Balayage in Brooklyn
Beautiful, lived-in color. Made for you.
The best balayage feels effortless. Soft dimension, brightness in all the right places, and color that looks just as beautiful growing out as it does the day you leave the salon.
At Gem House Salon in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, we create customized balayage and dimensional hair color that works with your natural hair, your style, and how often you want to visit the salon.
Whether you're dreaming of a sun-kissed brunette, creamy blonde, or something a little brighter, we'll make it yours.
A Little More Dimension. A Lot More You.
Great balayage isn't about following the same formula for everyone.
It's about knowing where to place brightness, where to keep depth, and how to create a beautiful blend that complements your natural color.
Our stylists combine customized balayage, hand painting, and foiling techniques to create everything from subtle, sun-kissed highlights to brighter, lived-in blondes.
The result? Hair color that feels fresh, dimensional, and entirely your own.
Find Your Perfect Balayage
Half Balayage | Starting at $330
A little brightness goes a long way. Perfect for adding soft dimension around your face and through the top of your hair, or refreshing your existing balayage.
Full Balayage | Starting at $380
For guests looking for brightness and dimension throughout their hair. Ideal for a more noticeable transformation or a complete color refresh.
Beautiful Color That Grows With You
One of the best things about balayage? It can be as low maintenance as you want it to be.
With thoughtful placement and a softer transition from your natural color, balayage can grow out beautifully between appointments.
Whether you love a seasonal refresh or prefer to maintain your blonde more frequently, we'll create a color plan that fits your lifestyle.
And when your color just needs a little something between visits? A gloss can bring back tone and shine without another full balayage appointment.
