The lifespan of your highlights will vary according to the type of highlights you get, how well you take care of them, and your hair’s natural color. Treat them right and they’ll last 6-8 weeks.

Try choosing highlights that complement your eye color and complexion. If you have blue eyes and fair skin, for example, cool platinum is a good match; if you have a warm complexion with hazel, grey, or green eyes, caramel and honey blondes look great; and if you have olive or dark skin with dark brown or vivid green eyes, coffee brown highlights or coppery red can add real intensity. If in doubt, ask your colorist – their experience will be invaluable in helping you decide.

Hair highlights are sections of hair lightened or coloured differently to the base colour to create dimension and contrast. Traditional highlights use foils for precise, uniform results, while techniques like balayage create a more natural, blended look.
