What's included in this service?

This service includes mini partial highlights (Mohawk section plus hairline accents) combined with a base color application. The color is applied to the hair between the highlight foils, giving you both highlights and a new base color.

How long does this service take?

Tint with mini partial typically takes 2-2.5 hours, making it faster than full highlight combinations while still giving you a complete color transformation.

How often should I get this service?

Most clients schedule this service every 8-10 weeks. You may need root touch-ups (tint retouch) in between to maintain your color, and can add mini partial highlights as needed.

What's the difference between this and tint with partial highlights?

This service uses mini partial highlights (smaller area, just Mohawk section) while tint with partial highlights covers a larger area (ear to ear, fringe to crown). Mini partial is more subtle and cost-effective.

Can I upgrade to more highlights later?

Absolutely! Many clients start with tint and mini partial, then later upgrade to partial or full highlights. We can easily expand your highlights during your next appointment.

Will the highlights be noticeable?

Yes, but in a subtle way. The mini partial highlights add dimension and brightness, especially around your face and the top of your head where they're most visible, while your new base color provides the foundation.

Highlight Care Tips

How to prepare for your appointment and protect your highlights at home

Before Your Appointment

Arrive with Clean, Dry Hair

Come to your appointment with clean hair and no heavy styling products. Product build-up can interfere with even lightener application.

Bring Inspiration Photos

Save photos of highlight styles you love—and ones you don't. This helps us understand the exact look you're after, from placement to tone.

Share Your Color History

Let us know about any previous highlights, box color, or chemical treatments. This helps us choose the safest, most effective approach for your hair.

Plan Enough Time

Highlight services range from about 1.5 hours (mini-partial) to 3+ hours (balayage or full highlights). Schedule your day accordingly so you're not rushed.

After Your Appointment

Wait 24–48 Hours Before Washing

Give your toner and lightener time to fully settle. Your first wash can lift freshly deposited tone, so waiting helps the color last longer.

Use Color-Safe, Sulfate-Free Shampoo

Sulfate-free shampoos are gentler on highlighted hair and help preserve your tone between appointments. We'll recommend options that work for your specific highlights.

Use Purple or Blue Shampoo as Needed

For blonde or lightened highlights, a purple or blue shampoo used once a week helps neutralize brassiness and keep your tone fresh.

Protect from Heat and UV

Use a heat protectant before hot tools and consider a UV-protecting hair product for time in the Colorado sun, which can fade highlights over time.

Schedule Regular Touch-Ups

Foil highlights typically need refreshing every 8–10 weeks. Balayage can go 12–16 weeks. We'll help you set a schedule that keeps your look fresh.
