Ladies style Short-Mid length
He is always honest about whether a certain colouring is achieveable
Sunny has been colouring and cutting my hair for two years now. I've never found my primary go-to until I met Sunny. He is always honest about whether a certain colouring is achieveable and he educates me on my hair on how to best maintain it! Amazing hair dresser, will always trust him with my hair.
Fresh Balayage & Soft Face Frame for a Busy Mum | Low-Maintenance Hair Colour Melbourne
My guest is a vibrant woman in her 40s – a proud mum of four, balancing family life and work in Melbourne. She came to me needing a fresh, playful look for an upcoming dance party — something effortless, natural, and low-maintenance, so she wouldn’t need to visit the salon often.

During our chat, she told me:
👉 "I want something fresh for the party but don’t want to spend hours styling or come back to the salon every few weeks."
Her main concerns were:
⚠️Patchy grey regrowth, mostly at the crown and front
⚠️Wavy, thick hair that can make her narrow face look slimmer
⚠️Old box dye layers, which could affect how the colour lifts
So I gave her two tailored options, based on her lifestyle, face shape, and hair history:
________________________________________
Technique & Options
✨ Option 1: Shoulder-Length + Beige Highlights
Cutting to the shoulders removed more of the uneven, dye-heavy ends and reduced grey regrowth at the tips. This helped us:
• Achieve a lighter lift (around level 8.5)
• Blend the grey softer and more evenly
• Create a fresh, sun-kissed beige tone
This option is perfect for those who want a cleaner colour blend, less warmth, and just 1–3 mins of styling daily.
----------------------------------------------------------------
✨ Option 2: Keep Length + Golden Highlights
If she preferred to keep her length, we’d need to work around the box dye. The challenge here is:
• Old dye can lift unevenly and push warmth or orange tones
• Highlights won’t get as light as Option 1 in one go
• Resulting blend would be slightly warmer and darker
It’s still a beautiful look, just a longer journey to the goal. It needs 5–8 mins of daily styling to maintain softness and flow.

What We Did
She chose Option 1. I gave her a soft, shoulder-length haircut to frame her face and added cool beige balayage highlights on a neutral brown base. We focused on blending greys while being mindful of past colour build-up.
The colour technique was designed for natural regrowth, so she can enjoy this look for 4–5 months without harsh lines or brassiness.

The Result
✅ Fresh, playful, and effortless – just what she needed
✅ Lighter highlights for soft grey blending
✅ No harsh grow-out lines
✅ Easy to style for both everyday and party vibes
Next time, we’ll refresh with a half-head balayage and base touch-up to keep it long-lasting and seamless.
