabulous inside and out.

Balayage Hair with Hair Extensions

Balayage is the art of free-handed highlights. That means foils aren’t used for these so they look more natural and unique. The Glo Denver colorist can have a lot of fun planning just the right look to your specifications. You’ll really enjoy the consultation as you discuss how the art of balayage can truly enhance your features, especially when you have hair extensions put in to make your hairstyle extra special.

Did you know that balayage means “sweeping” in French? Such a breezy fun way to do hair color and the options are truly endless with how you want your color to look. If you are new to coloring your hair this is also a great way to start the process because it’s not so specific that you have to color very often. The grow out phase looks pretty natural for the most part. This is low-maintenance dream hair for most on-the-go gals.

Hair Color Fun with Balayage & Ombre Hair Extensions

With either hair color technique, whether you want to do ombre or balayage, you can do so many unique colors that you are going to want to discuss all your options with your Glo colorist. If you have pictures of a look in a fashion magazine or have one that you like, feel free to bring them in so the colorist can get the full picture of the color you want to end up with.

They will, of course, make recommendations based on your skin tone, lifestyle, look you want achieved, and desired level of maintenance.

You can do basic colors in ombre like a honey brunette that blends into a lighter shade of champagne blonde for a stand out look. Or you can do something completely wild and free, like a deep sexy violet that blends into a pastel based plum. It’s all up to you on how wild you want to go with your hair color. The sky’s the limit here truly. Go wherever your vision and imagination takes you. That’s the best part about hair extensions. The fantasy fun of it all, which is definitely enhanced by a fantastic ombre hair or balayage hair color.
