A recent hair trend we’ve been seeing across social media platforms like TikTok has been the Scandinavian Hairline, or “Scandi Hair”. Despite this seeming like a new style, the technique itself isn’t new, and involves applying bleach/light pieces to the front hairline, resulting in a seamless face-framing halo of blonde. 

Understanding the Technique

Overall, the Scandinavian Hairline technique is all about creating a soft, natural-looking blonde frame around the face. Unlike traditional highlighting methods that focus on streaks or foils scattered throughout the hair, this technique hones in on the front hairline, mimicking the sun-kissed glow that is characteristic of Scandinavian beauty.

Achieving Seamless Blending

Seamless blending is essential to achieve the Scandi Hair look. By strategically applying bleach to the hairline and carefully feathering the color upwards, stylists are able to create a gradient effect that seamlessly transitions from darker roots to lighter ends. The result is a soft, diffused blend that appears effortlessly chic.

Customization and Personalization

We love the Scandinavian Hairline technique because it’s super versatile. Whether you prefer a subtle, barely-there blonde or a more dramatic, high-contrast look, this technique can be tailored to suit a variety of preferences and hair types. By adjusting the placement and intensity of the color to achieve the desired level of brightness and dimension, your stylist can ensure that you get the exact look you’re after. 

Maintenance and Upkeep

One of the benefits of the Scandinavian Hairline technique is its low maintenance nature. Because the highlights are concentrated primarily around the hairline, regrowth is less noticeable compared to more traditional highlights!
