Highlights in Davie, FL: Full Head vs. Half Head Highlights Explained

Sep 29
2 min read

Full head or half head? It is the first question every client asks when they sit down for highlights, and the honest answer is that most people guess wrong. The right choice is not about which one is more impressive, it is about your hair history, your base color, and how much brightness you want around your face.

At AG Hair Salon, just a short drive from Davie on Stirling Road in Hollywood, our colorists take the time to explain exactly what each option does to your hair, and we will never talk you into more lightening than your hair can carry.

Full head highlights, explained

A full head means foils are woven throughout your entire head, from the hairline to the nape. It creates maximum brightness and dimension everywhere, which makes it the right choice if you are going significantly lighter, covering gray with dimension, or if you wear your hair up often and want consistency from every angle. Full head takes longer, costs more, and requires more upkeep as regrowth appears at the roots.

Half head highlights, explained

A half head focuses on the top layer and the hairline, the parts that frame your face and catch the light. If you wear your hair down most of the time, a half head often looks just as bright, because the underneath layers stay your natural color anyway. It is gentler, faster, and more affordable, and for many Davie clients it is all they need.

How to choose, in 30 seconds

  • Go full head if: you are going much lighter than your natural color, you have significant gray, or you wear your hair up often

  • Go half head if: you wear your hair down, you want a low-maintenance brightness around your face, or you are new to color

  • Not sure? Your free consultation exists exactly for this decision
