The Ultimate Guide to Hair Salons in Bali

Where to Get the Perfect lived in Blonde 

Whether you’re a beach-loving expat, a digital nomad, or a visiting on holidays and wanting to glow finding the right hair salon in Bali can make all the difference, especially if you’re dreaming of that perfect blonde or sun-kissed balayage.

 

What to Look for in a Bali Hair Salon

When choosing a salon in Bali, consider:

  • Expertise in blonding and balayage: Lightening hair is an art, ensure you have selected a stylist who understands different tones of blondes, lifting your hair and protecting your hair from any damage

  • High-quality products: Look for salons that use premium brands like Olaplex, Davines, or Alfaparf to protect and nourish your hair.

  • Experienced stylists: Check portfolios and instagram to ensure the stylists work aligns with what you like

  • Comfortable, clean, and inviting space: A great salon should feel like a sanctuary, not just an appointment.

 

 

Why Blonde and Balayage are Perfect for Bali

Blonde and balayage styles complement Bali’s tropical aesthetic beautifully. Sun-kissed tones look natural and blend seamlessly with the island lifestyle. Plus, these styles tend to grow out gracefully, meaning fewer touch-ups if you’re traveling or spending long stretches in the sun and salt water.


Maintaining Your Color in Bali’s Climate

The humidity, sun, and ocean can challenge even the best color work. Here’s how to keep your blonde or balayage looking fresh:

  • Use sulfate-free, color-safe shampoos.

  • Schedule regular gloss or toner appointments to refresh your blonde

  • Always protect your hair with leave-in conditioners or UV sprays before the beach

  • Use a shower filter and salon quality products at home

  • Stay away from chlorine!

Our most asked question!
The Difference Between Highlights and Balayage

While both highlights and balayage are techniques used to add dimension and lightness to the hair, they create very different looks and involve different application methods.


Highlights - use foils to isolate strands of hair that are then lightened from roots to end. This method creates a more uniform, brighter effect and allows for a higher lift (lighter blonde shades). Highlights tend to have a more structured and defined appearance, making this technique ideal for clients who want overall brightness.

Balayage - Creates a more natural-looking gradient and lived-in look. Balayage technique will result in a softer grow-out and lower maintenance compared to traditional highlights. This style mimics the way the sun naturally lightens hair and is perfect for creating effortless, beachy dimension.


Our stylists are experts in both techniques and can help guide you to the option that best suits your hair goals and lifestyle.
