Prelightening – The Perfect Base for Highlights & Balayage

Achieve vibrant, luminous, and long-lasting hair colour with our professional Prelightening service at Sarava Unisex Saloon. Prelightening is an essential step before highlights or balayage, gently lifting your natural hair colour to create the ideal base for applying new shades. This process ensures the final colour appears brighter, more even, and more radiant — whether you’re going for subtle sun-kissed tones or bold, high-contrast transformations.

Why Choose Prelightening?

  • Creates the perfect foundation for highlights, balayage, or fashion colours.
  • Ensures vibrant, even, and long-lasting colour results.
  • Minimizes brassiness and enhances shade accuracy.
  • Prepares darker hair for lighter tones without harsh damage.
  • Helps achieve smoother transitions and multidimensional depth in your colour.

Our Process

  1. Detailed consultation to assess your current hair tone, type, and desired result.
  2. Gentle prelightening application to lift the natural pigment evenly and safely.
  3. Careful monitoring of processing time to protect hair health and prevent over-lightening.
  4. Post-lightening toning to neutralize unwanted undertones and achieve the perfect base shade.
  5. Application of highlights, balayage, or desired colours on the prelightened base.
  6. Final nourishing treatment and professional blow-dry to reveal radiant, ready-to-style hair.
