“Fake” A Full Foil In 3 Steps: Here’s How

Update Your Service Menu with This Easy “Full Foil” Placement & Formula Breakdown

Increase client retention, gain new clients and refresh your service menu with this quick, efficient blonding service. Perfect for clients who are short on time or working with a budget, BTC Team Member Taylor Delatorre’s (@taylordidmyhair) “fake” full foil placement is going to be your blonde client’s new favorite service request. Keep scrolling to get her application steps, formulas and more. 

Why Refreshing Your Service Menu Is Important

It’s important to offer new services to clients by keeping our menu fresh; without express options or the opportunity to try something new, you could be missing out on either retaining clients or gaining potential clients. Flexible options are important!

We all have those clients who ask for a “partial” based on timing, schedules and budgets. Instead of an eye-roll, shift your mind-set and booking options. “My clients love the option of this add-on service! It’s your job to give them options,” Taylor explains.

This placement requires less foils and more impact, and it’s great for clients that wear their hair up. “This placement gives the look of a full foil when the hair is worn up, and it brightens up the darkness that falls around the neck when the hair is worn down,” Taylor adds.

How To Book: For this elevated service, Taylor adds $15 to her typical partial foil price and explains that this will add more visible brightness where it counts, without having to tackle the interior.

How-To: “Full” Foil In Three Easy Steps

1. Use Taylor’s “ponylight” placement and split the hairline into three sections; then, use three back-to-back weaves within each section.

Pro Tip: Taylor uses Joico Blonde Life Lightener because it delivers nine levels of fast-acting lift while strengthening hair and reducing breakage by 54 percent. “[I] love this lightener for an even, controlled lift without the worry of compromising the hair,” Taylor says.

2. Apply partial foil placement through the top of the head.

Pro Tip: When weaving the Mohawk, have your client tilt their head down and work from back to front, taking horizontal weaves while standing in front of them. This will create the most natural blend.

3. Leave out the hair below the crown. By using this high-impact foil placement, you don’t need to foil the interior to achieve a bright end result.

That’s it! Three easy steps for bright, blended results:
