Full head highlights deliver bright, even lift with tailored dimension from hairline to crown. A custom toner refines the shade for a flattering, polished finish. Expect soft grow-out and colour that enhances your cut, whether you prefer natural, classic or statement blonding.

## What's Included

Everything needed for bright, seamless highlights from root to tip.

-   Personal consultation to map your goals, maintenance level and skin tone.
-   Custom foil placement across the full head for even brightness and dimension.
-   Professional lightener application with careful processing and strand checks.
-   Toner or gloss to refine shade, neutralise warmth and add shine.
-   Cleanse, condition and blow-dry to reveal the result.
-   Styling advice and homecare recommendations.
-   Option to add a haircut or strengthening treatment if desired.

### Who It's For

Ideal if you want your whole look lifted, from soft sun-kissed brightness to high-impact blonde. Great for diffusing early greys and creating dimension on any base.

Works on straight, wavy or curly hair and suits all genders. We tailor foil size, placement and tone to your texture, density and maintenance preference.

### Duration & Appointment Timing

Allow 135 to 150 minutes for a full head of highlights, including consultation, foiling, processing, toning and a professional finish. Adding a haircut or intensive treatment will require extra time, so mention this when you book.

Arrive with hair that is dry and free from heavy oils or styling build-up. For events, book 1 to 2 weeks ahead to allow for a toner tweak if needed.

### Aftercare & Maintenance

Wait 48 hours before your first wash to help the cuticle settle. Use colour-safe shampoo and conditioner, and protect with heat spray before styling.

Neutralise warmth with a violet or blue shampoo once a week, adjusting to your tone. Treat lengths with a nourishing mask weekly to keep ends glossy.

Most clients refresh toner at 4 to 6 weeks and book new highlights at 8 to 12 weeks. You can alternate full and half head appointments to manage regrowth and time.

    > 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!
    

## Frequently Asked Questions

What result can I expect from a full head of highlights?

Bright, all-over lift with multi-dimensional tones. The brightness and tone are set to suit your base colour, skin tone and preferred look.

Will highlights damage my hair?

We assess your hair and choose the right formulas to respect condition. Processing is monitored and professional care is used, with homecare advice to keep hair strong and glossy.

How often will I need maintenance?

Most clients refresh toner every 4 to 6 weeks and book highlights every 8 to 12 weeks. We can alternate with half head services to manage regrowth and time.

How is a full head different from half head or balayage?

A full head covers the entire head for maximum brightness and even dimension. A half head focuses on the top and sides, while balayage is hand painted for a softer, lower maintenance grow-out.

Do I need a skin test before colour?

A colour sensitivity test may be required at least 48 hours before your first appointment or if your colour history changes. We will advise when you book.
