Hair Highlights
What to Expect at a Highlights Appointment
Highlights appointments at The District Salon & Barber start with a brief consultation — your colourist will assess your current hair colour, condition, and target result before choosing the foiling technique and lightener. Whether you are after partial highlights around the face or a full head of fine foils, the placement is discussed upfront so the result meets your expectation.
A highlights service typically runs 90 minutes to 2.5 hours depending on coverage and hair length. Highlights are part of the hair colouring services at The District Salon & Barber. For a softer, more blended result, compare highlights against the balayage service — your colourist can help you decide.
Common Questions
Highlights FAQs
What types of highlights does The District Salon & Barber offer?
The District Salon & Barber offers partial highlights, full highlights, chunky highlights, fine baby lights, and panel highlights. Partial highlights are placed around the face and top sections for a brightening effect. Full highlights cover the entire head for a more dramatic colour shift. Your colourist will recommend the right coverage based on your goal and starting colour.
How long do highlights take?
Partial highlights typically run 90 minutes to 2 hours. Full highlights — especially on longer or thicker hair — can run 2 to 2.5 hours. If you are also booking a cut in the same visit, call (807) 577-5621 so we can confirm the combined appointment length. Bringing your hair clean and dry to the appointment keeps the timing accurate.
How often should highlights be maintained?
Most highlight clients return every 8–12 weeks depending on how visible their root growth is and how consistent they want their colour to look. Fine baby lights tend to grow out more naturally and can stretch further. Call (807) 577-5621 or book online to schedule a refresh when your colour starts to look grown out.
