Watch #ManeAmbassador @cherilynrachelle create this balayage on her client’s bob, with the end goal of a more dimensional color with blondes that pop against natural looking depth. TIP: Look at the hairline to note the high front points and base brightest pops off them to mimic sunkissed highlights. Step-By-Step: 1️⃣Section out crown. For the sides, work in diagonal back sections. In a zigzag subsection ~1/4", surface paint on the lowlight using the flat of the brush. I only painted low lights on the sides to add dimension to her already blonde hair. When the sides meet in the back and make a triangle, transition to horizontal sections. 🔑TIP: Her hairline was already bright enough so I sectioned out 1/2" so the shadow sits naturally behind it. if you need more brightness on the sides, alternate highlights and lowlights with same placement. 🔑TIP: I formulated the lowlight to match her natural level for the most believable dimension. 2️⃣In back triangle, move horizontally (still under the crown section) making sure to feather the lowlights down. I use a comb in denser sections to ensure saturation. 3️⃣Section crown at natural part, and alternate painting highlights & lowlights in diagonal back sections. Work back in 1/2" sections, zigzag splitting that section in half, painting depth on the bottom and balayaging the top. **highlights in front of lowlights create major dimension. 4️⃣For added depth, smudge with 1 level darker than natural base about 1", process 5 minutes then feather down another 1/2"-1" from front to back, process 5 more minutes and feather down 1/2" further.  TIP: you could skip this step if you just want to use their natural base. 5️⃣Globally gloss with target highlight tone. 6️⃣Smile because this will grow out effortlessly! 🎨Products + Formulas: Lowlight: @owayorganics HColor 7.01 + 6.0 Paint: @originalmineral Paint Powder + 20vol Smudge: @owayorganics HNectar 6.1 + 9vol Global: @owayorganics HColor 11.71 + 9vol @framar funky film to separate
