Frequently Asked Questions

Highlights (including Full Head Foils) involve wrapping hair in foil to create brightness from the root down for a uniform, high-impact result. Balayage is a freehand painting technique for a rooted, lived-in look. If you want maximum brightness or Grey Blending, foils are usually the better choice as they offer more lift and precision close to the scalp.

To avoid a harsh line, we recommend booking T-Section Highlights WC1 (covering the parting and hairline) 6–8 weeks after your main appointment. This keeps your Scandi Hairline and roots fresh without the time or cost commitment of a full service. We also recommend a Gloss/Toner service in between appointments to neutralize any brassiness.

Babylights are ultra-fine, micro-woven highlights that mimic the way the sun lightens a child’s hair. Because the sections are so small, they blend seamlessly with your natural colour, offering incredibly natural, soft regrowth compared to traditional chunky foils. This is ideal for clients seeking Natural Blonde Results.

Yes. We call this Face Framing Highlights. It involves lightening the strands immediately around your face to brighten your complexion. This is a great way to lift your look, even if you stick to Caramel Highlights on Dark Hair for the rest of your head.

Yes. With so many techniques available—from Babylights and AirTouch to classic Woven Highlights—it can be hard to know what to book.
