Expect lifted, multi-dimensional colour with a softer grow-out and easier upkeep. Placement and tone are tailored to your features, haircut and lifestyle for a refined, flattering finish.
More information
What's Included
Coverage where you see it most, with precise placement and tone control for a seamless blend.
- Personal colour consultation to set your shade, placement and maintenance plan.
- Bespoke foil placement across the top, crown and sides for balanced brightness.
- Controlled lightening to the right level for your hair history and goals.
- Tonal refinement to neutralise warmth or add sheen.
- Cleanse, condition and a professional finish so you leave photo-ready.
Who It's For
Ideal if you want a noticeable refresh without a full-head commitment. It brightens your parting, hairline and crown, keeping soft depth underneath for a natural, dimensional result.
Works for subtle through to bold looks. Great for blending early greys, softening regrowth lines and adding texture to fine hair. Suitable for all genders, hair types and lengths.
Duration & Appointment Timing
Allow around 135 minutes for this service. Timing varies with hair length, density and previous colour. If your hair is long, very thick or you are shifting several levels lighter, additional time may be required.
Your appointment includes consultation, application, processing and rinse with tonal refine as needed. Arrive with dry, detangled hair for the most accurate colour assessment.
Aftercare & Maintenance
Use sulphate-free shampoo and conditioner, and a heat protectant when styling. Purple or blue shampoo can be used occasionally to balance unwanted warmth.
Plan highlight maintenance every 8 to 12 weeks, depending on how soft you want your grow-out. A toner and blow-dry refresh at 4 to 6 weeks keeps your shade glossy between visits.

I always leave this place feeling fantastic and so well looked after! Anyone that gets highlights done knows that this means spending a number of hours in a salon. It makes such a difference when it’s somewhere you enjoy being! Thank you to the team for creating such a lovely relaxing environment. Thank you of course to James for always taking such good care of my hair!
