Without a doubt, this is the biggest hair colour trend that’s currently raging in all major fashion capitals! Such as Tokyo, New York, Taipei and Shanghai.
Psst… There are lots of Airtouch Balayage inspirations created by us below. So, scroll on.
What is Airtouch Balayage?
The Airtouch Balayage hair colour trend started to gain traction 2 years back. This technique is unique in that it uses air, versus traditional teasing and backcombing, to achieve a seamless blend of colours. To attain this, hair is parted into sections and highlighted in foils. It is like a crossbreed between Balayage, Sombre and Highlights.
What Should You Take Note Before Trying Out This New Airtouch Balayage Hair Colour Trend?
For extreme light shades, never try to undergo several rounds of bleaching in a single session to avoid breakage. Instead, split your salon visit into 2 separate seatings.
Pastels and light blondes are cool. However, we strongly recommend customers to saturate their hair with darker pigments. This is because bleached hair tends to “bleed” faster. Ultimately, it will fade to a paste or light blonde shade, anyway.
Always use a demi-permanent (instead of permanent) dye to tone the hair after bleaching to allow “clean” fading. This way, there is no need to bleach the previously lightened parts during future visits to avoid lengthy colour correction and further damage.

Why is Airtouch Balayage Hair Colour Trend So Popular in Asia?
Traditional freehand or Balayage techniques do not lighten Asian hair effectively. That’s because Asian hair tends to contain darker and warmer melanin. Airtouch Balayage, on the other hand, saturates sections of the hair in bleach and seals them in foils. Thus, enabling effective lightening.
Moreover, this hair colour trend looks equally good whether customers prefer to wear their hair straight or curled, unlike conventional Balayage.
Bonus: The hair still looks great after fading to a blonde base!
With more hairstylists in Asia adopting this technique, this hair colour trend will definitely rise in popularity in years to come.
How to Care for Your Hair Before, During and After an Airtouch Balayage Service?
Before your salon visit, swap your usual moisturising hair care routine for a strengthening one to improve its resilience. Such as Oribe Hair Alchemy range.
During the service, always ask for protective plex treatments such as Goldwell BondPro to be added to the lightener. Whenever possible, misting the hair with Advante Water before the procedure, will significantly reduce the risk of breakage.
After the service, replace your usual conditioner with Advante Treatment to nourish hair from within. Using a colour depositing shampoo will also be required to refresh the hair colour.
