My foil method changed after watching a stylist in Tulsa
I used to weave every single section, took me 45 minutes for a full head. Watched this one stylist at a class in Tulsa do a slice instead, and it cut my time down to 25 minutes with better dimension. That was 3 months ago and my balayage clients are getting way more natural growth lines now. Anyone else switch from weaving to slicing and notice their color melt look different?
Oh wow, this is making me rethink everything! I was team weave for years and honestly thought slicing gave choppy results, so I never even gave it a fair shot. But hearing that your balayage clients are getting softer grow out lines makes total sense, because a slice lays down more product in one pass and blends easier. I always figured weaving gave me more control, but 20 minutes saved per head adds up fast when you're booked back to back. Now I'm wondering if my weave habit is why some of my clients get that striped look after a few weeks. Guess I know what I'm testing on my next foil client.
