Full Head Highlights are a timeless colour technique designed to create all-over brightness, depth, and dimension. By placing fine weaves of colour throughout the entire head, this service offers a versatile way to lighten your look—whether you want a subtle glow or a more defined contrast. The result is soft, blended colour that looks polished and natural from every angle.
Who is this service for?
Full Head Highlights are ideal for women who want consistent brightness from root to tip. Whether you're looking to enhance your natural base, soften grey regrowth, or shift to a lighter tone, this service offers a flattering and tailored finish.
It’s a popular choice for clients who prefer a more uniform colour than balayage or half-head options, particularly those with longer or thicker hair who want even lightness throughout.
More information
How long does it take?
Expect your appointment to last between 3 to 4.5 hours. This includes consultation, application of foils throughout the entire head, processing, a bespoke toner, a deep conditioning treatment, and a professional blow-dry.
What’s the process?
Your stylist will begin with a consultation to determine your goals and recommend the most flattering highlight pattern for your hair. Fine sections of hair are then carefully placed in foils and lightened. After developing, we may recommend an optional toner to be applied to refine the tone and ensure a beautifully blended result. A nourishing treatment follows to maintain strength and shine before a polished blow-dry finish.
How often should I book?
Most clients return every 8 to 10 weeks for maintenance. Thanks to the seamless blend of fine highlights, regrowth is soft and flattering. Toner refreshes in between can help maintain brightness and tone.
At The Vintage Avenue, we use premium colour and care products to protect the condition of your hair while delivering refined, luminous results that suit your lifestyle and style preferences.

Cannot recommend enough. So much care and attention throughout. At the consultation Sydney made sure she completely understood what I liked and honestly advised what would suit me to ensure I would be happy with the result. She exceeded my expectations with the end result, I’m so happy with my hair, beautifully blended and suits my colouring. Was so well looked after during my colour and cut was so pampering. Also advised on products to help my hair for aftercare. Thank you so much

Can’t recommend The Vintage Avenue highly enough! Everyone there is SO welcoming and lovely. Want to especially mention Jayne and Chloe who were so fab to chat to and did the best job of my hair - have never been so pleased with the colour after years of trying to achieve a certain blonde! They both took their time to really understand what I wanted and looking forward to my next appointment 😊

Just visited the lovely team at Vintage Avenue. The very talented Chloe has been blending my greys — not hiding them and I’ve walked out with the prettiest silver hair. I absolutely LOVE it! 😍

Chloe has been my colourist for years, and I never knew it was possible to have the perfect hair experience every single time! She understands not just my hair, but my lifestyle too. I always leave with a smile and a bounce in my step. ☺️
