What are highlights?
Hair highlighting is when a hairdresser changes their client’s hair color picking out only some hairs. This may be done by using bleach, hair dye, or both. The idea is to create depth, and make the hair look more natural and fuller. There are a few basic types of hair highlighting, including foil highlights, chunking, hair painting, and frosting. You can get highlights no matter if you have short, medium, or long hair.
What to expect from a highlights appointment?
First of all, expect that you will spend some time at the hair salon. Depending on what specifically you’re going for, you may end up sitting in the chair for a few hours. Additionally, when you opt for foil highlights, be ready that you may be a bit uncomfortable. All in all, a highlights appointment will be fairly similar to a normal hair coloring appointment. The hairdresser will use various products and techniques to manipulate your hair color.
How do you prepare for a highlights appointment?
A good idea is to clean up your ends. Cut the broken and thin ends, this will make your highlights pop even more. Try to hydrate and nourish your hair as much as possible. Drink water, use a mask, and avoid thermal treatments. Moreover, browse the web for inspiration. Once you find some pictures, save them, and show them later to your hairdresser when you come in for your visit. This will make the process much easier!
