Balayage Highlights on Dark Hair – My New Hair for Spring and Summer 2016

18 March 2016

Balayage Highlights on Dark Hair - My New Hair Colour 2016 Ysis Lorenna

I’ve done it again! I’ve had my hair dyed lighter for Spring and Summer, and this time my hairdresser went for chestnut and honey balayage highlights. I haven’t been able to stop looking at my hair since yesterday and I absolutely love the way my new hair colour turned out.

I’ve done a short video below explaining better my balayage highlights on dark hair, so press play below or click here to watch the video.

My hairdresser’s name is Ivan and he is absolutely amazing! He is London-based, but he travels all over the UK to see clients. If you want to contact him, send him a message on his Facebook page.

    This looks great! I love the dimension it adds and how much more modern it feels.

    Your hair looks gorgeous!!! I had tried balayage once but it didn’t look half as nice as your hair does. Perhaps next time, I should carry a picture of your hair to show the hair stylist…..

    Love your new hair colour! For ages, I’ve been wanting something similar done to mine but its so hard to find a good hair dresser who can colour dark hair properly! May have to check him out. Thanks for sharing!

How are you all feeling? Really, how’s your mind How are you all feeling? Really, how’s your mind right now? It’s so important to check in with ourselves instead of ignoring how we feel and burying our heads in housework, jobs, kids and life admin.

💫 What do I need?

That’s a good way to start. I’ll list a few things I need right now. They don’t all have to be grand things, sometimes I only need the smallest things.

1. I need to wash my hair.
2. I need silence.
3. I need to rearrange some rooms in the house (don’t know why I need this, but I really do).
4. I need to zero my inbox.
5. I need uninterrupted sleep.
6. I need a good hearty meal.
7. I need to exercise.
8. I need to smile.
9. I need to see my mum.
10. I need to put my needs first.

If I were to pick just one need right this second, I’d say number 2. I’m normally really sensitive to loud noises, but today... dear me! Even a slightly louder whisper was annoying me! 🙈
I mean... I can barely see him but I’m well jeal I mean... I can barely see him but I’m well jealous of this cosy situation! 😍 Oh Benji boy, you’re bringing us so much joy already! 🐶🤎

Trust the process ✨ I chose this phrase to repre Trust the process ✨ I chose this phrase to represent 2021 for me and it couldn’t be more fitting.

Every time I find myself thinking things won’t work out before even giving it a chance, I repeat to myself “trust the process”. It gives me the strength I need to keep going and just like that... things do work out. Always.

This lockdown has been so much harder than the first one for me. How have you found it?

I thought it was going to be the same or easier than the first time because we’d done it before, but it’s actually been so much more testing.

The only way I’m getting through it is by 💫 trusting the process 💫
Pretty much where we’ve spent the last 2 days! 🐾🐶 Benji is settling in brilliantly and I’m so proud of the kids for showing him a lot of love and affection... and of course, plenty of playfulness! 🥰 Now we need to work on his nipping - those puppy teeth are sharp and it seems little kiddies’ wiggly toes are irresistible! Any tips? 🤎

Meet Benji 🐶🐾🤎 . Yesterday we added a lit Meet Benji 🐶🐾🤎

Yesterday we added a little furry friend to our family and he is just the most perfect little pup! 😍 We’re so in love with him already, the kids literally haven’t left his side. We’ve wanted a puppy since before we had kids, but decided to wait a bit.  Benji joining our family now couldn’t have come at a better time and he’s such a loving pup. Just look at that face! ☺️

He is a chocolate roan show cocker spaniel and he’s 8 weeks old today 🍫❤️ His first night went so well, I’ll have to tell you all about it at some point, but for now I’ll leave you with these pup pics to warm your hearts! 🥰
