Highlights

The simplest way of defining highlights, is relating them, to how they brighten-up your global color and are available altogether shapes, sizes, levels and tones making them suitable for all hair types. Bold highlights were more popular within the past as thick sections of hair would be lightened directly. Now, people prefer more natural-looking, thinner sections of strands to spotlight their hair.

As far as the technique goes, highlights are often achieved through a balayage technique, where color is applied on by hand or through the more traditional method of foils (or other separator) making it easy to tailor to your required outcome.

Lowlights

In lowlights, sections of hair that are darker than your base color, simply, it is the opposite of highlights. Lowlights are applied in deeper shades than the prevailing color, creating depth and dimension throughout the hair, something that straightforward highlights may lack. A bit like highlights, you may prefer to playfully arrange thinner or thicker color sections of hair, in order to achieve the design you are looking for. Since lowlights involve adding color deeper than your natural starting level, this system works best on lighter to medium shades creating thicker and fuller hair when placed strategically.

Babylights

Babylights are currently talk of the town, designed to make delicate, multi-tonal variation within the hair such as you were born with it. Babylights are definitely for those who are looking for a subtle change in their hair color. It is an ideal alternative to getting highlights, as babylights require less maintenance and achieve a more natural look than typical highlights.

The technique for recreating this look is to paint smaller/thinner pieces of hair with less separation in between each chunk, in order to seamlessly blend it in your base color. Since babylights look less harsh, the road of demarcation (the hair that has grown out since your last dye-job) looks less severe than regular highlights. The highlights should be fine round the hairline and natural parting, with a soft graduation of color that is lighter at the ends.

For Highlights

Highlights work for both subtle changes and a little extra, dramatic statements. Highlights are woven in sections of your hair, when you want to achieve lighter than your natural color.

When to Go For Highlights?

The perfect hour for seeking highlights is when you want to decorate your hair color or add dimension and movement to your base color.

For Lowlights

Lowlights are hints of color darker than your base color, which are woven into the hair. This coloring technique creates a perception of depth to the hair and adds contrast – perfect for people with finer hair who want their locks to seem thicker. It is also great to introduce a lowlight technique when hair becomes overly light and lacks dimension from regular highlighting.

When to Go For Lowlights?

Go for Lowlights, when you want to feature a perception of depth, contrast and texture to your color, or if your hair is feeling too light.

For Babylights

Babylights are micro-fine woven highlights placed around your hairline and over your parting. Babylights are cleverly placed using the minimum amount of hair needed to reinforce or contour your look. Therefore, for babylights, only a little amount of your hair is employed and there are only tiny separations in between foils. As they say, less is more!
