Partial Highlights for Face Framing, Subtle Highlights or Maintenance
A highlighting service that is applied to only a portion of your head. These types of highlights can be placed around your face to frame it in or to brighten up your look. They can also be placed in the top part of your hair for subtle highlights. Let’s talk more, compare to full highlights, explore cost, maintenance and at home care.
Partial highlights are normally used only to go a few shades lighter than your natural hair color to brighten your look. You can also have them applied in between full highlight sessions to help keep the top roots from showing.
When Do Full Highlights Make Sense?
If you have dark hair and you desire a blonde look, you will need full highlights. Any look where you desire to be more than 2-3 shades lighter than your hair will need full highlights.
How Much Do Partial Highlights Cost?
There are several factors that can have an effect on price. Let’s break them down to a couple main factors. Service time and product costs. The main factors here are the length and thickness of your hair. Hair history also is a factor.
Lightening Process: The first process is most often completed with a professional bleach. Pricing is broken down by hair length for partial head single bleaching process.
Starting Partial Highlights Base Price: Single Process
Hair Length, Thickness
Partial Head
Very Short
$110
Short to Medium Length
$140
Thick Medium to Long
$160
Long Thick
$185
Toning Process: Whenever bleach is used, a toning process is required to create your desired color. A single toning process is $35-$60. More than one toning process may be required to achieve your desired color and may be required if you have long or thick hair.
Bleach Protection Additive: Whenever bleach is used to lighten your hair it is very highly recommended to use a bleach protection additive. This will help tremendously in protecting the health of your hair. A single use additive is $35 for short to medium length hair. For long, thick hair or extensions additive can be $45+.
Hair History: If your hair has been dyed recently or has taken any damage recently this can affect the processes your hair needs as well as product needs to achieve your desired look.
Free Consultation: While the above information helps to demystify pricing, you can always schedule a free consultation to get an estimate of what it will cost to achieve your desired look.
Maintenance for Partial Highlights
Depending on the desired application, this method can be higher maintenance. Typically we alternate between partial and full highlights to maintain contrast and touch up your roots. Consider balayage highlights for a lower maintenance option.
Partial Balayage vs Partial Highlights
Balayage is highly requested because it has softer, less noticeable regrowth lines than traditional highlights. The idea is that less is more in creating a natural lived in look. The look is often created by hand painting instead of the traditional foiling.
Highlights aren’t cheap. Make sure to protect your investment. Color-treated hair requires extra moisture and conditioning to stay healthy. Especially with the frequent touch-ups of partial highlights. We are a Bumble and bumble dedicated salon and carry a focused line of hydration products.

Recent Reviews For Partial Highlights
I was recommended to Hottie Hair by a couple of my coworkers after they have gotten their hair done and I wanted to go in myself. I booked my appointment and was helped by Brooke. I’m new to the whole hair styling thing so I was rather nervous and Brooke helped me every step of the way, l was looking for a medium fade with blonde highlights throughout. Brooke offered different paths we could go down for different styles, made the entire process completely anxiety free (I was super anxious going in because I had no idea what to say), and was super hilarious and is super awesome to work with. I’m a person that likes to find a really awesome place and stay there and I can say for certain that I’ve found my new place. THANK YOU BROOKE for helping me out and making the process 100000% pain free and anxiety free!!

I went to visit this salon because of a recommendation from my husband’s coworker and I’m glad I did. The employees were nice, the salon was very clean and the atmosphere was welcoming. I got a free consultation before getting a cut and color. I have already booked another appointment to add highlights. Stylist: Brooke was a delight to work with. . She listened to me when I said I was willing to go out of my comfort zone and wanted her option. Her color job was very even and I love the movement of my hair. I purchased shampoo and conditioner (something I rarely do at salons) and am going back to add highlights soon.

Haley was my stylist yesterday and she was fantastic! She nailed the exact color and highlighting look that I wanted. The cut is excellent as well. She also gave me a beautiful full blow out, while pinning each section that she blew out so that the final look had these big, beautiful, layered waves. Thank you so much Miss Hailey! I love Hottie Hair.

After being out of the country for a 3 years, it was great to have such an amazing experience at my first appointment back in the states! Saje listened to what I wanted and was extremely efficient and professional. She did a beautiful job with my color and highlights and I absolutely loved how it turned out. She did a gorgeous blowdry on my curly hair, too! I love this place!

I have been getting my hair done by Chris Doty for over a year now. He has been so wonderful and caring! He looks out for my best interests when it comes to my hair goals. I started out wanting to go full blonde but I had to deploy and knew I would not be able to do my hair touch ups in the desert. Chris did highlights to lighten up my hair a bit and enjoy while on deployment but the water in the Middle East was not the best... and upon my return we had to take measures to make my hair healthier again. It's been 7 months since I came back! And thanks to Chris my hair is almost, if not fully recovered! Thank you so much! Can't wait to continue my journey with him!! Here are my before and after pictures!

My stylist Chris is a hair artist…!!! After asking a few questions he went to work with his magic hands. He did an amazing job. He cut, colored and I believe highlighted my hair. He also educated me on how to properly maintain it. I will be coming here as long as Chris is working there…!!?

Everyone in the salon is so professional and nice!! I had highlights done by Carmen and couldn't be happier!!!!!!! I have textured hair which has always been a challenge when hairdressers try to do my hair. She took SO much time rechecking the foils to make sure I had no breakage!!!! Also she was able to dry and style my hair. The first time ever that I didn't walk out with a wet head!! Carmen listens to what you want and does her magic Best hairdresser hands dow.! I'm so glad i found her. Not to mention, she is an absolute sweetheart!!!!

