BALAYAGE AT HOME 😳 | DIY Highlights

Balayage, or hand-painted highlighting, is the holy grail of bleaching your hair. It looks natural and grows out nicely. I've been highlighting my hair at home and clients at the salon using the balayage technique for nearly 8 years. In all that time, there's one thing I've learned: you shouldn't try this at home—def not recommended. Bleach is very dangerous and can cause irreversible damage. I'm a professional, and things didn't turn out exactly the way I wanted 😅 But I still keep doing it. And honestly, by the end, it turned out ok. Let me know what you think in the comments. And if you want this look for yourself, I recommend calling your local stylist 😉 @Brad Mondo do you approve of my technique?

Who has tried highlighting their hair at home?

[Shariott]

“Don’t try this at home” as I’m waiting for the bleach to finish processing

[LogarAcc]

This is literally the Best video I've watched with someone balayage-ing their own hair.

"dont try this at home"
Me, watching this in my bathroom, ready to bleach

[anavioletagutierrezflores]

Omg thanks for this video! I just paid $425 for a golden brown balayage being specific about not touching my roots. So she actually did touch my roots and did baby lights that looks red. So I’m not spending money in a salon NEVER AGAIN

[andrewjosephdotson]

You honestly did better than everyone else I've seen diy balayage! Great skills!

[evedavis]

Thank you so much! This was a genuine DIY tutorial (there are lots of awesome ones, but more focused on dying other people's hair or they require being able to foil the back of ones own head alone). Thank you so much!

Hair stylists always say "don't try this at home" instead of realizing it's not rocket science. People don't want to pay $500 for a balayage and CAN do their hair at home. I wish there was a step by step out there that actually empowers women that they can do it and it's just simple knowledge... Not horribly complex. It may take a couple years of practice, but it's doable!

I paid paid 300 dollars for a straight haircut and balayage. It was way too dark and i cried that i paid so much for it. I am doing it myself. Haha😊

[armygreen]

This made the most sense & actually seems to be the most simple out of everything else I watched before it, lol. Looks great!

[SaharHadi-kvtu]

Thank you! I tried it on my own hair and it works i was so satisfied with the results. ❤

[samf.s.]

I think the final result looked really beautiful and natural Becky ❤️‍🔥
Good job!

[lizGC]

Thanks for the tips. I do my own at home after two bad experiences with a hairdresser and paying $280 Aus each time! Looks great 🙌

[lacecalotes]

You made this look so easy that it’s hard to not wanna try this at home. But I know better than that. Lol.

[liawijaya]

The last time i did this i literally cried sobbing it was so uneven. But this video might convince me to give it another go omg

I have level 4-5 brown hair and want level 5-6 hair with slightly darker roots. I use 2 parts 10v and to one part powder bleach. I leave it on for 15 minutes.

I start by dividing the hair into 8 sections plus money piece. I apply the product it in the back with a paddle brush, like literally brush it through, roots to ends.It looks like there is no product and the bleach is dry. This is what you want rather then saturated with bleach. When I get to the front I apply to the money pieces liberally because I want them to stand out, then I got back and pick out some choice pieces as highlights. really tiny strands not high chunky ones.

Sometimes I tone it but most the time I dont bother. It just adds a bit of lightness and the best bit is you cant see the regrowth, I touch it up roughly every 5 months at the roots with a tail comb on the top and perimeter where the hair grows it.

This is exactly what I needed! I am doing it today with supplies I purchased at Sally’s. They kinda talked me in getting a cap to pull it all through but I don’t like a “ Striped “ look and also I’m lazy and don’t want to take the time to do it and who can pull it through on the back of you head without eyes back there?!
I don’t have the clay lightener and wish I could find that because the concept seems really smart to me- I’m gonna do it with regular bleach kit using 30 volume and I did get a toner just in case it looks brassy and like you I just picked out one that seemed right. I’m a little nervous but I’m going for it! If it really is crazy I can always color over it right?!… I’m not a professional but after doing my hair at home for years I feel like I should have an honorary degree! Lol. Thanks for breaking it all down so well your tutorial is the best on YouTube without all the dumb stuff about a person’s personal life! Bravo !!

[opaldawn]

I'm glad I found you because I want to diy balayage my hair at home.

[lili_]

Here in Sweden it’s sooo expensive to highlight the hair of any kind, so I definitely do it home too!

[xxcarolxannexx]

You’re making me want to give into my temptation’s and balayage my own hair. I’m a hair stylist, and have my own products BUT I don’t trust myself to do a good job on myself 😂
