Different Blonding Techniques

---

Low-cost and low-maintenance, a 'mini-foil' is approximately 15 foils, mostly around your face and parting.

A partial highlight is more subtle and done to the sections of hair that make up the top half and top sides of your head. If you part your hair differently, however, your partial highlights wouldn't be visible.

Full highlights include lightened sections all over from the top of your head to the nape of your neck.

Specialised blonding is any type of bonding/lightening work needed to create a specific blonde look. This includes babylights, platinum card and air-touch techniques

Balayage is the technique of free-hand painting highlights onto the hair, creating a soft and natural gradation of lightness towards the ends. This creates a very natural, low maintenance, lived-in look.

Scalp bleaching is a salon treatment for people who want to have an overall solid blonde look. Used mostly for silver/platinum blondes or to pre-lighten the hair for creative vivid colour work.
