The
balayage highlighting technique is referred to in many different ways and many designers claim to know the technique. But at
Michael's Salon and Spa, our designers are trained by a Balayage expert, Master Designer and Hair Colorist
Jodi Schuh. Jodi mastered the balayage technique at the
Jacques Dessange Training Salon in Paris. Jodi says she loves the balayage hair color technique because it is natural-looking and very different from traditional foil highlights. With Balayage your colorist will actually "paint" the highlights into your hair. This gives your designer more creative control over the intensity and amount of highlights in your style. An added benefit, as your hair grows out the roots are more subtle than with foils.
Jodi recently conducted a balayage training class to certify more of
Michael's talented hair colorists on this exciting technique. Designers go though several classes performing the technique on mannequins and actual models before they can provide the service to Michael's clients. This ensures that our stylists have practiced and mastered the technique, to provide the best possible hair color results every time.
This training is just one part of
Michael's continuing education program for our staff. We offer many classes throughout the year to ensure that all of our stylists stay up-to-date on current fashions and trends.
