This focused service brightens the top and sides of your hair — the areas most visible day-to-day — helping you maintain a polished look with less time in the chair. As with all our colour services, your stylist will begin with a patch test at least 48 hours beforehand to ensure your skin is comfortable with the colour products we use. At your appointment, we’ll take time for a one-to-one consultation. This allows us to understand the look you’d like to achieve and what level of upkeep suits your lifestyle. Whether you're looking to maintain soft, natural lift or prefer a brighter finish around the parting and hairline, we’ll tailor your t-section highlights to you. We’ll then select the most flattering shades based on your skin tone, natural base, and existing colour. Foils are carefully placed through the parting and front sections to refresh brightness and blend regrowth, creating a seamless and natural result. A typical t-section highlight appointment takes around 1 and a half hours, depending on your hair. In some cases, we may apply a toner to refine the overall tone or add softness and shine — especially useful if you're blending previous colour or want to neutralise any unwanted warmth. To keep your colour looking its best, most clients return every 6–8 weeks for maintenance. Between visits, we recommend Davines hair care — a luxurious, professional range that supports colour vibrancy, strength, and condition. T-section highlights are an excellent way to keep your blonde or multi-tonal colour fresh and luminous — without committing to a full head every time.
