foil highlights how to in LATHROP.You can place either light or dark colors in the hair, depending on what your client wants.
Highlights involve coloring certain strands of the hair lighter than the natural color to add the illusions of depth.
Lowlights involve coloring some of the strands darker than the natural color.
There are many possibilities to which you can create a beautiful look and style.
The most used techniques are the cap, foil and baliage or freeforming techniques.
The cap technique involves pulling dry stands of hair through a perforated cap using a thin metal hook.
The amount of hair that you pull through will determine on how many highlights or lowlights your client want to achieve.
When you pull a large amount of hair through you will achieve a dramatic effect, but when you only pull a small amount through you will get only a subtle look.
The foil technique involves coloring only certain strands of hair.
This can be achieved by either slicing or weaving the sections of hair you want highlighted.
Once you have picked which way your client wants the highlights done, place the strands of hair chosen on the foil, apply the color or lightener and fold the foil over to seal in the application.
The difference between the slicing and weaving is how you section out the hair being used for high or lowlights.
Weaving involves taking a narrow section of hair and zigzagging through it with a comb, only using color on the zigzagged section of hair that you have kept hold of.
