The Bronde Blvd Difference
What Are
Hair Highlights?
Hair highlights are a coloring technique where sections of hair are lightened to create contrast, dimension, and brightness against your natural base color. Unlike all-over color, highlights add movement and depth, making hair look richer, fuller, and more alive.
01
Any Hair Color, Any Texture
Highlights work beautifully on blonde, brunette, red, and even black hair. The technique simply adapts to what you're starting with.
02
Goldwell Color Exclusively
We use Goldwell professional color on every service, chosen for its precision, vibrancy, and long-lasting performance on treated hair.
03
Free Consultation Included
Not sure which technique is right for you? A complimentary consultation with your stylist will map out the exact look and price before we start.
Techniques
Types of Highlights
01
Step 01
Foil Highlights
Hair is sectioned and color is applied to individual strands, then wrapped in foil for a more intense, controlled lightening effect. Ideal for high contrast, bright blondes, and maximum dimension.
02
Step 02
Balayage Highlights
Color is hand-painted directly onto the hair in a sweeping motion — no foil, no cap. The result is a softer, more blended gradient that mimics the natural lightening of the sun.
03
Step 03
Ombré Highlights
A gradient technique where hair gradually lightens from root to tip. The transition can be subtle or dramatic depending on your preference — always seamless when done right.
04
Step 04
Babylights
Ultra-fine highlights applied in tiny sections throughout the hair, mimicking the way children's hair catches the light. The most natural-looking result — beautifully subtle and incredibly dimensional.
Investment
How Much Do
Highlights Cost?
Highlight pricing at Bronde Blvd depends on the technique, your hair's length and thickness, and the number of highlights you're going for. A partial highlight and a full foil are very different appointments and priced accordingly.
Free consultation included. Your stylist will walk you through a personalized quote before any color touches your hair. No surprises, ever.
We use Goldwell color exclusively, a professional-grade line known for its precision, longevity, and brilliant results on all hair types.
Longevity
How Long Do
They Last?
Highlights typically last 6 to 8 weeks before the grow-out becomes noticeable. Hair health, color maintenance, and the technique used all affect how long your color stays vibrant.
Appointment time: Partial highlights run approximately 2 hours. A full highlight treatment can take 2 to 3 hours depending on hair length and density.
Balayage-style highlights grow out more gracefully than foil, if low maintenance is a priority, your stylist can recommend the right technique for your lifestyle.
Extension Care
How to Maintain
Your Highlights
🧴
Use Color-Safe Shampoo
Sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo and conditioner protect highlighted hair from fading and dryness. Avoid anything with harsh detergents; they strip color faster than anything else.
🌡️
Limit Heat Styling
High heat causes highlighted strands to become dry and brittle and speeds up color fading. Always use a heat protectant, and keep tools at a lower setting whenever possible.
💆
Protect Against UV
Sun exposure is one of the biggest causes of highlight fading. Use a leave-in conditioner with UV protection, or wear a hat during prolonged time outdoors.
📅
Schedule Regular Touch-Ups
Plan for touch-up appointments every 6 to 8 weeks to keep your highlights looking fresh. Your stylist will advise on the right frequency based on your technique and grow-out preference.
🏊
Avoid Chlorine & Salt Water
Both chlorine and salt water cause highlighted hair to become brassy and faded. Apply a leave-in conditioner before swimming, or wear a cap to protect your color.
💧
Use a Weekly Hair Mask
Highlighted hair is more prone to dryness. A deep conditioning mask once a week keeps strands moisturized, reduces breakage, and helps color stay vibrant for longer.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Partial highlights focus on specific sections, usually around the face, crown, or top layer of hair. Full highlights cover the entire head from root to tip for maximum brightness and dimension. Partial highlights are quicker and more affordable; full highlights create a more dramatic, all-over effect.
It depends on your natural color, the result you want, and how much maintenance you\'re willing to commit to. Foil highlights give the most precision and brightness. Balayage and babylights grow out more naturally and require fewer touch-ups. Your stylist will walk you through the best option during your complimentary consultation.
In most cases, yes, but the approach depends on your hair\'s current condition and how it was previously colored. We always assess hair health before any color service and will be upfront with you about what\'s achievable in a single session versus what requires a gradual approach.
Use a purple or blue toning shampoo once or twice a week to neutralize warm tones between appointments. Avoid hard water, sun exposure, and over-washing, which all contribute to brassiness. Regular toning gloss treatments at the salon also make a significant difference in keeping your tone cool and vibrant.
Pricing is based on your hair\'s length, thickness, the technique used, and the scope of coverage, partial or full. Because every head of hair is different, we always do a complimentary consultation first so your stylist can give you an accurate quote before any work begins.
