Different ways of lighting your hair
If you liked what you saw, now you should choose what kind of blonde locks to make in your hair. They are easy to make, they can have different thicknesses and take all or only part of the strands. Also, to adopt the look you don’t necessarily have to lighten the hairs too much. Know some possibilities.
Lights
They are blond and fine locks made from the root to the tip of the hair. They can be made in greater or lesser quantity, depending on your goal. Ideally, the root should be retouched every 2 months to keep the look bright.
Babylights
They are very fine and evenly distributed lights to give a homogeneous look from root to tip. The idea is to look as natural as possible. In this case, the touch-ups on the root need to be more constant as soon as the threads grow about two centimeters.
Reflex
The blonde locks are wider and more marked and usually very light to contrast greatly with the base colour of the hair. For a more natural look, bet on locks of different thickness and different shades of blonde.
