Highlights and babylights in Lisbon
Highlights add lighter strands for contrast. Babylights are finer and closer together, closer to hair that has lightened in the sun. Both are placed after a consultation on skin tone, the natural base and how much contrast you actually want. The work includes a toner when the lifted hair needs a tone, and bond care when the hair has been coloured before. Done this way, the goal is dimension with the hair still feeling intact a month later.
Highlights usually need a refresh in 8 to 12 weeks, depending on how fast the hair grows and how strong the contrast is. Previously coloured hair can be highlighted, but only after the current colour and the condition are assessed. Sometimes the honest plan is a correction or a softer contrast, not another full lift. Grey hair that you want blended rather than covered is often a colouring appointment, not a highlight appointment. That is covered on the colour page. Bring a photo of the contrast you want. The consultation will say if the hair should be conditioned before it is lightened again, or if a softer placement is the better plan. Babylights take longer than a few bold slices because each section is finer. The toner, when it is needed, is part of the same visit. Grey coverage that paints the root is booked as colour, not as this service.
The process
- Consultation on the base, previous colour and the amount of contrast.
- Fine or broader sections, placed where the light should sit.
- Lift, then a toner if the raw lift is too warm or too stark.
- A conditioning finish and advice for colour-safe washing at home.
Who it suits
It suits people who want lightness and dimension without changing every strand to one shade. Babylights suit a quieter result. Broader highlights suit a clearer contrast. Very damaged hair should be strengthened before another lift.
Aftercare
Wash with colour-safe products and use heat protection. A gloss between full highlight appointments keeps the tone even. Expect a refresh around 8 to 12 weeks if you want the contrast to stay as it was on day one.
Price
Highlights start at €100 for short hair, €120 for medium and €140 for long. The final figure depends on how much of the head is worked and whether a correction is needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between highlights and babylights?
Highlights create more noticeable contrast and dimension, while babylights are ultra-fine, subtle highlights that mimic natural sun-kissed hair. Babylights are placed closer together and are much thinner for a more natural effect.
How long do highlights last?
Highlights typically last 8-12 weeks before needing a touch-up, depending on your hair growth rate and the contrast between your natural color and highlights. Regular maintenance helps keep them looking fresh.
Will highlights damage my hair?
When done professionally with proper techniques and quality products, highlights cause minimal damage. We use protective treatments and customize the process to your hair's condition and needs.
Can I get highlights on previously colored hair?
Yes, but it requires careful assessment and potentially color correction. We'll evaluate your current color and hair condition during consultation to determine the best approach for beautiful, healthy results.
How do you choose the right highlight color for me?
We consider your skin tone, eye color, natural hair color, and personal style preferences. We use color theory to select shades that complement your features and enhance your natural beauty.
Can I style my hair normally after getting highlights?
Yes, you can style your hair as usual after highlights. We recommend using color-safe products and heat protectants to maintain the vibrancy and health of your highlighted hair.
