Highlights (Balayage/Ombre)

Rush Salon is proud to offer professional highlighting by our expert colourists. We use a variety of studied techniques and effects to give you unforgettable results. Whether you're looking for dramatic and bold, soft and subtle, or natural, sun-kissed locks, highlights make your hair lighter, brighter, and shinier, while also adding depth and dimension, even to fine hair.

Highlights

Small sections of hair are wrapped in foil. Highlights generally start at the root end to create a structured look with uniform colour throughout your hair. Results are brighter and more defined than other methods, with lush contrast between colours. The root line becomes visible with hair growth so we recommend touch-ups every 6–8 weeks.

Balayage

Balayage is a hand-painted technique that gives softer, more natural-looking highlights, as if your hair were lightened by the summer sun. Since colouring softens gradually near the roots, new hair growth blends in flawlessly. The result is gorgeous, long-lasting colour that won't require retouching for months. If you're looking for low-maintenance highlights, this is a great choice.

Ombre

Ombre is a colour fade for your hair. It starts darker at the roots, then continuously lightens until it reaches the tips. It creates a stunning, gradient effect that gives your hair different colours top and bottom. It's great for matching skin tones with darker shades while still getting to showcase blonde ends. Like balayage, it radiates a natural, sun-kissed vibe, and because the roots are your own hair colour, new growth works in seamlessly. This is a low-maintenance style that looks great for months before needing a touch-up.
