Highlighting on a Budget

In this tough economy we are all looking for ways to keep us looking our best while making our dollars stretch further than ever.  Here are some great ideas that can help to extend the time between your highlighting visits to your stylist.

A Superfine Weave: The thicker and chunkier your highlights are the more obvious your regrowth will be.  Spending a little longer in the chair getting a superfine weave that leaves you looking naturally sun kissed is worth it because the  regrowth looks more natural.  For extra time between visits ask your stylist not to put each foil directly on the scalp, staggering the line a bit can give you even more time between visits and allows for an even more natural look growing out.

Gorgeous Face Framing Highlights: Lightening your hair just around the face keeps your highlights looking subtle and natural.   This can extend your color budget significantly as it can often be done in 10 foils or less.

Tone on Tone / Dimensional Color: Not straying drastically from your natural color and just adding some subtle  dimension to enhance your color is a great idea if you are looking for the best value for your dollar.  When added to either of the above options you can often go 4 months between color touch ups!
