What are Front Face Framers?

What are Front Face Framers?

Front Face Framers are highlights concentrated around the hairline and the pieces that fall against your face. Often called a money piece, they create a brighter, contrasting frame that draws attention to your eyes and cheekbones. Because the colour is focused at the front, it is a quicker, lower-commitment, and more affordable way to refresh your look than full highlights or all-over colour.

What Front Face Framers are great for

Front Face Framers are perfect for:

  • A fresh, brightening update without committing to full colour
  • A flattering, contrasting frame around the face
  • Trying out a lighter look before going bigger
  • Refreshing your colour between full appointments

Are Front Face Framers right for you?

If you want a low-commitment, high-impact change, or a way to brighten between bigger colour appointments, framers are perfect. If you want all-over dimension, full highlights or balayage will give you more. They also pair beautifully on top of existing colour. We will help you decide at your consultation.

Aftercare and maintenance

There is no downtime, and because the colour is focused at the front, upkeep is easy:

  • Wait about 48 hours before your first wash, then use colour-safe, sulphate-free products and a purple shampoo as needed to keep the tone bright.
  • Use a hydrating or bond-building mask to keep the lightened pieces healthy.
  • Limit hot tools and use heat protectant to preserve tone and shine.
  • A gloss or toner keeps the tone fresh, and you can refresh framers on their own without a full colour appointment.

Treatments that pair well

Treatments that pair well:

  • Balayage or Highlights when you are ready for all-over dimension
  • Colour Glossing (Toner) to keep your money piece bright and brass-free
  • Full Colour as a base, with framers adding contrast on top
