Balayage Caramel Hair: The Trend For 2022 

The balayage (French for “sweeping”) highlighting technique was created to allow colorists to illuminate hair freestyle. With this technique, colorists can freely create thousands of shapes to highlight the areas that your client wants to focus on. Balayage Caramel hair is a must in salon styling in 2022 because of its warmth, which gives maximum dimension to brown hair by adding warm, blonde strands (two or three tones above the base) and darker shades to tone it down (caramel, honey, hazelnut).

Caramel Balayage can also work for blondes. Not all blondes have to have cool tones. Balayage Caramel hair can (and should!) be done on blonde hair, taking into account the skin tone and style of each person. Lighter shades tend towards softer, silky-looking beiges, while darker shades will be done with golden, iridescent colors that add creaminess. XL manes are welcome!

How to Create Balayage Caramel Hair 

The first thing to take into account is the base of the client. If the person has dark hair with grays, you should first cover those with a dark, warm dye at the roots like Revlonissimo Colorsmetique™ 5.3 and then perform the Balayage technique with the Magnet™ Blondes Ultimate Powder 9 to get the blonde up in the selected areas. Don’t forget to backcomb the locks where you are going to apply the lighter shade so that the gradient looks perfect. Don’t be shy about alternating very fine strands with some thicker ones. This way, the multi-dimensionality will come alive. We also recommend using the money piece technique, which creates a light frame around the front part of the hairline after using foils or other types of highlights.

The next step is the shading. For Caramel Balayage hair you should apply the perfect shade of caramel color to sweeten each person’s hair. After rinsing the hair, you should be able to spread the Revlonissimo Colorsmetique™ color very easily thanks to its creaminess. We recommend a mixture of the new 8DN with 8.3 to get a warm tone with lots of light. The result is healthy, shiny hair with a long-lasting shimmering color.
