The right brush is so important for balayage, my personal favourite is Sassoon brushes, so me they are not too big, the right amount of flexabilty and only one row of bristles.

I find if you rinse them in really hot water it helps to take out any kinks in the plastic bristles.

Like the idea with the clips!

I found that sometimes even when I take really thin sections, that occasional spotting occurs D: I am desperate to perfect this technique. Freebies for friends is on the cards I feel.

i have to same problem! i think its bcos i use the lower percentage and im a little too impatient and not leaving it quite long enough, but i would rather low and slow on the ends. i usually use foil rather than cling film to try help trap the heat abit more also, but any tips/constructive critisism would be most welcome!
