Sporting his surfer-guy ombré hair during awards season, Jared Leto showed that the whole freehand highlight movement shows no sign of slowing down. While certainly very LA, his look is also extremely on trend and what's so great about it is that it requires very little upkeep. Within a salon, men's freehand services are a quick and effective option - either balayaging the ends on longer hair to give a sun-kissed look (and what guy doesn't want to look like he’s been on vacation for a month?) or if we're looking at quiffs and longer hair through the top, we can paint on some balayage highlights through the front giving us a much less obvious regrowth and a softer feel than with foils. In the States, balayage has been a service for men and women for a long time. Jared has just upped the game by going a little stronger with the contrast and that's just all down to taste levels. Men love this service because of its speed and also because they not sat there with a load of foils in, just a few hand-painted pieces."
