Stay Chic Longer: Why AirTouch is the Ultimate Low-Maintenance Hair Trend

Maintaining a high-end salon look usually requires a heavy commitment of time and money. However, a revolutionary technique called AirTouch has changed the game for those who want a "fresh from the salon" look that lasts for months rather than weeks.

If you are tired of the harsh regrowth lines of traditional highlights, here is how AirTouch keeps your style fresh longer.

1. What is AirTouch?

AirTouch is a highlighting technique that uses air, rather than traditional teasing or backcombing, to separate hair strands. The stylist uses a blow dryer to blow away the shorter, thinner "baby hairs" from a section, dyeing only the longer, stronger strands.

The result is an incredibly seamless blend that looks natural from day one.

2. Why AirTouch Stays Fresh Longer

Seamless Regrowth (No "Harsh Lines")

Because the transition between your natural root and the lightened hair is so soft, there is no "start and stop" line. As your hair grows, the color simply shifts down, looking like a deliberate ombré rather than overdue roots.

Customized Dimension

The technique works with the natural layers of your hair. By excluding the shorter hairs from the bleaching process, the stylist ensures that your natural color is woven throughout the blonde, creating a multi-dimensional look that doesn't look "flat" as it ages.

Better Hair Health

AirTouch is gentler on your hair. Since the shorter, newer hairs (the "baby hairs") are blown out of the way, they are never touched by chemicals. This prevents the over-processing and breakage often seen with repeated traditional foils.
