Bright, dimensional color designed to enhance your natural hair
Highlight Services
Dimension That Brings Your Hair to Life
Highlights add depth, brightness, and movement without completely changing your base color.
Highlights are designed to break up solid color and create contrast in a way that feels natural and balanced. Depending on how they’re placed, they can be soft and subtle or more noticeable and bold.
Heather customizes every highlight service based on your hair, your natural base, and how much brightness you want. The goal is not just to lighten your hair, but to create a result that feels cohesive and flattering.
After 22+ years of experience, she understands how to place highlights in a way that enhances your features and works with your everyday style.

AFTERCARE
Keeping Your Highlights Looking New
Highlights tend to stay looking good longer than full color, but how they age depends on how you care for them. Over time, tone can shift, brightness can fade, and dryness can show up if your hair isn’t getting the right support. Keeping your highlights looking fresh is less about constant appointments and more about small, consistent habits at home. Using the right shampoo, managing heat, and coming in for the occasional toner or refresh makes a noticeable difference in how your color holds up. Heather will tailor recommendations based on your specific highlight style so you’re not over-maintaining or guessing what your hair needs.
Purple or Toning Shampoo
Helps neutralize unwanted yellow or brassy tones.
Moisture & Repair
Lightened hair needs extra hydration to stay soft and healthy.
Heat Protection
Protect your hair from heat damage to preserve brightness.
Maintenance Appointments
Toning and refresh appointments help keep your highlights looking polished.
Will Highlights Damage My Hair?
When done properly, highlights can be a safe and manageable way to lighten your hair.
Highlights involve lightening sections of your hair, which means it’s important to approach the process carefully. Heather takes your hair’s condition into account before starting and uses techniques that minimize unnecessary stress on your hair.
In some cases, achieving your desired brightness may take more than one session. The goal is always to get you there while keeping your hair healthy.
