With winter underway, many are eager to refresh their hair. Balayage continues to shine for adding dimension and light, but celebrity hairstylist Corey Tuttle has spotlighted a fresh technique captivating brunettes: tiger eye balayage.
“Tiger’s eye is an ancient stone—a variety of quartz—prized for protection and boosting confidence, known for its rich brown and gold tones,” Tuttle shares with Byrdie.
The stone is also revered for its healing properties, making tiger eye an empowering choice to start the new year with strength and vitality, per Tuttle. Achieve it by requesting “hand-colored caramel highlights on a chocolate base with cool or warm undertones” from your stylist. Like traditional balayage, it looks natural, holds color beautifully, and blends seamlessly with regrowth.
Stars like Jennifer Lopez, Jessica Alba, and Miranda Kerr swear by it—check their social media or Instagram for inspiration from real clients who've tried it.
