Airtouch Hair Colouring

Hairdressing is constantly evolving to keep up with the latest fashion trends. For example, standard highlights have undergone many changes but have never lost their relevance. This is how the ultra-modern airtouch colouring technique was born. In essence it is partial hair lightening, but in practice it is a complex colouring process that can only be performed in a salon.

The word "airtouch" translates literally as "a touch of air" — which perfectly describes the essence of this technique. At our salon you can have airtouch hair colouring performed by professional stylists who know every nuance of the technique and deliver the highest quality results.

What is airtouch hair colouring

How airtouch works

Highlighting individual sections is nothing new. However, the airtouch technique differs from all others:

The stylist carefully combs the hair and separates it into sections no thicker than 1 cm.
Starting from the nape area, the stylist takes each section and blows it with a hairdryer to separate the short fine hairs from the rest.
A piece of foil is placed under the prepared section and colour is applied with a 3–5 cm gap from the roots.
The processing time depends on the natural hair colour and the desired result. The stylist monitors this carefully.
Once the processing time is complete, the colour is rinsed out and a conditioner is applied.

It is precisely the blowing away of short hairs that creates the effect of naturally sun-bleached hair. Locks look healthy and strong, with a colour close to natural.

When shades are selected correctly, the transition between tones will be completely invisible. Blondes should choose honey and copper tones. Brunettes will suit light hazel, caramel and coffee shades. Those with light brown hair are recommended to lighten by two to three tones. Overall, airtouch colouring gives hair a natural and harmonious look.

Benefits of airtouch hair colouring

Airtouch colouring will help highlight your attractiveness and draw attention to your natural beauty. The undeniable advantages of this colouring technique:

Volume boost — varied colouring of sections adds depth. Shades play in the sunlight and create the effect of full, well-groomed hair.
Versatility — airtouch highlights suit women of any age. The colouring looks stunning on both bob and long hair.
Safety — only individual sections are coloured, not the entire head of hair. The majority of hair remains uncoloured.
Aesthetic appeal — airtouch allows you to refresh your look without radical changes. The hairstyle looks delicate and stylish.

The result of airtouch colouring looks so natural and harmonious that it is hard to distinguish from the natural hair colour. Locks become vibrant, healthy and glossy. The airtouch effect lasts for up to six months.

Airtouch on dark hair

Airtouch colouring looks particularly striking on dark hair. Correctly chosen shades create a natural contrast and add depth without harsh transitions. Airtouch on dark hair is a gentle lightening of individual sections that visually makes hair look more vibrant and voluminous. The stylist will find the best option during the consultation.

Caring for hair after airtouch colouring

Proper care helps maintain the colour shades longer and makes hair stronger. Stylists recommend using mild shampoos, conditioners with natural oils, masks and sprays. Remember to nourish and moisturise the ends — they suffer the most during airtouch colouring and need extra attention.

Do not recolour your locks at home. Airtouch is a type of professional colouring that is practically impossible to replicate at home. Avoid aggressive chemical products and excessive heat styling. Use only quality products for colour-treated hair and avoid washing your hair too frequently — this can cause colour to fade faster.

FAQ

How does airtouch differ from balayage?

With balayage colour is applied by hand using a sweeping motion, while in airtouch the sections are first blown with a hairdryer — this removes short fine hairs and creates a softer, more natural colour transition. The result of airtouch colouring looks even more natural than balayage.
Is airtouch suitable for dark hair?

Yes. Airtouch works beautifully on dark hair — correctly chosen shades create a natural contrast without harsh transitions. The stylist will select the right palette based on the natural colour.
How long does airtouch colouring last?

Airtouch colouring maintains its original appearance for more than six months. This is one of the main advantages of this technique compared to other highlighting methods.
Is this technique harmful to hair?

Only individual sections are coloured — the majority of hair remains untouched. When quality materials are used and proper aftercare is followed, airtouch is safe.
How often does airtouch colouring need to be refreshed?

Thanks to the soft colour transition, grown-out roots do not create a harsh contrast, so airtouch does not require frequent touch-ups — once every 4–6 months is sufficient.
What is the price of airtouch colouring in Kyiv?

The price depends on hair length, complexity of the work and the volume of materials required. Current pricing can be confirmed with the salon administrator or when booking.
