Transform Your Look with Custom Balayage Highlights
Balayage is a freehand highlighting method where color is carefully painted onto the hair to create soft transitions and a natural, sun-lit finish. Unlike traditional foil highlights, balayage grows out seamlessly and is tailored to your hair texture, length, and lifestyle.
At Biro Hair Studio, every balayage service is individually planned, not pre-set—ensuring results that look effortless, healthy, and modern.
What Is Balayage and Why It’s So Popular in Toronto
The word balayage comes from French, meaning “to sweep.” This technique allows colorists to place highlights where light naturally hits the hair, creating depth without harsh lines.
Why clients across Toronto love balayage:
-
Low-maintenance color that grows out naturally
-
Suitable for straight, wavy, or curly hair
-
Customizable for subtle brightness or bold contrast
-
Enhances natural hair movement and dimension
