Air touch is a color technique used to create a seamless blended color. This technique got its name from the requirement of use of air from a blow dryer, instead of back combing or weaving to create that perfect blend. It is different than any other highlight or balayage technique, the results will be natural & seamless as if it was grown out of your head!

How is it done? You take a section of hair with tension, and use a blow dryer to push the shorter hairs down and out of the way. Color or lightener is then applied on the remaining hair that is still held in tension. Airtouch is very innovative in the way you can bring the color either close to the root for a more highlighted look, or you can also combine it with a balayage paint technique if you would like to add more brightness to your ends as well. The best part about it? Your hair will grow out beautifully with no harsh demarcations because of how seamless this technique is. There’s nothing quite like it!

Airtouch may also be a safer option if you have thinner / medium density hair. When blowdrying a section of hair during this technique , your shorter & delicate pieces of hair are pushed out the way leaving only your longer pieces of hair to be colored. The results? A harmonious blend of your natural color mixed with your blonde. Another benefit to Airtouch is since it is so seamless, you can go longer in between touchups since it blends so well with your natural color.

In conclusion, if you have been thinking about lightning your hair and would like to have a more blended and low maintenance color - this is the service for you. Air touch is becoming a worldwide phenomenon, and for very clear reasons! It’s a stunning and seamless look, that will for sure have you never looking back to traditional highlighting.
