Her World Hair Awards 2022: Best salons in Singapore for balayage and hair colour

WHERE Chez Vous

TREATMENT Airtouch Balayage with Hair Defence Technology, from $455

WHAT IT IS Instead of the usual teasing and backcombing method, this uses air from a blow dryer to achieve a seamless blend of colour. Paired with Chez Vous’ unique pre-chemical multi-step treatment to minimise damage during the colour service, hair not only looks good, but feels healthy too.

WHY WE LOVE IT “The results were really quite significant. Our freshly washed hair was still relatively easy to comb through despite undergoing bleaching. We also loved how its texture stayed frizz-free, even after a blow-dry.”

WHERE District 19

TREATMENT Balayage, from $350 (includes haircut, bleaching and postcolour
treatment)

WHAT IT IS Forget blocky chunks of colour. At District 19, the dye is carefully painted on to create a soft, graduated and natural-looking highlight effect that grows out beautifully.

WHY WE LOVE IT “We were very satisfied with the overall look. The colour chosen by the stylist complemented our facial features and skin tone.”

WHERE Salon Vim

TREATMENT French Balayage, from $250

WHAT IT IS An easy-to-maintain, fuss-free balayage that uses a French highlighting technique from the 1960s. This highly personalised painting technique ensures that the colour is perfectly blended for a natural-looking, wearable finish.

WHY WE LOVE IT “We were truly impressed with the results. While the look was a little brighter than what we were used to, it was refreshing and brightened our look instantly.”

WHERE Salon B

TREATMENT Color Refresh, from $80

WHAT IT IS A quick colour service to help revive a dull and faded colour job, restoring its vibrancy in just 90 minutes.

WHY WE LOVE IT “The colour made us look younger and fresher. We were glowing post-service!”

WHERE Blonde & Pastel Hair Salon

TREATMENT Creative Colors, from $350 (includes haircut, bleaching and postcolour treatment)

WHAT IT IS The stylist’s creativity is only limited by your imagination. Choose from harmonious single shades to a blend of colours that will make a statement.

WHY WE LOVE IT “We love our new hair colour! We received numerous compliments from family, friends and even complete strangers. Even though our mane was bleached three times, our hair didn’t feel too dry or damaged.”

WHERE Chez Vous

TREATMENT Japanese Ash & Beige Hair Colours with Hair Defence Technology, from $455

WHAT IT IS The unique Japanese Hair Colouring Technology works especially well on Asian strands as it uses cool pigments to neutralise the warm hue in Asian hair. Combined with Chez Vous’ multipronged Hair Defence Technology, hair is protected and nourished during the service, and damage is minimised.

WHY WE LOVE IT “The colour and treatment really exceeded our expectations. The stylist was so meticulous in ensuring that future regrowth would be natural. The treatment also left our hair really smooth and soft, even after the first few washes.”

WHERE Apgujeong Hair Studio

TREATMENT Inoa Colouring Service, from $130

WHAT IT IS A gentle, ammonia-free colouring service that does not irritate the delicate scalp. Plus, it even offers 100 per cent grey hair coverage.

WHY WE LOVE IT “We were very happy with our colour. The experienced stylist was able to advise on which colour to pick as we had previously bleached our hair.”
