It is the right choice when you want noticeable dimension, softer regrowth, and colour that looks polished in daylight as well as indoors. ## 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.

I will definitely be back, highly recommended for colour. Also he very patient and such a Kind and really Caring person. He’s very proud of his work and won’t let you down. A true perfectionist, thank you Carlos. ❤️ - S Sehar > I paid £340 for a full head highlights, cut and blow dry service after clearly explaining that I wanted to feel noticeably blonder, brighter, and as light as possible while keeping the tone neutral/ leaning towards golden. I also specifically mentioned that I disliked how dark my roots/top area felt and wanted to minimise the darker tones. The cut itself is nice and the colour is technically blended, however the overall result feels far darker than what was discussed during the consultation. I showed previous photos of my hair colour and also brought along hair extensions I had previously been professionally colour matched to, clearly explaining what I wanted and what I wanted to avoid. Much of the blonde through my mids and ends was already present before the appointment, and I left still feeling predominantly brunette through the top and crown rather than noticeably blonde overall. The highlights through the parting and crown also felt too sparse to create the brighter blonde effect I had specifically asked for. When I raised this at the end of the appointment, I was told that I had let my hair grow out too much and would need to return in 2 months for further highlights to counteract the darkness. Unfortunately, this was not something that was communicated during the consultation before proceeding with a £340 service. I was also disappointed with the finish of the blow dry. While the shape and layers were nice, the overall styling lacked the polished, glossy finish I would expect from a premium salon appointment at this price point, with visible frizz and dryness still present through the top and crown. The attached photos were taken approximately 10 minutes after the appointment, after a short 5-minute walk home in sunny weather conditions. Please also note that the blow dry and cut portion of the service alone cost over £100. Overall, this did not align with the brighter blonde transformation I had asked for and expected. If achieving that result was not possible in one appointment, I would have appreciated that being communicated clearly at the beginning so I could either adjust expectations, choose a different service, or seek a second opinion elsewhere. Given the level of detail provided during the consultation and the price point of the service, I left feeling extremely disappointed with the overall outcome, particularly as this appointment was booked ahead of an important occasion for me. - A Aianna Nely Lopez > 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.

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.
