The starting point

Find the right coverage for your colour

Root maintenance, a change of shade and brighter pieces through the hair are different colour appointments. Sixteen A’s tint and highlight options let you discuss where you want colour placed, how much of your existing shade you want to keep and the contrast you prefer.

Tints, foils & finishing tones

Regrowth tint

Focus the conversation on the new growth at your roots. Explain your existing shade and whether you also want any change through the lengths; that may affect the service required.

Full tint

Discuss an overall tint when your plans extend beyond the regrowth. Bring a shade reference and tell Tina about all previous colour so the intended depth and tone can be assessed.

T-parting highlights

A targeted highlighting option centred on the parting and visible upper sections. Ask Tina to explain the exact coverage and whether it suits where you usually part your hair.

Half head highlights

An option for adding highlighted sections without choosing full-head coverage. Discuss where you want brightness to show, especially if you regularly wear your hair up.

Full head highlights

More widespread highlight placement for a result that carries through more of the hair. This describes coverage; it does not promise a particular level of lightness in one appointment.

T-parting highlights & surrounding tint

Combines the targeted highlight option with tint around it. Discuss this when you want selected lighter pieces as well as a change or refresh to the surrounding base colour.

Half head highlights & surrounding tint

Brings half-head highlight placement together with a tinted background. Tell Tina how much contrast you want between the highlighted pieces and the rest of your colour.

Full head highlights & surrounding tint

A broader combination of highlight placement and surrounding tint. Describe both the brightness you want and your preferred background shade when arranging this appointment.

Tinting & toning

Toning is a conversation about the shade of your finished colour. Ask which tinting or toning service fits your starting point and whether it is included in the colour appointment being quoted.

Before you visit

Your colour history matters

Mention home dyes, salon colour, previous lightening and any past reactions before a colour booking. Ask Tina about consultation and patch-test requirements and follow the instructions given. Exact requirements and timings must be confirmed by the salon.

Ask Tina about your appointment

Looking after your hair afterwards

A few useful answers

Hair colour & highlights: your questions

How do I choose between T-parting, half and full head highlights?

Think about where you want lighter pieces to show and how you wear your hair. The options describe coverage; Tina can explain which placement fits your goal.

When would I choose highlights with surrounding tint?

This combination is worth discussing when the background colour needs attention as well as the highlighted sections. Share your current colour and your preferred result so Tina can advise.

Can I book a tint to make previously coloured hair much lighter?

Do not choose a service on that assumption. Previous dye affects the available options. Explain your colour history first; a colour-removal discussion may be more appropriate.

Is a toner automatically included?

Inclusions and pricing have not been confirmed on the published service list. Ask Tina to confirm any toning and finishing services before booking.
