This guide focuses on choosing the appointment for face-framing highlights. Use it to prepare a specific salon conversation, then confirm the plan with the stylist who assesses your hair.
Choose the goal before the booking label
Lightened pieces around the face draw attention to the front of the hairstyle. To book face-framing highlights, explain the finished result and ask which menu item matches it. Similar labels can describe different appointment blocks, especially when a consultation, cutting or finishing is also needed.
Give the salon useful information
Describe your current length, texture and hair history, then explain what should change. Placement should be checked with your usual part and with your hair tied back. Ask: “How will the front pieces look with my normal part?” If you are deciding between face-framing highlights and a brighter full highlight, say so before the visit.
Select the actual studio
Craft Collective has a North Hills studio at 2014D Babcock Blvd, Pittsburgh, and a Canonsburg studio at 115 W Pike St. North Hills has online booking. Canonsburg is by appointment; call 724-514-7231 to schedule. Confirm the selected stylist, service and location rather than assuming every appointment is available at both studios.
