Enhance Your Look with Balayage

The Balayage technique at Kara Unisex Salon offers a soft, natural, and sun-kissed look that is personalized to you. Balayage uses a freehand coloring method to apply highlights where you want them, giving your hair a more natural, less uniform appearance. Whether you're looking for subtle highlights or a bolder look, our expert stylists will create a customized balayage style that complements your features and natural texture.

What Is Balayage?

Balayage is a French hair coloring technique where color is hand-painted onto the hair, creating a more natural, graduated look. Unlike traditional foil highlights, balayage offers a sun-kissed appearance that is often softer and more seamless, ideal for those looking for a less-maintenance color option.
