Highlights & Foils
Full head, half head & T-sections
Classic foil highlights give you bright, uniform lightness through the hair — the best way to add dimension, cover grey tones or lift your base colour. Our colourists at Basekamp offer full head, half head and T-section options.
Foil highlights remain one of the most reliable and versatile colour services. Whether you want all-over lift, a bright frame around the face, or subtle dimension through your mid-lengths, foils give a predictable, crisp result. Our freelance colourists will consult with you on placement (full head, half head, T-section, face-framing) and tone to match your natural colour or aesthetic goals.

Common questions.
What's the difference between full head and half head?
Full head covers the whole head. Half head covers the top layers plus around the face. T-section covers just the parting and hairline.
How often should I get highlights?
Every 6-10 weeks depending on how fast your roots grow and how bright you like to keep them.
