Brightening, dimensional foil color for a luminous finish
Highlights are applied with foils to lighten selected strands from root to end, creating brightness and depth throughout your hair. It's the perfect choice when you want consistent, all-over dimension and a luminous, polished result.
Our Oakland colorists place every foil with intention — framing your face, brightening your part, and blending tones so your color looks rich and natural. We use premium Goldwell color and Oribe care to keep your hair healthy through the lightening process.
If you love bright, uniform lift, highlights are ideal. If you prefer a softer, lower-maintenance grow-out, take a look at our balayage in Oakland page. We'll help you decide at your complimentary consultation.
