Blonding at House of Henshaw
Luminous. Bespoke. Effortless.
Every blonde has a personality — from soft honey to icy champagne. But true blonding is more than colour; it’s confidence, radiance, and a reflection of who you are.
At House of Henshaw, we bring your blonde to life — beautifully, safely, and completely bespoke.
Our colourists specialise in creating radiant, multidimensional blondes while keeping your hair strong, glossy, and healthy. Using premium lightening systems and bond-builders, we protect every strand so you leave glowing from root to tip.
Our Blonding Menu
1. Signature Balayage
Low-maintenance, high-impact.
A freehand technique that creates soft, sun-kissed dimension with seamless regrowth. Perfect for clients wanting a natural, blended blonde with less frequent salon visits.
Includes toner, root shadow, and luxury blow-dry finish.
Best for: lived-in blondes, soft contrast, natural lightness.
Maintenance: every 12–16 weeks.
2. Foilayage
The best of both worlds.
Combining balayage placement with traditional foiling for maximum lift and brightness, while keeping the roots softly diffused.
Ideal if you love brightness through the ends but want a seamless grow-out.
Best for: bright blondes with a softer root melt.
Maintenance: every 10–12 weeks.
3. Highlights / Babylights
Classic precision. Modern results.
Traditional foils are refined with micro-weaving for a clean, even blonde.
Babylights offer a finer, more delicate take for clients who want all-over lightness without harsh regrowth lines.
Best for: bright, even blondes or those transitioning from darker hair.
Maintenance: every 8–10 weeks.
4. Root Smudge & Gloss Refresh
Tone. Blend. Revive.
A perfect in-between appointment to refresh your tone, add shine, and softly blend your root area.
Quick, affordable, and keeps your colour looking fresh between blonding sessions.
Best for: maintaining tone and brightness.
Maintenance: every 4–6 weeks.
5. Ends Lift
Brighten and refresh faded lengths.
This service targets the mid-lengths and ends to restore brightness, remove dullness, and re-energise your blonde — without touching the roots.
Perfect between full blonding appointments or when you just want your ends glowing again.
Best for: refreshing blonde lengths, adding brightness, or reviving grown-out colour.
Maintenance: every 8–10 weeks.
6. Creative Blonde Transformation
For bold, statement blondes.
Full-head blonding, global lightening, or complete tone shifts.
A bespoke approach that may include multiple sessions to safely achieve your dream blonde without compromising condition.
Best for: platinum, champagne, or high-lift transformations.
Maintenance: tailored to your plan after consultation.
7. Face Frame & Money Piece
Instant brightness, maximum impact.
Perfect for those who want lightness through the front for a pop of contrast — ideal for in-between full services or a quick refresh.
Best for: maintenance or mini glow-ups.
Maintenance: every 6–8 weeks.

Blonde FAQ — Your Questions, Answered
Whether you’re new to blonding or maintaining your signature tone, we know you’ll have questions. Here’s everything you need to know before your appointment.
Will going blonde damage my hair?
Not with us.
At House of Henshaw, your hair’s integrity is our first priority. We use advanced lightening systems with built-in bond protectors such as K18, Epres, and Kevin Murphy COLOUR.ME, alongside tailored hydration and strengthening treatments. Every blonding service begins with a scalp and condition analysis so we can safely achieve your dream shade without compromising the health of your hair.
Can I just lighten my ends without doing my roots?
Yes — that’s exactly what our Ends Lift service is for.
It’s perfect if your roots are fine but your blonde ends have dulled or lost vibrancy. We re-brighten your mid-lengths and ends, refresh your tone, and finish with a nourishing gloss — giving your blonde new life without a full blonding session.
How often should I come in for maintenance?
It depends on your blonde type and lifestyle:
- Balayage: every 12–16 weeks
- Foilayage: every 10–12 weeks
- Highlights / Babylights: every 8–10 weeks
- Gloss Refresh / Root Smudge: every 4–6 weeks
Ends Lift: every 8–10 weeks
Your stylist will create a personalised maintenance plan during your consultation so your colour stays bright, glossy, and healthy between visits.
Do I need a toner after my blonding service?
Absolutely — toners are what make your blonde yours.
They neutralise warmth, enhance tone, and add mirror-like shine. Every blonding service at House of Henshaw includes a custom toner and gloss finish to achieve your perfect shade.
How can I keep my blonde looking fresh at home?
- Use sulphate-free shampoo and bond-building treatments.
- Rinse with cool water to maintain tone and shine.
- Use a purple or blue toning shampoo weekly to prevent brassiness.
Protect from UV and heat with a professional thermal shield.
We’ll give you a tailored homecare routine before you leave, so your blonde stays salon-fresh for longer.
Can I go from brunette to blonde in one session?
It depends on your starting depth, condition, and colour history.
Sometimes yes — but often, we’ll plan a gradual lightening journey to protect your hair’s health. Your stylist will always be honest about what’s achievable in each session and map out your safe, realistic pathway to your dream blonde.
What’s included in a Blonding Consultation?
Your consultation is a dedicated, one-to-one session where we:
- Analyse your scalp and hair condition using digital imagery
- Discuss your tone goals, lifestyle, and desired upkeep
- Recommend your ideal blonding technique
- Create a bespoke maintenance and aftercare plan
This ensures your blonde suits you — your skin tone, lifestyle, and confidence level.
How much will my blonding service cost?
Pricing varies depending on your current hair, length, and desired outcome. During your consultation, we’ll give you a clear, itemised quote — so you know exactly what’s involved before we begin.
