The service
What balayage is
Balayage is a freehand colouring technique that creates a soft, natural gradient. As it does not mark the roots, the colour grows out more harmoniously and needs less maintenance.
We also do highlights, babylights, toning and grey blending. So we recommend the technique that suits your hair and the result you want, even if that is not balayage.
It suits you if…
- You want brightness through your hair without a sharp contrast at the roots.
- You prefer colour that grows out naturally between appointments.
- You are blonde, light brown or brunette: we adapt it to your natural base and skin tone.
- You want a change, but would like someone to assess your hair first.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between balayage, highlights and babylights?
The difference between these techniques lies in how they are applied and the look they create:
- Highlights: the generic term for lightening sections of hair. They are usually more defined and structured, aiming for a visible contrast between the base tone and the lightened strands.
- Balayage: a freehand colouring technique that creates a soft, natural gradient. As it does not mark the roots, it grows out more harmoniously and needs less maintenance.
- Babylights: very fine, subtle highlights placed strategically throughout the hair. They add diffused luminosity and a natural shine, avoiding sharp contrasts.
At Qué Bárbaro we analyse your colour base and skin tone to recommend the right technique for you.
Does balayage need a lot of maintenance?
Not much: as it does not mark the roots, the colour grows out more harmoniously. When we finish, we give you personalised advice to keep it looking good at home.
Do you do a diagnosis before balayage?
Yes. Before a colour transformation we assess the condition of your hair to choose the right technique and protect its quality throughout the process, and we analyse your colour base and skin tone.
