Do I Need Dimension In My Hair?

Hey Boutique Babes, Alyssa here! I wanted to talk about all things dimension today. 

When you show your stylist your inspiration picture, we want to find out what exactly you see in that photo and what you like about that hair. One of the most often asked questions is “𝙙𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙙𝙞𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙞𝙣 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙝𝙖𝙞𝙧” but often times our guests aren’t exactly sure what that means.


So what exactly is “dimension?”

When you look up the word dimension, well, you get a definition that describes something along the line of measurements and depth. That's definitely not what we're talking about here but the word “depth” is helpful...

The exact hair definition of Dimension is “A function of the range of tones in your hair. A head of hair that is all one color is said to be “flat” or lacking dimension. Your stylist can add dimension to your hair with highlights or lowlights.”

So now that we know a little more... Let's break it down: Dimension is achieved when there are two or more contrasting colors in the hair. We see dimension a lot when it comes to highlights or basic balayage because we don’t lighten every piece of hair.

Benefits of Dimension:
  • Makes the hair appear fuller
  • Gives the illusion of movement
  • Enhances the lighter tones

Sometimes your hair can feel “flat” and “dull” when there is one solid color at the ends...sound familiar? In order to achieve a dimensional look, I like to combine highlights and lowlights using our dimensional balayage technique.