I just recently moved to Las Vegas and was browsing for the perfect hair salon to get some highlights done. I visited Hottie Hair and Breanna did an absolute brilliant job. She's quite an artist and a good listener. I came in for some highlights and after getting it done in Florida and looking quite unnatural blonde, she took a complete different approach to make it look more natural. Absolutely happy and looking forward to returning!

Vanessa is truly Amazing! Not only is she a beautiful person but she really is a COLOR EXPERT! My hair is so thin and she was able to give it so much volume with only two bundles. She matched it perfectly to the original highlights that had grown out to create such a beautiful balayage. I have gotten so many compliments on my hair and now definitely a lifelong client!

The salon was very clean and organized. My stylist/colorist Joe was fantastic! He was on time and didn’t keep me there longer than necessary. I told him I have a difficult time sitting for long periods and he had me out of there in 90 minutes, without rushing. He gave me gorgeous highlights, shampooed, conditioned and styled my hair (his scalp massage is the BEST!) and also matched (and put in) the new Halo Hair I purchased. My hair is long and beautiful and looks 100% natural! Joe was amazing and I will definitely go back to him and would recommend him to everyone! He is kind, personable, knowledgeable and highly skilled in his craft. I love Hottie Hair!

Hottie Hair does phenomenal work. The skill and artistry that the stylists have at Hottie is impeccable and unmatched at other salons. I first found Hottie Hair after some lunatic from the strip cut all of my hair off above my chin in the worst uneven cut I’ve ever had. I actually cried how bad it looked. My husband drove me to Hottie Hair and Jamie truly transformed my hair. She explained everything about hair extensions and answered all my questions. Jamie did an exact color match and made me look like a super model with tape ins. She helped me grow my hair back with tape ins and created various looks for me along the way each equally beautiful. I stopped doing extensions and ended up elsewhere afterwards and surely enough I returned to Hottie. This time I returned with greening blonde highlights. Jamie once again transformed me . I have also been to Brian, Chris, and Carmen for wash/blow outs and they are all equally amazing. I love the stylists and their skill here.

I can't even put into words on how amazing their customer service is. I had never been to this salon before, I had gone to a couple other places that day to buy extensions and couldn't find a color match for my highlighted hair. I did a Yelp search and saw that Hottie sells extensions & since it was on my way home I decided to stop in. When I walked in Joe the manager was really friendly and helpful. I ended up buying extensions that weren't necessarily "A" grade but they were a perfect color match. I was told that I'd have to care for them very well considering they only have about a 3 month lifespan.. I also bought the Olaplex kit to make sure I take extra care of the hair. About 4 weeks later, I called to tell them that the extension I bought were starting to tangle and I believe that the hair was a "bad batch". Long story short the company had discontinued that specific hair because it did not meeting their expectations. Joe remembered me & said he'd do everything in his power to make it right but had to check with the owner. He e mailed the owner to see if she would be willing to swap them out for something else of same value or maybe upgrade and pay the difference in costs. Joe called me the next day and said that the owner agreed and he then made me an appointment to come in to take them out & do the swap. The stylist there are so friendly & extremely knowledgeable. Rikki washed and blew out my hair (best head massage ever!) I love my new extensions and I will definitely be back! Thank you for having integrity and providing exceptional customer service!

This was the best experience and outcome I’ve ever had in a hair salon! Bold words but seriously not kidding! Not only did they accommodate me last minute they even helped me change to the salon closest to the airport so I wouldn’t miss my flight. Justin took care of everything and gave me not only the best highlights ever but most of all the BEST extensions for my thin and fragile hair! I had been wearing hats since having my last set of extensions removed ( in somewhere else).. I had such a fiasco with extensions before weather being too tight and causing constant headaches and scalp pain or just poor placement, or even too little hair leaving me with a heavy weight and pulled follicles from the root. These were all done by inexperienced practitioners which I clearly see now since my experience with Justin at hottie hair. He was so incredible in every way- listening to all my concerns and taking time to understand. I have always asked the stylist I had before if she could use one sided tape because my hair was so weak and she refused, putting in only sandwiches (2x the weight of single weft.) Well I happy to say I have it now, Justin agreed placing the tapes just perfectly on my head - not too tight and easy to pull up on a pony tail- he’s brilliant! I’m so sooo grateful it makes me tear up thinking of the hell ive gone through with other stylists claiming to be experienced with extensions but leaving my hair damaged and follicle strained. Justin also gave me a beautiful cut and moisturizing “miracle” hair treatment. There are not enough words to show my gratitude for such incredible service- I will be back every time! Thank you Justin and hottie hair salon!

On my last trip to Las Vegas from CA the weekend of 5/26, I made an appointment for highlights, cut and style specifically with Ashlee of Hottie Hair. She always does a great job. Ashlee takes the time to do a thorough consult before proceeding. I most appreciate her knowledge about hair color and highlights. Her application technique is precise and her attention to detail is obvious in the end result. She works efficiently, neatly and professionally. This was my 3rd visit with Ashlee and I've been very happy with the outcome each time that I've considered traveling to Vegas just to get my hair done by Ashlee. She's the best ! As for Hottie Hair Salon in Henderson, it's a spacious location that also offers a vast array of hair extensions for sale. The location is easy to find and is no more than 10 minutes from the Vegas strip. I would recommend getting your hair done at Hottie Hair, just ask for Ashlee!
