Balayage Hair

I've caught the bug.  After my first hair-coloring experience earlier this year, it was finally time for a touch-up.  Last time, I went with an ombre technique, blending my dark hair into a lighter, caramel color. 

This time though, I wanted to keep some of my darker hair and have a little more contrast throughout, so I asked for a highlighted look instead.  While I was looking for ideas, I came across a trend called "Balayage" - which is a technique of painting strands of hair to create a more natural, sun-kissed look.

I asked my stylist to make me look like Lily Aldridge or Kate Beckinsale. :) She did her best with what she had to work with!

I'm happy! It's always fun to look a little different for a change.
