As summer arrives in Charlotte, there’s no better way to refresh your look than sun-kissed highlights. At Limelight Salon in SouthPark, we see bold, dimensional, and natural-looking colors rise to the top of our clients’ wish lists. Here are the trends making waves in 2025—and how to get them.

1. Face-Framing Blonde

This technique is perfect for brightening your features without a full overhaul. It uses soft blonde pieces around the face to add instant light and movement.

2. Warm Caramel and Honey Tones

For brunettes or deeper blondes, caramel highlights offer richness and dimension. These warm hues pair beautifully with Charlotte’s golden-hour light.

3. Lived-In Balayage

Balayage remains a summer staple. Our version? Effortless, beachy, and blended seamlessly for a natural grow-out.

4. Copper and Strawberry Blondes

These bolder shades are trending across Charlotte and beyond, offering a bright yet sophisticated twist for summer.

Tips to Protect Your Highlights

• Use color-safe, sulfate-free shampoo.
• Apply a UV-protectant spray before going outside.
• Schedule a gloss treatment every 4–6 weeks to maintain tone.

Limelight’s expert colorists can help you choose a shade that complements your skin tone and lifestyle. Whether you want subtle brightness or a dramatic shift, we’re here to bring your summer vision to life.
