Best Hair Colouring Highlights near me in Swanspool, Wellingborough

Highlights lighten sections for brightness and dimension. Lowlights add darker tones for depth. Balayage is a freehand painting technique that creates sun-kissed, blended colour with softer regrowth. Many stylists combine all three for a multi-dimensional result.

The cost of highlights varies according to the type and coverage you go for. Expect to pay anywhere from £10 and £90.

Your highlights may start to dull after a couple of weeks, and by 4 weeks, you’ll probably begin to see your roots. To help maintain the shine and keep your hair in optimal condition, it’s recommended that you wash your it less frequently (1-3 times a week is enough); avoid products containing silicone, ammonia, and sulphates which dry and even break your hair; and protect your hair with a pre-wash treatment designed for colored hair. It’s a good idea to use a deeply nourishing hair conditioner, too, and avoid using heated styling products.
