Highlights in Grand Blanc, MI
Highlights add brightness and depth exactly where you want it. Placed in foils with intention, they open up your face and build dimension — without the uniform, striped look that gives highlights a bad name.
From $175 · 120 min
Placed with intention
Foils give us control and saturation, which makes highlights the right call when you want crisp brightness — especially around the face — or a fuller, all-over lift. The art is in the placement: we weave and position every foil so the result reads natural and intentional, never chunky or patterned.
We custom-mix your lightener and toner to your base and undertones, so the brightness flatters your skin instead of fighting it.
Partial, full, or face-framing
A partial focuses on the top and sides — the pieces that frame your face and show most. A full highlight brightens all over for maximum lift. Face-framing money pieces add a brighter accent right where the light hits. Not sure which you want? That's what the consultation at the start of your appointment is for.
Highlights pair beautifully with a gloss to seal in tone and shine, and many clients alternate between highlights and balayage depending on the season.
Keeping highlights bright
Foiled highlights typically want a refresh every six to ten weeks depending on how much regrowth you're comfortable with and whether you've done a partial or full. A toning gloss between appointments keeps blondes from going brassy and extends the life of your color.
Highlights start at $175, with final pricing based on length, density, and whether you choose a partial or full application.
Good to know
Highlights questions, answered
- What's the difference between highlights and balayage?
- Highlights are applied in foils for crisp, saturated brightness and need more regular touch-ups. Balayage is hand-painted for a softer, lower-maintenance grow-out. Many clients use both depending on the look they want.
- How often do highlights need a touch-up?
- Usually every six to ten weeks, depending on your regrowth and whether you've had a partial or full. A gloss in between keeps the tone fresh and stretches the time between visits.
- Do highlights damage your hair?
- Any lightening is chemical, but we use bond-protecting products and assess your hair first. We'll always be honest if a target shade needs to be reached gradually to keep your hair healthy.
- How much are highlights at rooted.?
- Highlights start at $175. Partial versus full, length, and density all affect final pricing, which your stylist confirms before the appointment begins.
