12 balayage ideas for spring

While last spring was all about growing out your hair color, cutting your hair at home and stocking up on tie dye sweatsuits, dare we say it, spring 2021 may look like a whole lot different. With US vaccinations steadily underway and salons gradually opening back up in certain states, it's time to start thinking about your post-lockdown glow up, and more specifically, your post-lockdown hair. 

As many have fully embraced a lower maintenance hair routine, we predict a big boom in balayage hair colors. And if your salon hasn't yet opened up, not to worry. Get the looks at home with balayage hair extensions—as long as your hair color matches the base shade of the hair extensions, you can get balayage hair instantly with no trip to the salon.

Keep reading for 12 of our favorite balayage ideas for spring.

1. Off Black Balayage

Because black hair colors can be difficult to lift by too many levels, we love the look of Chocolate Brown highlights deftly painted on to give the hair a warmer effect. This color combination will sing in the sunlight as Off Black catches warm brown tones and Chocolate Brown catches red tones.

2. Mocha Brown Balayage

If your hair is brown, you can likely afford to lift the color to a lighter level without damaging the hair too much. Dirty Blonde highlights give the warm, red-toned Mocha Brown a multi-dimensional effect, perfect for the springtime.

3. Mocha Bronde Balayage

A little bit brown, a little bit blonde, whole lot bombshell. If your hair color is naturally darker and red-toned like Mocha Brown, consider adding Bronde highlights to the mix. An in-between shade of brown and blonde, Bronde highlights add warm hues to dark hair for a sun-kissed effect.

Dark Brown is a mid-tone brown shade, so if this is your hair color, opt for Dirty Blonde painted highlights for a natural gradation from dark to light. The warmer blonde shade will add a subtle kiss of warmth to darker hair colors.
