Q: How can I protect my hair after colouring? A: Post-colouring, we recommend using products specifically designed for colour-treated hair like those from the Olaplex and Moroccan Oil ranges, which help lock in colour and prevent fading.

Q: What is the difference between balayage and highlights? A: Balayage and highlights are both colouring techniques used to create a lightened effect in your hair, but they differ in application and the final look they achieve.

Highlights are typically applied with foils to create a uniform and consistent lightening effect from the root to the ends of your hair. This technique can give a more pronounced, structured, and evenly spaced colour that usually requires more frequent touch-ups as your hair grows out, due to the noticeable regrowth line.

Balayage, a French word meaning 'to sweep,' is a freehand painting technique on the surface of the hair. This method creates a soft and natural gradation of lightness towards the ends, with less noticeable regrowth lines. Balayage gives a more sun-kissed, natural-looking hair colour, with softer, less noticeable regrowth lines. The principal idea being less is more when creating soft, natural looks.

Q: What is the difference between full colour and highlights? A: Choosing between full colour and highlights can dramatically change your look, and understanding the difference is key to achieving your desired hair style.

Full Colour: Full colour, also known as a single-process colour, involves applying one colour to all of your hair, from roots to ends. This technique can cover grays, enhance your natural colour, or completely change the colour of your hair. It creates a uniform and consistent shade across your entire head, making a bold statement and giving a more solid and block colour finish. Full colour usually requires upkeep every 4-6 weeks to maintain the desired shade and cover new growth.

Highlights: Highlights involve lightening sections of your hair to add texture, depth, and dimension. The colour is applied using various techniques such as foiling or balayage, focusing on specific areas rather than all over. Highlights are meant to mimic the multi-dimensional colour seen in natural hair and can be as subtle or as bold as you prefer. They're an excellent choice for someone looking to refresh their look without committing to a single all-over colour change. Maintenance for highlights can vary, typically from 6-12 weeks, depending on the contrast between the highlights and the natural hair colour.

For anyone interested in exploring these colouring options or seeking a change, consider scheduling a consultation with our talented stylist at Iaam Salon. We're here to help you understand which service is best suited to your hair goals and lifestyle.
