Airtouch
The art of hairdressing is constantly evolving, keeping pace with ever-changing fashion trends. Take classic highlights, for instance – they’ve transformed over the years yet remain as popular as ever. A perfect example of this evolution is the ultra-modern Airtouch colouring technique. While it may seem like a simple lightening method, in reality it’s a highly sophisticated process that requires professional expertise and can only be achieved in a salon setting.
The term “Airtouch” literally translates to “touch of air” — and air truly plays a key role in this innovative colouring method. At our salon, you can experience professional Airtouch highlights at a reasonable price. Our skilled stylists are experts in this technique, mastering every detail to deliver flawless, natural-looking results with exceptional precision.
Features of airtouch
While highlighting individual strands is nothing new, the Airtouch technique stands out for its precision and unique approach.
First, the stylist carefully combs the hair and divides it into fine sections, each no thicker than one centimetre. Starting from the back of the head, each strand is gently blown with a hairdryer to separate short, young hairs from the longer ones. A foil sheet is then placed under the selected strand, and the lightening mixture is applied, leaving a small gap of 3–5 cm from the roots.
The processing time depends on the client’s natural hair colour and the desired outcome. Throughout the entire procedure, the stylist monitors the lightening process to ensure even, flawless results. Once the colour has developed, the product is rinsed out and a nourishing balm is applied to restore smoothness and shine.
Although the method may appear simple, it’s the delicate use of air that creates the signature Airtouch effect — the soft, sun-kissed look of naturally lightened hair. The result is glossy, healthy strands with seamless, multidimensional tones.
When shades are selected correctly, the colour transitions are virtually invisible.
- ● Blondes achieve stunning warmth with honey or copper tones.
- ● Brunettes look best with light nut, caramel, or coffee hues.
- ● Light brown hair benefits from being brightened by two to three tones, adding depth and luminosity.
Benefits of airtouch coloring
The Airtouch technique is designed to enhance your natural beauty while adding depth, shine, and dimension to your hair. It’s not just a colouring method — it’s a way to achieve a refined, effortlessly elegant look. Below are the key advantages of this modern technique:
Key Advantages of the Airtouch Technique
- ● Enhanced Volume: The unique, uneven application creates a multi-tonal effect that catches the light beautifully. The result is hair that appears fuller, healthier, and more vibrant.
- ● Universal Appeal: Airtouch suits women of all ages and complements any hair length or texture. Whether your hair is straight, wavy, or curly, this technique delivers a soft, natural glow.
- ● Gentle on Hair: Only selected strands are lightened, leaving most of the hair untouched. This minimises damage and helps preserve the hair’s natural strength, elasticity, and shine.
- ● Elegant and Subtle Effect: Airtouch offers a way to refresh your appearance without drastic changes. The colour transitions are seamless, giving your hairstyle a delicate, stylish finish that looks effortlessly chic.
Another major benefit is long-lasting durability — the result maintains its beautiful, natural look for up to six months, making Airtouch colouring both a luxurious and practical choice.
Caring for hair colored with airtouch technology
Proper aftercare is essential to maintaining the beauty and longevity of your Airtouch colour. With the right approach, you can keep your shades vibrant and your hair healthy and resilient.
Stylists recommend using gentle, sulphate-free shampoos, nourishing balms enriched with natural oils, and restorative masks or sprays that provide hydration and protection. Pay special attention to the ends of your hair — they tend to be the most delicate and require extra moisture and care after colouring.
It’s also important not to attempt any toning or correction at home. Airtouch is a complex professional colouring technique that requires precision and experience. If you wish to adjust the tone or refresh your look, always return to the stylist who performed the procedure. This ensures your hair remains healthy, glossy, and beautifully coloured for as long as possible.
