Balayage has been a mainstream player in the hair world and it’s here to stay. What exactly is it? The term ‘Balayage’ means ‘to paint’ so the end result is a natural colour difference, much more subtle and elegant than traditional foils.
Hair extensions are also taking over the hair world and we are proud to be one of the only stockist of high quality balayage hair extensions in Australia. You will fall in love with the quality of our hair extensions!
We’ve all been there, hours at the hairdresser, putting our tresses under bleaching torture for that gorgeous sun kissed look. If only there was a way to achieve this far-less painfully! Well, you’re in luck, because it doesn’t get easier than our balayage clip in hair extensions. There are several great reasons you should try our Clip In Extensions including reducing the cost of maintaining your hair, time spent in the hairdressers chair and the beautiful volume and shine your hair will achieve. So many reasons to go for the balayage clip in hair extensions, let’s dive in shall we?
Cost
I don’t know about you, but I often go back to one colour in the winter months in order to save the substantial money that goes into the maintenance of having balyage in your hair. Maintaining that perfect shade means you need to be heading to your hairdresser at least once every 4 weeks in order to avoid the brassy look. Sure, there is an initial outlay when you purchase Balyage Clip In Hair Extensions, but once it’s home it certainly doesn’t need any colour touch ups!
Time
As much as I love my hairdresser and a lovely glass of bubbles, time is rarely on my side. For those time and events that desperately call for the extra finesse of a salon, why not, but for everyday hair, I find that the 3+ hours is a long time to spend at the salon. The beauty of the Balyage Clip in Hair Extensions is that you can quite easily get them in your hair in no time, and you will end up with gorgeous hair no matter what the occasion.
Here’s a video of how to use your clip ins. You will see the method shown is quite an easy one to use when you are inserting them yourself:
How To Put In Balyage Clip In Hair Extensions
Remember, your first few attempts may take a bit longer than you may expect, so be patient and allow extra time until you get the hang of it. It doesn’t hurt to have an extra set on hands to help the first few times, but I guarantee you’ll still have them in a lot faster than a hairdresser appointment!

No damage to your natural hair
As mentioned above, a lot goes into achieving the balayage look on your natural hair and with that comes stressed out tresses. I personally found my pretty dark hair never quite achieved the colour I wanted and all the colour stripping left my hair quite dull and lifeless. Not a good look at all.
