### Partial Head Highlights – soft, visible brightness in Brighton

Want a subtle lift without the commitment of a full head? **Partial Head Highlights** place light pieces through the parting, crown and sides to brighten where it shows most. We tailor the weave and placement to your haircut and skin tone, then finish with a **toner** for a clean, seamless result.

**What to expect**

-   **Consultation:** We discuss your goals, maintenance and colour history.
-   **Targeted foiling:** Fine weaves around the face, parting and crown; underneath layers are left natural for contrast.
-   **Tone & finish:** Lightener processes in foil, then we tone to cancel brass and perfect your shade.
-   **Timing:** Please allow **2–3 hours**, depending on starting colour, length and thickness.
-   **Location:** Friendly **Kemptown** salon with easy links from **Brighton Marina**, **North Laine** and **Hove**.

**Why choose partial**

-   **Lower maintenance** and **cost-effective** versus a full head.
-   **Natural, blended** result with movement and depth.
-   Ideal for **topping up** between full highlights or adding **face-framing** light.

**Care & maintenance**

-   **Top-ups:** Most clients return every **8–12 weeks**.
-   **Toner refresh:** Every **4–8 weeks** to keep your blonde clean and glossy.
-   **Home care:** Bond care, sulphate-free shampoo, colour-safe conditioner and heat protection help maintain strength and shine.

**Good to know** A **patch test** is required **48 hours** before colour services or if it has been more than six months.

    > I found this salon because I complimented Evie’s shiny hair when we were at a local cafe and was delighted to learn she is a hairdresser. I am very picky about cuts for my 2C-3A curly hair, and am always amazed at how her trims and layer placements make my hair spring back to life!!

## Frequently Asked Questions

How is a partial different from a half head?

Partial targets the most visible areas only; half head covers the top, crown and sides more extensively.

How long does it take?

Usually 2 - 3 hours, depending on hair length, thickness and desired lift.

Will I need a toner?

Yes. Toning refines the shade and neutralises brass for a seamless blend.

Is this good for first-time highlighters?

Absolutely. It is a subtle, low-commitment way to try lighter pieces.

How often should I maintain it?

Every 8–12 weeks works for most. Alternate with a toner or quick T-section to stretch visits.
