Someone may choose to receive a full highlight service if they want to add variation to their whole head. The simplest to understand is a full highlight, this means sections of hair all of your head will be covered with highlighted pieces. There are different placement options for highlights. This guide will help you decide which highlights are right for you so you can be prepared for your consultation at the salon. There are plenty of options when it comes to getting highlighted hair. Now you are feeling like you want a change and you want to spruce up your hair. Maybe you just got a new job, or broke up with your significant other, or maybe you have a first date coming up with someone you have had your eye on. The hair that is weaved out is then placed into a foil to process to ensure that the product being used stays contained and does not touch the base color.

This process entails having your stylist “weave” out tiny strips of hair creating a stripe, also known as a highlight in the hair. Highlights are pieces lighter than your base color, and lowlights are darker than your base color.

Highlights are added to the hair using lightener, color, and or direct hair dyes. Highlights and lowlights are multidimensional colored hair with streaks of a color that contrast with the base color (the solid color your hair is prior to highlighting).
