13 Hair Colors That Will Make You Want to Get Lowlights Right Now

Lowlights can be a bit of a mystery…what are they and how do I get them? Simply put, think of them as reverse highlights.  Lowlights do the opposite of highlights by creating depth and adding dimension to your hair. These accents are typically darker than your base color and can be used to contrast overly-highlighted hair, create multi-tonal looks or create a new shape via color blocking. You can be as creative as you like! Create a soft effect lowlight by using shades within one to two levels of your base color. Create a high contrast lowlight with shades that are within three to four levels of your base color. Get creative and try a blend of the two for a multi-tonal finish.
Too much warmth can cause your look to go brassy. In contrast, too much coolness and you risk looking drab and flat. Talk to your stylist about your color goals and take your look to the next level. Explore our lowlight options to help transition your hair color from season to season!
