Balayage Questions and Answers - Andre Richard Salon

Balayage Questions and Answers

What is balayage?

Balayage is a French word that means "to sweep." In this hair color technique, highlights are hand-painted or "swept" on the surface of random sections of hair. Dye or lightener is usually painted on, starting midshaft and becoming denser as it moves down the section of hair to the ends.

Is balayage damaging?

Balayage is a less-damaging hair color technique that highlights "random" sections of hair to provide a more natural and sun-kissed look. Since balayage highlights don't completely saturate your hair but simply use pieces of hair, the process makes your hair healthier, softer, and shinier. Balayage highlights don't start at your roots or touch your scalp during use, but from the middle down to the ends through strands.

How long does balayage take?

Most appointments are scheduled 3 to 5 hours. However, we never rush hair color and the time required may depend on your desired results.

How is balayage priced?

Balayage is a very personalised technique, and the application will depend on various factors including hair density, haircut, and desired result. Our prices start from $185, but there are many add-on services available, such as regrowth color, toner, and Olaplex, that can aid in the health and condition of your hair. Your color artist will be

We love Olaplex!

Olaplex in Philadelphia

We love Olaplex at Andre Richard Salon. Why do we love it? Simply put, it works! Olaplex saves the hair from the damage that can happen from applying chemicals to the hair. Especially when blonding with bleach. No8_100ml_wLid_2000x2000_300dpi_Front_cmyk_d9605897-14f4-4009-b7e8-6dd329eb5ed1_1440x.jpg

 

 

What does Olaplex do?

Our hair contains millions of disulfide bonds.

These bonds give the hair its structure, strength and stability. When disulfide bonds are broken, it results in damage. 

OLAPLEX restores damaged and compromised hair by repairing from the inside out with our patented single ingredient, Bis-Aminopropyl Diglycol Dimaleate.

Once all the bonds are intact and in alignment, you have healthy, beautiful, shiny, touchable hair.

At André Richard Salon we value the integrity of your hair. Olapex offers much more than meets the eye and we want to show you! Add to blonding services and also as a stand alone treatment for basic management or go deep and actually repair that hair strand!

The Best Balayage and Babylights Workshop | Philadelphia

Redken came to Andre Richard Salon in Philadelphia to give an updated approach to balayage and babylight highlights. 

b2ap3_thumbnail_DSC_2308.JPG

 

Balayage became known sometime in the 1970's and over the past 10 years has been a rising trend. We began teaching balayage and ombré techniques at ARS in 2010. Babylights is a foil technique that takes a lot of time but the results are natural like a babys blonde!

We believe that education is the foundaton of our success and keeps us the best salon in Philadelphia.

Redken sent in a top educator from NYC. Arielle helped us with placement and also focused on which Redken lightener to use for the desired result. b2ap3_thumbnail_DSC_2281.jpg
https://www.facebook.com/AndreRichardHairSalonPhiladelphia/

The team focused on technique and instead of using live models we used professional mannequins to maintain the classroom atmosphere. We were able to ask questions and focus on the technique. 

 

b2ap3_thumbnail_DSC_2313.JPG

The best part of hands on is we get our hands in there and feel what we are learning.

Our rising talent is always encouraged to learn and jump in.

Rachid - Master Stylist and Artistic Director | Paris Training

Remaining the best hair salon in Philadelphia

Rachid - Master Stylist and Artistic Director | Paris Training

It requires action, so Rachid - Master Stylist and Artistic Director went to Paris to brush up on some technique and grab a few more while he was there.

 

When I asked Rachid what was covered most in the class he answered this:

"First I was the only one trained with two trainers and 1 assistant. The title of the training was global beauty meaning that it's not just about hair it's about a great consultation to determine which cut color and balayage will emphasize the woman's beauty. Cuts are pushed to the edge, colors are reinvented and balayage comes to emphasize movement and symmetry! The training was about a personalized look!"

Best Balayage Highlights In Philadelphia

Sometimes a consult is great to come in for before your appointment so you and your stylist can perfect a game plan. Please bring inspiration and questions so we can be ready to give you the best balayage of your life!

Balayage is a hair painting method. To get the perfect sun-kissed highlights, you basically have two options: traditional foil highlights and the newer, edgier "balayage." Balayage refers to the process of sweeping color onto hair using a paddle.
