Highlights

Highlights create elegant dimension and lift while keeping your colour natural and wearable. Expect a tailored consultation, careful blending for a soft grow-out, and a polished finish with healthy shine.

More information

Highlights are ideal when you want brighter, more refined colour without a solid, all-over look. Your appointment starts with a detailed consultation to agree the level of lightness, placement and tone, with a focus on blending greys and keeping regrowth subtle. We prioritise hair condition throughout, then finish so the colour looks smooth, glossy and easy to style. You will also leave with clear guidance on upkeep and the best timing for your next refresh.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I expect from a highlights appointment?
You will begin with a consultation to agree your desired brightness, tone and overall look. The colour work is planned for a seamless result, then finished so it looks polished and wearable. You will also get simple guidance on maintaining shine and softness at home.
Who are highlights best suited to?
Highlights suit anyone who wants dimension and lightness with a natural finish, including those looking to soften or blend greys. They can be tailored for subtle enhancement or a brighter change while staying refined. Your stylist will advise what will flatter your colouring and lifestyle.
How often should highlights be maintained?
Most clients refresh highlights every 6–10 weeks, depending on how much contrast you like and how quickly your hair grows. A softer, more blended result can allow longer between visits. At your appointment, you will be advised on a schedule that keeps regrowth looking intentional.
How do I look after highlights between appointments?
Use colour-safe products and prioritise hydration to keep the hair feeling smooth and looking glossy. Limiting heat and using a protectant helps preserve tone and condition. If your hair tends to dull or warm up, ask for guidance on a routine that keeps it bright and refined.
Will highlights damage my hair?
Any lightening can be sensitising, but highlights can be planned to protect the overall condition of your hair. Your stylist will consider your hair’s history, strength and goals before recommending the best approach. Ongoing conditioning and the right homecare make a noticeable difference to shine and feel.
