## What it is

Highlights lighten selected sections of hair against your base colour, so light catches your hair as it moves instead of it reading as one flat tone. Done well, they add real dimension without ever looking like a completely different colour job.

We section and place highlights based on how you actually wear your hair — face-framing pieces, all-over brightness, or something more subtle — then tone and gloss to finish, so the result looks like sun-kissed depth, not stripes.

## What you get

- Real dimension, not a flat single tone
- Face-framing or all-over placement
- Toned and glossed for a clean finish
- Grows out softer than a full colour change

## What this solves

The worry with highlights is always the same — stripy, obvious placement instead of natural-looking dimension. Careful sectioning and the right technique is what prevents that.

- Wanting brightness without committing to a full colour change
- Worry that highlights will look stripy or obvious
- Flat, one-note hair colour with no depth
- Wanting a look that grows out gracefully

## How the appointment runs

1. **Consult & Plan Placement** — We discuss the look you want and plan exactly where highlights will go.
2. **Section & Lighten** — Sections are lightened using foil or hand-painted technique, to the level you agreed.
3. **Tone & Gloss** — A toner and gloss refine the colour to a clean, intentional finish.
4. **Style & Reveal** — A full blow-dry shows off the finished dimension.

## Why here

- **Placement matched to how you wear your hair** — We plan placement around your parting and how you actually style your hair, not a generic pattern, so the dimension shows up where you'll actually see it.
- **Toned and glossed, not left brassy** — Every highlight service finishes with toning and a gloss, so you leave with a clean, intentional tone rather than a raw, brassy lift.
- **Foil or balayage, whichever suits your hair** — We choose foil or a hand-painted balayage technique based on your hair and the look you want, not a one-size-fits-all default.

## Aftercare

- **Go sulphate-free** — Colour-safe shampoo keeps highlights bright and stops brassiness creeping in.
- **Use a purple or toning shampoo weekly** — Keeps warmth in check between salon toning sessions.
- **Book a gloss refresh** — A gloss every 6–8 weeks keeps tone fresh even before you need a full re-highlight.

## FAQ

**How is this different from balayage?**

Highlights are usually applied with foil for a more uniform, all-over lift; balayage is hand-painted freehand for a softer, more graduated look. We'll recommend based on the finish you want and how low-maintenance you need the grow-out to be.

**Will highlights look stripy?**

Not with careful sectioning and placement matched to how you actually wear your hair — that's the entire point of the consultation before we start.

**How often do I need to redo them?**

Most clients come back every 8–12 weeks for a refresh, longer than a full colour or root touch-up since highlights grow out more softly.

**Can I get highlights on previously coloured hair?**

Usually yes — we'll check your colour history and hair condition first and let you know honestly if it needs a corrective step before highlighting.

**Do highlights damage hair?**

Any lightening process affects hair to some degree, which is why we assess condition first and use bond-friendly additives. If your hair isn't ready for it, we'll say so rather than risk it.
