Lightening up for summer

If you follow me on social media then you’ll maybe have seen that I got my hair done last weekend. I have long been contemplating doing something a little different and after attending a Peter Mark hair event a few weeks ago I was inspired to get the balayage hair treatment done.

Balayage is a French colouring technique where colour is applied free hand to hair to achieve a sun-kissed effect. People have been going crazy for this style for a while now and my hair board on Pinterest is full of balayage hair. It’s a brilliant way to lighten up your hair without worrying about horrible regrowth and running back to your salon every few months.

After growing out my blonde highlighted hair for almost four years I was really hesitant to going back to having heavily coloured hair so I asked Alana at the Peter Mark Belfast salon to do a very subtle balayage treatment. I am delighted with the outcome. The final look is super natural, exactly what I was hoping for.
