B) Balayage

If you're into balayage, you're definitely low maintenance. You like to stay calm, read books and sip on tea during your down time. Everyone describes you as "peaceful" or "shy," and you have a small, tight-knit group of friends that you wouldn't trade for the world.

C) Highlights

If you'd rather get highlights, you're more of a classic lady. You stick by the rules, and you prefer balance and the predicatable over constant change in your life. You live a work hard, play hard lifestyle: you know when to stay focused, but you also know how to let loose and party once in a whlie.

D) Lowlights

Lowlights are for the girls who like a natural look. They don't find a need to overdress for every occasion and they would rather spend their time at the beach than the club. These girls are tons of fun, but also don't like to be the center of attention all the time. They're chill, free-spirited ladies who know how to follow the beat of their own drum.
