Highlights

Highlights add brightness, depth and movement, and they are one of the best ways to blend grey hair naturally. At our Tilbury salon we offer everything from a quick parting refresh to full head foils on long hair, each one toned and finished so you see the full result before you leave.

Our highlight specialists

Hannah, Nicole and Danielle all count highlights among their specialities. They will help you choose the right tone, from warm honey to cool beige, and the right thickness, from fine and subtle to bolder contrast.

Tip: a weekly purple shampoo keeps highlights bright and stops brassiness.

A skin test is usually needed 48 hours before your first colour with us. We welcome clients from Tilbury, Grays, Stanford-le-Hope and across Thurrock. See all our hair colouring services.
