New color trends come and go each year, but there are a few standouts that will carry on season after season. And as we head into a new year, more than anything clients are looking for show-stopping looks. More than any other service, highlights tend to be the constant thanks to their solid foundation and the ability to be customized for a variety of hair types. From gray blending to brightening a face frame or adding a sun-kissed finish, highlights will always be in style and this season we’ve seen the return of the Chunky Highlight for good.
What Are Chunky Highlights?
Thicker sections, thicker weaves, more contrasting color — this is exactly what the chunky highlight delivers. While highlights have always been created and customized based on hair type and density, we’ll see all hair types accepting the new chunky version.
While many of us will think of Kelly Clarkson and her tiger stripes, the new version of Chunky Highlights are slightly more diffused. They should be well thought out based on the haircut and go-to style your client will be wearing, but with a thicker finish, these highlights add much more drama to any look.
The Express Chunky Highlight
Alongside new color trends, everyone is also looking to spend less time in the salon. To meet these demands, the Express Chunky Highlight service is ideal! It offers a bold touch of color with a quick and effortless service. Plus, this formula uses Wella Professionals Koleston Perfect to tone, promising long-lasting results and the perfect tone between touch-up appointments.
