What Are Highlights?

Highlights are strands of lighter color added to your base hair color, designed to add dimension and movement to your hairstyle. At Kaleido Hair, we offer a variety of highlighting techniques:

  • Foil Highlights: Traditional highlights that involve wrapping sections of hair in foil for precision lightening.
  • Babylights: Very fine, subtle highlights that mimic the natural highlights of a child's hair.
  • Balayage: A freehand technique for a more natural, sun-kissed look.

Each technique can significantly enhance your appearance, providing a range of styles from subtle refinement to bold, new looks.


Why People Choose Highlights

Highlights are not just about changing your look; they’re about enhancing your natural beauty. Clients choose highlights for several reasons:
  • Visual Enhancement: Highlights can make hair appear more voluminous and dynamic.
  • Color Experimentation: They provide a non-committal way to experiment with hair color that can be adjusted to reflect seasonal trends or personal style changes.
  • Customization: Highlights can be tailored specifically to each client, making each style unique and perfectly suited to individual tastes.
  • Low Maintenance: Techniques like balayage require less frequent touch-ups than full-head color changes, appealing to those with a busy lifestyle.


Types of Highlights Offered at Kaleido Hair

Kaleido Hair stands out as a premier highlights salon in Houston and Rosenberg, offering expertly applied highlights tailored to your style. Whether you’re looking for a subtle lift or a bold new look, our salon is equipped to provide:

  • Foil Highlights for precise, traditional highlighting.
  • Babylights for a dimensional, blended appearance.
  • Balayage for a more natural, low-maintenance style.

Shelby was my stylist and she was truly fantastic! I arrived with truly troubled hair that desperately needed a cut and color. Not only did she give me the best haircut and coloring I’ve ever received, but she truly saved the integrity of my hair. I could not be happier with how my hair looks and feels. Thank you so much for you expertise, Shelby! I would definitely recommend booking your hair appointment with this salon!

Highly recommend seeing Adrianna! From the start she really invests in figuring out the best plan/techniques for your hair inspo, and so far she’s done a great job with my hair throughout our sessions for color correction. She’s super super knowledgeable, genuine and talented in hair beyond coloring. She explains in detail about her recommendations while considering your ideas as well to get you to your hair goal. Our first consultation she took a lot of time and went out of her way to figure out a plan for my hair, and I am excited to continue working with her! :)

1. How do I know which type of highlights are right for me?

Choosing the right type of highlight depends on your desired outcome, hair type, and maintenance preferences. During your consultation at Kaleido Hair, our experts will help you select the perfect method, whether it's traditional foil highlights for precise coloring, balayage for a more natural look, or color blocking highlights for a bold statement.

The frequency of touch-ups can vary depending on the highlighting technique used and your natural hair growth. Typically, traditional foil highlights might need a touch-up every 6 to 8 weeks, while balayage can last up to 12 weeks or longer. We'll provide personalized advice based on your specific situation.

2. How often should I get my highlights touched up?

3. Can highlights damage my hair?

When done professionally, highlighting your hair should not result in damage. At Kaleido Hair, we use high-quality products and techniques to minimize any potential harm, ensuring your hair remains healthy and vibrant.

4. What should I do to prepare for my highlighting appointment?

To prepare for your appointment, it's best to come with your hair clean, in its natural state, avoiding styling products if possible. This allows the colorist to see your true hair color and texture, aiding in the color selection process. Also, having a few pictures of the desired look can help communicate your expectations clearly.

5. Are there specific hair care products I should use after getting highlights?

Yes, to maintain the vibrancy and health of your highlighted hair, we recommend using sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners specifically formulated for color-treated hair. Additionally, using a deep conditioning treatment weekly can help keep your hair hydrated and reduce fading. Our stylists at Kaleido Hair can recommend products tailored to your hair type and color.
