#4 Faceframe with the Airtouch-Method
#5 Teasing
#4 Faceframe + Airtouch:
Before you start, straighten the hair. For the Airtouch technique, it's best to use a hairdryer with a narrow nozzle. Section the hair finely and neatly. Make sure to use controlled movements and keep the section under constant tension. It's crucial to pay attention to your finger positioning. The closer your fingers are to the roots, the fewer hairs will be blown out and the lighter the highlight will be. Make sure to position your fingers at the same place around the entire contour to achieve an even lightening effect. In the video, we placed two sections directly on top of each other.
If you want a more pronounced face frame, you can place several foils on top of each other, or just one if you prefer a more subtle look.
When you have closed the foils, it is helpful to bend a slight curve at the roots downwards with your middle and index fingers. This way, the foil will stay closed even when you work on the next section with the hairdryer.
#5 Teasing:
#5 Teasing: As seen in the video, we section off two-finger wide sections, which are then subdivided. The space in between is left untreated, or a lowlight can be added here for more depth and dimension as needed. We position the tail comb at the same spot for each section to create a uniform result. Always remember: the closer to the roots, the less hair is pushed back, and the lighter it will be. For more naturalness and dimension, a certain amount of natural hair is crucial. Less is more. However, it also depends on the final result you want to achieve. Instead of sectioning off two-finger wide sections, you can also create larger or smaller sections.
At the crown and back of the head, you can place the last sections horizontally, and at the highest point, create a fine zigzag section to allow for a natural blend. Do the same at the front parting.

#7 After
#6 Gloss:
We start at the roots with a root shade (root blending) using a darker tone. I recommend choosing a shade that is very close to the client's natural color. This way, there will be no visible line when the hair grows out. For the lengths and ends, we use a lighter tone. We colored the face-framing section only with the lighter shade, as it should remain light up to the roots.
