Balayage
Hand-painted balayage in Chicago’s West Loop: soft, lived-in color that melts into your own and grows out without a hard line.
From $205
What it is
Balayage is color painted onto the hair by hand, without foils. Tatjana places each piece where the light would naturally fall, so the result looks soft and lived-in rather than striped.
Because the color melts into your natural shade at the root, it grows out gently, with no hard line, and many clients can wait longer between visits than with foil highlights.
Good for

What is the difference between partial and full balayage?
Partial balayage brightens the top and the pieces around your face; full balayage is painted through the whole head for more lightness. Tatjana will tell you which suits the look you want.
Balayage or highlights?
Balayage is painted freehand for a soft, natural blend. Highlights use foils for more lift and a brighter, more even result. Many clients choose by how much upkeep they want.
How long does the appointment take?
Plan for a few hours. The exact time depends on your hair’s length and thickness and on the result you want, and you will know it at the consultation.
Is the consultation free?
Yes. Every visit starts with a complimentary consultation, so the plan and the price are clear before any color is mixed.
