Feeling nervous before your first Face Frame Highlight is completely normal. We’ve worked with clients who’ve shared how they felt at ease right from the start with our warm and welcoming environment. You’ll embark on a beautiful journey of highlighting sections around your face, enhancing your features and brightness.

How to Prepare for Your Highlight Appointment

Before your appointment, consider the look you want to achieve. Think about which shades enhance your complexion best. It’s also helpful to avoid hair products or oils on your hair the day of your appointment. When you arrive, have a clear idea of what you want to discuss with your specialist, whether that’s specific colors or any concerns you might have. This helps set the tone for a collaborative experience.

What Happens During Your Session

When you arrive, we’ll start with a consultation to chat about your vision and desired outcome for your highlights. Then, we’ll section your hair and apply the lightener strategically around your face. Many of our first-time clients are surprised by how soothing the process is, often commenting on the care we take to make them feel comfortable. You might hear, "I was nervous, but the staff made everything easy and enjoyable" from others just like you. After applying the highlights, we typically let it process for a bit while you relax.

After Your Highlight: Care and Maintenance

Immediately afterward, you may notice your hair feels light and looks radiant. To maintain those fresh highlights, we recommend using color-safe shampoos and conditioners. You’ll want to plan for a touch-up every 6-8 weeks to keep the look vibrant. Many clients leave us thrilled with their new look and share that they receive compliments for weeks. After your visit, one said, "I kept looking in the mirror, absolutely in love with my lightened features!"
