Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Partial Highlights.

Partial Highlights focus on select sections—often around the face or crown—rather than coloring all hair. This creates dimension with fewer foils, less processing, and a softer, more natural result. Ideal for subtle change or enhancing features without a full color overhaul.

Appointments usually range from 60 to 90 minutes depending on hair length, density, and placement complexity. Consultations at the start let your stylist plan timing. Additional services like toning or a blowout will increase total time.

When applied by experienced stylists using quality products, Partial Highlights have minimal damage compared to full lightening. Because fewer sections are processed, exposure is reduced. We also use bond-repair treatments and tailored developer strengths to protect hair integrity.

Use color-safe, sulfate-free shampoos and nourishing conditioners, and limit hot styling. Apply weekly deep-conditioning or bond-building masks and use UV-safe products to prevent fading. Schedule touch-ups every six to ten weeks or as advised by your stylist for optimal results.

Yes — with proper assessment. Dark or previously colored hair can receive partial lightening, though results may vary. Your stylist will evaluate base color and hair health, choosing appropriate lift methods and toner to achieve a blended, flattering outcome while minimizing processing.

Pricing depends on hair length, density, and stylist level. Partial Highlights at Giorgio Hair Salon typically range from $65 to $150. Your consultation provides an exact quote based on desired placement, color complexity, and any add-on services like toner or treatments.
