  6. JACQUELINE M. –

    Having the foils stacked up is genius!!! I will certainly be doing this technique.

  7. CRISTINA L. –

    thank you ! It is beautiful ! Would be great if we can download the head sheets as well .

  8. SHAWN O. –

    Very good instructor. Video quality was great ( unlike other platforms). Only giving 4 stars because I don’t consider this a balayage, and it seems like a lot of foils to fall under an express service ( at least for me,until I get my speed up)

  9. KARLA R. –

    Love the Technique 🤩

  10. ROSMARIE C. –

    Does this technique work for wavy hair?

  12. JALEH F. –

    I liked your balayage you did , thanks

    Great technique! I really liked the foils being folded on the highlighting board. Brilliant! My comment that isn’t in alignment with your info is the Luma Lightener that you mentioned. When a lightener, or even a hair color, advocates Ammonia Free, my first question would be, What did they replace it with? Anything that lightens the hair needs an alkali. Ammonia or a derivative. The derivative is typically MEA. Monoethanolamine. I personally am not a fan of MEA. It creates too many issues when coloring/lightening. It isn’t a Free Gas like Ammonia. It stays in the hair and makes it feel dry. Human beings are Ammonia. Ever been in an outhouse? Ryan is a great educator and I love his energy while trying to teach eager minds how to up their game behind the chair. Nice job!

  14. JALEH F. –

    Thanks I looked at it several times

  15. ASHLEY T. –

    Very versatile and can definitely be tweaked for individual clients needs. I can definitely see this being done regularly on multiple guests! Any tips on how to make this “express” or cut it down to 30 minutes or less?

  16. DAWN F. –

    Love this so much! I can’t wait to use these techniques on my curly clients.

    This was a simple and clever way to create a balayage look. I can get lost in my head and overthink how to map out a partial balayage and this really brings it all together so simply. Definitely learned a lot and can’t wait to try it in the salon.

  18. LINA H. –

    This is a great class for a beginner like me, but did he miss weaving the right part at the front?

  19. SANDRA F. –

    Hey Ryan thank you for sharing.! LOVE the technique!

  20. JALEH F. –

    Thanks , it was great class

  21. JACQUELINE C. –

    Loved the teacher

  22. YVONNE E. –

    So great & I’m totally going to promote for my graying clients. Ryan is fun and Gerard is a masterful host and question-asker on our behalf. Simple and terrific add-on or touch up technique. Thank you!
