Staying up to date with the latest hair trends and techniques is crucial to attract and retain clients. One of the most sought-after looks in recent years is face-framing highlights. These strategically placed, lighter strands around the face can instantly brighten and enhance a client’s features.
In the blog post, we will take you through the step-by-step process of achieving stunning face-framing highlights, ensuring your clients leave your salon feeling radiant and confident.
Face-framing highlights refer to the technique of adding lighter strands of hair around the face to enhance the client’s features and create a more flattering and dimensional look. These highlights are strategically placed to frame the face, drawing attention to specific areas and creating a brightening effect.
The highlights can be created using various coloring techniques, such as foiling, balayage, or babylights. The colorist typically selects a shade or shades that are lighter than the client’s natural hair color to create contrast and add depth. The chosen shades should complement the client’s skin tone and blend seamlessly with their base color for a natural-looking result.
Face-framing highlights are a versatile and transformative technique that can suit any hair type, length, or color. They are an excellent way to add depth, dimension, and movement to a hairstyle. Keep reading for expert tips & tricks!
