What is foilayage?

According toThe Right Hairstyles, foilayage is a new technique that is a mix of foils and balayage.

While using balayage, hairdressers will use foils in this technique to ensure the hair dyes lighter and blonder.

Using the foilayage technique also lets the hairdresser dye sections of your hair, in a more targeted manner.

The foilayage technique is also best for those with darker hair (viaTierney Salons).
