Ever spot hair inspo pics with perfect ribbons of blonde, caramel or copper peeking through? That’s often foils doing the work. Hair foils are essentially a way to isolate sections of hair and apply colour with more precision. Unlike all-over colour, they let hairdressers place shades exactly where they pop best or blend naturally.
If your hair is naturally dark or you're after a bright lift with minimal grow-out lines, foils can deliver depth and brightness without compromising your hair's integrity. You can go subtle, statement or somewhere in between minus harsh regrowth or flat tones that come with block colour.
At Arinni Hair, we live for hair foil glow-ups. We’ve worked with all kinds of concepts and clients, and seeing those foils come out and reveal clean, beautiful colours never gets old. From lived-in blends to head-turning transformations, foils are one of our favourite ways to bring your hair goals to life.
Choose your own colour adventure with our range of foiling techniques :
Lightens your hair from roots to ends using foils strategically placed across all sections of your head.
Creates brightness and contrast by focusing foils through the top and side sections of your hair.
Illuminates your hairline to softly frame the face.
Lightens your entire hair from roots to ends, creating a bright base before applying your desired colour or toner.
Also known as "peek-a-boo", this look adds a contrasting shade to the bottom layers of your hair while leaving the top layers natural or in a different tone. It creates a hidden pop of colour that’s only visible when the hair moves, is tied up or styled in certain ways. Perfect for a bold yet subtle look.
Creates soft highlights for a natural, lived-in appearance.
A more subtle version of regular balayage with softer colour transitions.
A more dramatic version of highlights with vivid colours and chunky placements.
A more blended approach than pop lights but bolder than soft balayage for extra depth.
