If you’ve ever admired hair that seemed to catch the light from every angle, chances are you were looking at expertly done highlights. Whether you love a bold platinum look, a sun-kissed balayage, or soft caramel ribbons, the right hair color can completely transform your style, boost your confidence, and even take years off your appearance.

At Nousha’s Hair Studio in Mequon, WI, I specialize in creating custom color blends that are unique to you — no one-size-fits-all formulas here.
Why Highlights Are More Than Just Color
Highlights do more than brighten your hair — they add dimension, movement, and depth. This is especially true with multi-tonal techniques that combine cool and warm shades for a natural yet striking effect.
Some of my most requested styles include:
Platinum Blonde Highlights – Perfect for an icy, high-fashion glow.
Balayage Highlights – Hand-painted for a sun-kissed, low-maintenance finish.
Face-Framing Lowlights – To accentuate your best features and add contrast.
Pairing Highlights with Hair Treatments
Beautiful color is only as good as the health of your hair. That’s why I always recommend pairing highlights with deep-conditioning or bond-building treatments. These treatments:
Restore shine and softness
Strengthen hair after lightening
Extend the life of your color
One of my client favorites is the Organic Keratin Smoothing Treatment, which tames frizz and makes hair more manageable while keeping it silky and healthy.
Why Professional Color Matters
DIY color may seem tempting, but achieving a multi-dimensional, salon-quality result requires expert techniques, professional-grade products, and an eye for detail. At Nousha’s Hair Studio, I customize every formula to match your skin tone, style, and maintenance preferences — so your hair always looks like you, only better.
