Experiments with balayage on short hair sometimes look even more spectacular than on long hair. Dimensional highlights make the haircut expensive and soigne. Balayage is a free-hand technique — the stylist applies colors to the hair as an arbitrary pattern, thus making it look similar to naturally sun-kissed strands. Worth trying, and this is why!

Check out these hair color ideas for short hair to feel gorgeous, stunning, and modern. Forget the old method of foil highlights done in a hair shop next to the house!
