A highlighting technique for natural-looking, low-maintenance dimension
Balayage creates soft, natural-looking highlights that mimic the way the sun naturally lightens hair. The result is a beautiful, lived-in look that's effortlessly chic.
Unlike traditional highlights, balayage grows out naturally without harsh lines. You can often go 12-16 weeks between appointments, making it practical for busy lifestyles.
Whether you want subtle dimension or bold contrast, balayage can be customized to match your personal style and hair goals.
Burman & Co's Toni & Guy background supports the technical decisions behind lift, placement, toning, and long-term color maintenance.
We review your color history, previous highlights, box dye, hair condition, and goal shade before deciding how much lift your hair can safely handle.
Colorado's dry air and high-altitude sun can make lightened hair feel dry or turn warm faster, so we build toner and treatment guidance into your maintenance plan.
How to prepare for your appointment and protect your highlights at home
Come to your appointment with clean hair and no heavy styling products. Product build-up can interfere with even lightener application.
Save photos of highlight styles you love—and ones you don't. This helps us understand the exact look you're after, from placement to tone.
Let us know about any previous highlights, box color, or chemical treatments. This helps us choose the safest, most effective approach for your hair.
Highlight services range from about 1.5 hours (mini-partial) to 3+ hours (balayage or full highlights). Schedule your day accordingly so you're not rushed.
Give your toner and lightener time to fully settle. Your first wash can lift freshly deposited tone, so waiting helps the color last longer.
Sulfate-free shampoos are gentler on highlighted hair and help preserve your tone between appointments. We'll recommend options that work for your specific highlights.
For blonde or lightened highlights, a purple or blue shampoo used once a week helps neutralize brassiness and keep your tone fresh.
Use a heat protectant before hot tools and consider a UV-protecting hair product for time in the Colorado sun, which can fade highlights over time.
Foil highlights typically need refreshing every 8–10 weeks. Balayage can go 12–16 weeks. We'll help you set a schedule that keeps your look fresh.
