Choosing the Right Lightening Technique for You

At Johnson Blythe Salon, we offer a range of professional lightening techniques tailored to your hair goals. Balayage is a popular choice if you're after a low-maintenance, natural look, with soft highlights that grow out gracefully over time.

If want a more delicate finish, babylights mimic the way the sun naturally brightens strands, adding a subtle, summery texture. For a bright face and more defined style, face-framing highlights are perfect, while a full head of blonde will completely transform your look.

Caring for Your Lightened Hair

Once your hair is lightened, a good home care routine is essential to keep it looking and feeling healthy. Hydration is your new best friend, so be sure to incorporate weekly deep conditioning treatments to prevent dryness and keep your hair soft and shiny.

To maintain that fresh, salon-quality tone, we recommend a good purple shampoo to counteract the brassiness that can creep in over time. If you regularly style your locks with a straightening iron or dryer, apply a heat protectant product beforehand, and use low heat settings whenever possible. Our experts are always happy to suggest the perfect home care and heat protection products to suit your hair type.

Why Lighten at the Salon vs. At Home?

We get that it's tempting to lighten your hair at home, however, salon lightening is both safer and better for your locks. Our experienced stylists apply products with expert precision to avoid patchiness and over-processing, and only use the highest-quality lighteners designed to be kind to your hair.

We’re also able to tone your hair to the perfect shade, whether you’re after a cool ash blonde or a warm honey hue — something that’s difficult to achieve at home without professional knowledge. Most importantly, we'll assess the health of your hair before we begin, so the final result is not only beautiful, but long-lasting and damage-free.
