A closer look at the Jean Louis David Frontlight treatment

Frontlight is the new exclusive treatment at Jean Louis David salons which lightens the front section of the wearer’s hair. Focused onto the strands around the face and forehead, this new technique gives the illusion of more movement and body. Frontlight opens up the face, brightens the complexion and breaks up chunky blocks of color.
 
A stylist will apply the Frontlight color to the front section of the hair, in a soft, natural way. ‘The technique is not designed for blunt fringes, for example. A layered fringe is the perfect way to highlight your treatment and see its full potential. The sections of hair near the front of the face which fall to the sides or back can be lightened using the Frontlight salon treatment’.
 
The intensity of the lightening color depends on your desired look. ‘You can go for strong strands of color or subtle light-reflecting sections depending on the look you are going for. When lightening the hair, your stylist will select certain strands from around the front of the face and take them one or two tones lighter than your natural base color. To enable the light to bounce off these strands, they are lightened again, which catches the light and makes your hair shine’.
 
Frontlight can be applied to hair of all lengths. ‘The only section of the hair which should be avoided is the fringe as this is too short to see the effects. The aim is to make your hair shine and increase movement’.
 
Our tip: The Frontlight treatment doesn’t require a long salon appointment. Application time is around 10 minutes depending on hair length, then the waiting time which depends on how light you want your hair to be. Your hair is transformed in next to no time at all!
