Full Head Highlights are designed to lighten and brighten your hair all over with clean, even placement and a refined, natural-looking finish. It is the right choice when you want noticeable dimension, softer regrowth, and colour that looks polished in daylight as well as indoors.

More information

What a Full Head Highlights appointment includes

Full Head Highlights work through the whole head, not just the top layers, so the result looks consistent whether your hair is worn down, tucked behind the ears, or styled up.

  • A colour consultation to agree your target tone, how bright you want to go, and how your highlights should sit against your base colour.
  • Precise sectioning and foiling throughout the head for even lift and balanced brightness.
  • Considered placement around the hairline and parting for a softer, more flattering frame.
  • Lightening development monitored so the lift stays controlled and the hair remains in good condition.
  • A toner or gloss to refine warmth, add shine, and create a more seamless blend from roots to ends.
  • Cleanse and finish so you can see the placement, tone, and movement of the highlights.

Full Head Highlights for brightening, grey blending, and a softer grow-out

This service suits you if you want your colour to read lighter through the lengths, not just on the surface. It is also a strong option when you are blending scattered greys, reducing contrast at the root, or moving from a darker base to a more dimensional blonde over a series of appointments. If you prefer an elegant result rather than obvious striping, ask for finer weaves and a softer tonal finish.

How long Full Head Highlights take and what affects timing

Allow around three hours, depending on hair length and thickness, your starting colour, and how light you want the final result. More brightness usually means more foils, careful saturation, and extra time for toning to land on a precise shade. If you are refreshing previously highlighted hair, timing may also include balancing the mid-lengths and ends.

Keeping Full Head Highlights looking refined between appointments

To maintain a polished tone, use colour-safe shampoo and conditioner and minimise excessive heat. A toner refresh or gloss between full highlight appointments can keep brassiness under control and restore shine, especially in brighter blondes. Most clients book a maintenance plan based on regrowth speed and how bright the highlight is through the hairline and parting.

    Ive just had my first visit to this Salon , and could not be happier with my Colour and keratin treatment. I had a full head of highlights of creamy blonde and had it done very naturally which looks amazing. I then has a keratin treatment to get rid off my frizz and slight curl at my crown area which has worked wonders. Thank you very much Carlos for your hospitality and patience with my hair. I’m truly grateful and blessed to have had you doing my colour and keratin. I couldn’t be more grateful with your beautiful work ❤️

    Carlos was very friendly and welcoming. He listened to what I wanted and made me feel even more comfortable by responding with recommendations of what he would suit me and what would be best to maintain for the condition of my hair and the long term health benefits. The Colour has been done beautifully and I’ve never had so many compliments on my Highlights in the last 3 weeks. Carlos is very good at his craft and he even washed my hair which I can only describe as mesmerizing and completely amazing. Thank you Carlos. Truly Professional and very good at your craft. Thankyou 💫

Frequently Asked Questions

How are Full Head Highlights different from half head highlights?
Full Head Highlights are placed throughout the entire head, including underneath sections, for a more consistent overall lift. Half head highlights focus mainly on the top and sides, which can look lighter on the surface but darker underneath.
Will Full Head Highlights cover my greys?
Highlights can blend greys by breaking up the base colour and reducing harsh contrast at the roots. If you need stronger coverage in specific areas, a root colour or strategic lowlights may be recommended alongside highlights.
Do I need a toner after Full Head Highlights?
In most cases, yes. A toner refines the shade after lightening, controls warmth, and improves shine so the blonde looks intentional rather than just lighter.
How often should I book Full Head Highlights?
Many clients refresh Full Head Highlights every 8–12 weeks, depending on regrowth and how bright the colour is at the hairline and parting. A gloss or toner refresh between appointments can help keep the tone looking clean.
Can Full Head Highlights be done on previously coloured hair?
Often, yes, but it depends on what is already on the hair and how light you want to go. Your colourist will assess the condition, previous colour history, and whether a staged approach is safer for an even result.
