Which do you guys prefer? Personally, I prefer the balayage one which came with Backyard Stuff. Makes any sim look more 'natural' & refreshing.

    depends on the sims style. I have found that if I let myself develop favorite CAS stuff then my sims end up being to "samey"

    Yeah personally I'm a huge fan of balayage but I like ombres too. I think we need more hairs with balayage though.

    I would like backyard stuff for the hair! Now I just go with what I have, that's solids mostly.

    You made me google what is balayage :p

    I love balayage hair. I actually have that done to my hair IRL.

    But that hair from backyard stuff is one of my favorites honestly. It's actually one of the reasons I wanted that pack so bad hahaha

    Isn't ombre and balyage the same thing? I just like saying balyage because it sounds fancy.

    Balayage is when they actually use a brush and freely paint on the highlights on your hair. Using the brush (rather than foils) is what gives it that unique transition into the highlight. It is very similar to ombre, and I would've thought the same until the girl who does my hair explained it to me lol

    I remember when Backyard Stuff came out people were calling the hair ombre. I don't own the pack so which is it really?

    @luimistelija I believe it is balayage. Ombre is more like Candy's hair from Get Together where there is a visible line of transition between the 2 colors. Both are nice but I <3 the balayage a little bit more.

    *Googles Balayage* OOOH! Yes, I do like that a bit more mostly because it looks more natural. I feel like these solid colours are too much and I wish we had the balayage options with every hairstyle.

    Balyage used to just be called brushed on highlights, it isn't new it's just been renamed. Ombre is transitional from roots to tips going from any one color to another.
