Balayage. I think ombré only looks good when the hair is curled.

Balayage is a type of highlights that are "painted on" and ombre is a gradient dip dye

From my understanding, a balyage is a type of highlights vs an ombré which colors all of your ends and it fades into blonde.

The title kind of explains it all. But I'm curious because I don't really see a difference between the two.
