What Is A HIGH.LIFT?
Lift vs. lighten — how understanding the difference between these two processes can completely change your hair colour.
Tone, level, placement — with more hair trends and hair colour innovation than ever before, there are endless options when it comes to choosing a hair colour. Whether you’re looking to achieve a softer blonde or perfectly-toned highlights, understanding the difference between traditional lightening services and a high lift process is essential to achieving a perfect tone this season.
What’s the difference between lifting and lightening?
Technically speaking, lightening the hair utilises bleach to lift the level, from here you may need to separately tone the hair to achieve the end result. Lifting the hair uses a specific hair colour formula to lift and tone the hair at the same time.
What is a high lift process?
A high lift hair service lifts and tones the hair in a single process without using traditional bleach lighteners.“When you use a high lift, you have more certainty when it comes to the final colour result, easily taking the guesswork out of lightening hair,” says Kevin Murphy.
It is the ideal alternative for anyone who wants to steer clear of bleach and is looking for a consistent, streamlined option. Due to the technology, a high lift process can also be the ideal match when looking to achieve soft blonde results or neutralise warm undertones during lifting.
What products are used during a high lift process?
A high lift process can still achieve the lift and tone that traditional lighteners + toners would, but in a single step instead. To do this, a specific type of hair colour is used — introducing new KEVIN.MURPHY+BLONDE HIGH.LIFT . The latest innovation from KEVIN.MURPHY levels up your lift with six high lift shades that can lift up to 5 levels.
“Sometimes we choose to lift rather than lighten, and this gentle on the hair yet high- performance solution lightens hair up to five levels for optimum lift and tone. When you use BLONDE HIGH.LIFT , you know what you are getting: an innovative technology with an optimised combination of colour pigments that take out all the guesswork, delivering consistently flawless blonde results without the use of lighteners and toners.” – Kevin Murphy
