Subtle brightness where it counts.
Our Hairline Highlights service is a precise, expertly placed lightening treatment designed to softly frame the face and freshen your overall colour between full or half-head appointments. It’s a small detail — but one that makes a noticeable difference.

What’s Included

Hairline highlights involve the careful placement of fine foils or hand-painted colour around the hairline — typically at the front, parting, and temple areas. This technique brightens the face, softens regrowth, and adds a touch of lightness that lifts your overall look without the need for a full highlight session.

Your appointment begins with a short consultation to assess your current colour, desired tone, and the placement that will best suit your features and styling habits. We then apply your highlights using premium professional lighteners, followed by a gloss or toner to perfect the tone and finish. The result is natural, polished, and flattering — ideal for refreshing your colour between larger services.

Who It’s For

Hairline highlights are perfect for clients who:

  • Are maintaining full or half-head highlights and want to freshen up between appointments
  • Prefer a low-maintenance, soft brightening effect
  • Want to frame the face without altering the rest of their hair
  • Are growing out colour but want to avoid a harsh regrowth line

This service suits all hair colours and types — and can be tailored for both subtle enhancement and higher contrast, depending on your style.

Duration & Appointment Timing

This express colour service typically takes 45 to 60 minutes and can be booked alone or alongside a blow-dry or gloss treatment. It’s quick, precise, and ideal for mid-week touch-ups or upcoming events where you want to feel groomed and confident.

How Often Should You Book?

Hairline highlights can be maintained every 4 to 6 weeks, depending on your regrowth pattern and how often you colour your full head. Many clients alternate this service between full or half-head appointments to maintain brightness with less time in the chair.

For discreet, expert colour maintenance from experienced hairdressers London, book your hairline highlights at Simon Warwick Salons — where even the smallest detail is handled with care and precision.

    Carlos did an amazing job with my hair color! I got baby highlights, and the result is absolutely top quality—so natural, soft, and beautifully blended. He really knows what he’s doing and pays close attention to detail. I’m so happy with how it turned out. Highly recommend Carlos if you’re looking for someone truly talented and professional!

Frequently Asked Questions

What are hairline highlights?
They are fine foils placed along the hairline and parting to add soft brightness where it shows most. This blends regrowth, lifts the complexion and refreshes colour without a full head service.
Will hairline highlights cover grey hair?
They soften and diffuse grey at the hairline rather than fully covering it. For complete coverage, pair with a root tint or discuss a blended approach during your consultation.
How long does the service take and is a blow-dry included?
Allow about 60 minutes for the colour. We dry the hair enough to check tone and placement. Book a separate blow-dry or haircut if you would like a finished style.
How often should I have hairline highlights?
Most clients return every 6 to 8 weeks, or midway between full colour appointments. Regrowth at the hairline is softer than a full head, so the look stays natural for longer.
Will it work on dark or curly hair?
Yes. Placement and tone are tailored to your base colour, curl pattern and skin tone to keep the result subtle and flattering. On very dark hair, expect a refined, sun-kissed shift rather than high contrast.
