best and easiest balayage tutorial Ive seen yet. I need to do this on myself and know its going to be harder but I am determined. Thanks for the brush and clay suggestion.
Doing my first balayage on a client tomorrow. I've been practicing all week and I'm super nervous, this video has really calmed my nerves and helped me prepare. Thank you so much.
I canNot wait to try this on my niece..Super excited! I've watched a ton of videos on balayage....and I finally found yours!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
So helpful! Thanks so much, I'm a 49 year old stylist and have had trouble switching from foil, which I can do in my sleep~ to balayage. I am excited to try your tips!
I’ve watched so many balayage techniques this past couple weeks and I will say this is the best tutorial. Very clean and simple. I love that you used a paint brush! It looks like you painted it with ease and good control. Do you have any videos similar to this but with teasing and or weaving?
This and your "Favorite Way to Balayage" are my favorite/the most helpful balayage tutorial!s🙌 Everything is so seamlessly diffused and the color gorgeous. Your technique with the paint brush (Who'da thunk? It makes perfect sense!) and "mohawk" sectioning at the part as saved me so much time with better & more consistent results. You also introduced me to Funked Up Film and Kenra Clay Lightener which I love! Thanks so much for your videos and congrats on baby Arrow!💗💕
Absolutely gorgeous!! 👏 I love the simplicity of the technique and your placement. (And I am hitting up Home Depot for one of those paint brushes, asap!) 😁
you are a boss! I would love to see more haircutting videos. I know some people may not enjoy them as much but I could really use some help in that department and you are a wonderful instructor! love you!
This is my first time watching any of your videos and i just wanted to say im so glad i did! This is a great video! You explain everything so well and i love that you didn’t leave anything out! I already subscribed and can’t wait for more videos from you! ❤️
i just wanted to let you know that you are an amazing stylist and are super informative! I hope i will be able to attend one of your classes some time soon!
Wow!!! I really really love this look!!!! Why can't you do hair in berlin??!! I'm looking for someone who does balayage the exact way you do it. Unfortunately most of the hairdressers/ hairstylists here still don't know the difference between an ombré and a balayage look!!! Well maybe I'll try it on my own with your video !!! Thank you for sharing!!
+Alexsis Mae I'm a huge fan of Kenra products and I wanted to thankyou so much for featuring this clay lightener!!! I have not tried it out yet but will certainly be doing so in the near future! I just subscribed!!!
Schwarzkopf blonde me lightning is the strongest lightener...plus it has built-in bond builder.... it lifts 9 levels quite quickly! I mix it with any clay lightener to do bayalage
Absolutely amazing thankyou so very much excellent tutorial ,could I please ask if you wanted to add in a low light with the balayage would you do the same techniques but just with a lowlight instead of the bleach ?
That looks amazing! Thanks for the info on the Kendra clay lightner. Iv been using redken clay lightner mixed in with Flashlift and has helped me. I think I used it in one of my videos. but I'll try this too. 😊
Wow, it really looks amazing!!! I recently got highlights and they ended up kinda chunky!! I would so love to live where you do now because a trip to your salon sounds amazing! Hehe! Thanks for sharing!
I want to thank you for helping me further my education!! I’m still in school and i absolutely love your methods!! You explain everything oh so well!! You’re great at what you do!
Love this video! good job and thank you!!! I have been starting too low in the back (sectioning) with short hair and having a patchy look and have been searching for advice on how to do short hair balayage better. thanks!!
+Kendra Lafferty yes, it's the same with highlighting short hair. You don't always have to color the nape area cause it's too short to put into a high pony tail so there not really any point unless they are solid blonde with natural dark roots!
Hands down best video on this technique! You are perfection! I have the same tone hair but I want my blondes to be not as warm a little more ash blonde; I’m getting the supplies from Schwarzkopf what toner do you suggest? And on a 30 developer? Thank you!
Hi Alexis, I have learned a ton with your videos, thank you for putting them out there. I was wondering, why is clay needed? can't you mix a really thick lightener consistency? just wondering and also, have you heard of malibu's kaolin clay? if so, what are your thoughts about it? again, thank you for teaching us starters or getting back into the hair game after a while. Xoxo!
+Saidymar Zuñiga clay works differently then powder lighteners that dry out and have a different texture. Clay is very necessary when wanting to do open air balayage or balayage like this 😉
HI would you recommend first bleaching small strands parts of hair (for highlights)and after that apply the colour to dye the hair ? ‘cause I've seen it done it backwards. I have a similar hair structure and length as the one from your video , but I haven’t dyed my hair for about 2 months now and I have grown roots and I’m not sure if the technique you are using would apply for me too. I've previously dyed my hair brown , so I haven’t bleached my hair before ( except the oxidants from the hair colour). Btw , The result is amazing , congrats
Do you find this clay to be better than Schwarzkopf as far as lift and non swelling? I’m moving from joico free play because I can’t find it anymore and I need maximum lift
Emily Pope I don't know why she does it but when I took a redken connections class the instructor said to never allow the shades eq to become frothy or foamy. Maybe that's why?
Since you’re not saturating the clay through the entire strand of hair you have does that help create dimension with the pieces underneath not being lightened?
I just subscribed ur channel you are just amazing😍😍 I just have one question isn't powder lightener is 1 to 1 why did u mix 1 part lightener and 2 parts developer? To give it a more lift or its just the way in clay lighteners? Can v double the developer in powder bleach to give it more lift?
Oooh this was helpful, thank you! What if they don't have a consistent part? (I'll part my hair on the left, middle, or right depending on how my hair is falling that day.) How does that change how you do that mohawk area?
best and easiest balayage tutorial Ive seen yet. I need to do this on myself and know its going to be harder but I am determined. Thanks for the brush and clay suggestion.
Lupie Housewife please don’t
Doing my first balayage on a client tomorrow. I've been practicing all week and I'm super nervous, this video has really calmed my nerves and helped me prepare. Thank you so much.

