Kara Richards

Kara Richard is a Balayage specialist, independent educator and salon owner in Santa Barbara, CA.

Kara’s background in visual art and education inspired her signature workshop, “The Art of Sunkissed Hair.” Kara has been teaching her “Santa Barbara Balayage” technique since 2015, and has been honored to travel to salons and beauty schools across the country, including the International Color Directors of the Vidal Sassoon Academy.

Her classes are unique in the way she teaches each colorist to use the knowledge of the laws of natural sunkissed hair color, along with one’s own “creative intuition” in order to build the confidence to paint the most beautiful, seamless looks on every client.

With such a concentration on perfecting the Balayage brush stroke, it was just a natural progression to create a line of Balayage brushes. Kara launched BALAYPRO Natural Bristle Brushes in 2016, and combines her love of Jack Winn Hair Color into her education program
