Book OnlineColour & Scattered Foils for Mid Length Hair pairs a full-head colour with softly placed foils to lift and brighten without an all-over, uniform look. It's a popular choice for anyone with mid length or shoulder-length hair who wants natural-looking dimension and a softer regrowth line than traditional root-to-tip highlights.
More information
What to Expect
The service takes around 45 minutes and combines two techniques in one appointment.
- A base colour applied all over to unify tone
- Scattered foils placed strategically to add brightness and contrast
- A finish that's multi-tonal rather than flat or single-shade
- Softer regrowth than a full head of root-to-tip highlights
Is It Right for You?
This service suits mid length hair and clients who want dimension with lower maintenance than a full foil head.
- Best for those wanting a natural, blended brightness rather than a bold change
- A good option if you're new to highlights or returning after a break
- Previously coloured or chemically treated hair may respond differently, so results can vary
- A patch test is usually required before your appointment at Jayne Elliott Hair Company in Lutterworth
Aftercare and Maintenance
Lightened sections can be more delicate, so a little care goes a long way.
- Use colour-safe shampoo and conditioner to protect tone and shine
- Avoid washing hair immediately after your appointment
- Reduce heat styling where possible to limit dryness
- Book a refresh every 6 to 12 weeks depending on how much brightness you want to maintain
Both Donna Brookes and Kasie Pearce work with foiling and colour techniques at the salon, and can help tailor placement and tone to suit your hair's condition and starting colour.

Always a great experience. The colour and cut are always spot on. I especially love the organic colours this salon uses — I’m allergic to conventional dyes and can only use organic, so it’s a perfect fit. The atmosphere in the salon is always warm, welcoming, and friendly.

Great cut and colour today by Kasie. She was extremely friendly and listened carefully to exactly what I wanted.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does Colour & Scattered Foils take?
The appointment is typically around 45 minutes, though timing can vary slightly depending on hair thickness and the amount of foiling needed.
How much does it cost?
Prices range from £84 to £95.95 for mid length hair, depending on the amount of colour and foiling required.
Do I need a patch test first?
Yes, a patch test is required at least 48 hours before your appointment to check for any allergic reaction to the colour products.
How is this different from a full head of highlights?
Scattered foils place a smaller number of foils around the parting, crown and face frame for a softer, more natural effect, whereas a full head uses foils throughout for a bolder, more intense result.
How often will I need to come back?
Most clients rebook every 6 to 8 weeks to refresh the base colour and keep the highlighted pieces looking bright.
Will this cover grey hair?
Yes, the full-head base colour component can be used to blend or cover greys, while the scattered foils add extra dimension on top.
What aftercare do you recommend?
Use colour-safe, sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner, avoid very hot water, limit heat styling, and schedule occasional conditioning treatments to protect the lightened sections.
Is this suitable for first-time colour clients?
Yes, the soft, blended effect of scattered foils makes it a popular, low-key introduction to colour for clients who haven't had highlights before.
Can previous bleach or box dye affect the result?
Yes, previous chemical treatments can affect how light the foils can safely go and how long the colour needs to process, so it's worth mentioning this when you book.
