mntl-sc-block-html\"> For people who want to add more vibrance and depth to their brown hair with hair dye\u2014but without all the mandatory touch-ups\u2014your best option is probably balayage. Not to be confused with ombr\u00e9 hair, which starts dark and transitions to a lighter shade at the ends, balayage is acolor application technique.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;The color is painted directly onto the hair as opposed to encased in foil,&#8221; says celebrity hair colorist, Rachel Bodt.\u00a0&#8220;It\u00a0tends to be more seamless and have a softer grow-out.&#8221; Ombr\u00e9 <em>can<\/em> be achieved using the balayage painting technique, though.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_3-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Whether you&#8217;re looking for a soft brown look \u00e0 la Kaia Gerber, want to add color to your strands like Kerry Washington, or want to throw in some ashy highlights to give your layers more dimension like J.Lo, there are plenty of balayage options for brown hair to consider.

Not to be confused with ombr\u00e9 hair, which starts dark and transitions to a lighter shade at the ends, balayage is acolor application technique.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;The color is painted directly onto the hair as opposed to encased in foil,&#8221; says celebrity hair colorist, Rachel Bodt.\u00a0&#8220;It\u00a0tends to be more seamless and have a softer grow-out.&#8221; Ombr\u00e9 <em>can<\/em> be achieved using the balayage painting technique, though.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_3-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Whether you&#8217;re looking for a soft brown look \u00e0 la Kaia Gerber, want to add color to your strands like Kerry Washington, or want to throw in some ashy highlights to give your layers more dimension like J.Lo, there are plenty of balayage options for brown hair to consider.
