The Parisians know what they are doing when it comes to hair trends, don’t they? From balayage to worn blonde shades, my favourite French influencers are the first people I turn to for a little inspiration, especially when it comes to low-maintenance hair colours for spring and summer.
Let’s face it: none of us wants to spend our summer visiting the salon every six weeks to get our roots done. However, I do want a sun-kissed hair colour that makes it look like I’ve spent the past month in the South of France. So, it’s no surprise that the most stylish women in Paris are currently all opting for honey balayage hair this spring.
The French hair colouring technique rose to fame quite some time ago for its low-maintenance approach (I only have to get mine done every six months), but while blonde balayage has reigned supreme for the last few years, it seems a new honey shade is taking over.

Perfect for brunettes who want to go lighter or blondes who want to keep things warm and natural this season (it really is the perfect hybrid), honey balayage creates a gorgeous, sun-kissed, natural-looking effect with minimal effort. The best part of this colouring technique is that it doesn’t touch the roots, so it grows out beautifully, meaning you can leave it much longer between appointments. Don’t believe me? Keep on scrolling for my favourite honey balayage hair looks below.