How did it go ?

+Steffan James oh thank you! I'm just not really into teaching cuts since I'm left handed and the majority of people are right handed lol!
that's a bummer but I will always watch your videos! I wanna learn from the best!
Alexsis Mae I would love cutting videos I'm left handed ! 😩 and everyone that educates is right.
I AM from Brazil AND AND I IN SHOCK WITH HIS WORK, WONDERFUL
+Kims thank you!!!! Hugs to Brazil!
Glad you broke the rules as a little heat really helps when in a salon setting and waiting for that lift. Looks lovely.
WOW, this is so beautiful! Thank you for showing the front sectioning technique in total detail!
I am also on my way to Home Depot!!! Also picking up the Kenra Clay Lightener!!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH Alexis!!!!

Love that you are doing it on dark hair! Love it! Are you using a special clay lightener or can you use any 40 volume lightener?
i just wanted to let you know that you are an amazing stylist and are super informative! I hope i will be able to attend one of your classes some time soon!

Hey Alexis! Just loved how you balayage!! So gorgeous result, congrats!! =)
This is SO PRETTY! I have a question tho, why do you swish as opposed to shake your shades eq toner?
Emily Pope I don't know why she does it but when I took a redken connections class the instructor said to never allow the shades eq to become frothy or foamy. Maybe that's why?
+Emily Pope it breaks apart the color, it's meant to be swirled or lightly shaken (really light). Keeps the color intact.
amazing sis
Awesome work Alexsis!!! Wish you could do my hair! Loved this color on her!
+jamie anglin thank you!!!! I wish I could pop all over to do everyone's hair 😂
Love the paint brush! I've had mine for a couple months now and cannot go back. How long did it take you to paint on her lightener?
+Katie Burgess it normally takes me 30min to an hour depending on their hair
Love the chip brushes too!
+Kevin Onthank they are the best!
Amazing tutorial
Since you’re not saturating the clay through the entire strand of hair you have does that help create dimension with the pieces underneath not being lightened?
Exactly. That’s how Balayage works!
TALENT ! X
Really good video i Love the color 😍
Thank you so much!
Love you spirit for teaching.
Muy muy bonito felicidades 😍
Wow I love this! I'm interested in doing my hair just like this. But my hair color is dark brown. How many sessions would this take?
+Alondra Duran it's just depends on what's on your hair currently.
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amiga me encanto el trabajo que hiciste , Padrisimo me gustaria tenerlo exactamente asiii yo te doy un 10 buen😘🤩😍
Beautifully done !

This is stunning, I need this done to my hair pronto! :)
Thank you! It’s such a fun color!
Awesome video and very helpful.
Wow, just gorgeous
😊 thank you
Beautiful
Definetly going to try this on my next client!!
Tag me on Instagram if you post it!
The highlights turned out so pretty. I have very fine and thin hair so would this give it some volume?
+Miranda frost it so much volume, but any time you give hair dimension it makes it look thicker!
Beautiful work!!!
+Erika Sanchez 😍❤️😘
wow! That's beautiful!!
+mattiesful xoxo 😘
Great job. I love freehand:)
+Robina's tips thank you! Me too 😉
I was always told to never use metal with hair lightened. The metal on that brush isn't a problem? Beautiful job by the way.
christieyamm It's okay because the lightener itself doesn't touch the metal on the brush 😊
+christieyamm exactly, it doesn't touch the lightener.
great video thank you so much that was so thorough. love it
Yayyyy I love Alexis!! 💕
+LauraKat87 I love you!!!!
Oooh this was helpful, thank you! What if they don't have a consistent part? (I'll part my hair on the left, middle, or right depending on how my hair is falling that day.) How does that change how you do that mohawk area?
I keep the Mohawk area over the part line, but if you switch it up I would keep it centered to the head!
@@AlexsisMae Okay! Thanks 😊
Beautiful Job!
