Daft hair question!

[cleanandtidy]

I’m getting my hair highlighted and restyled next week.
What will they do first? Cut or the highlights? For example lm having my fringe put back etc...
It has been a long time since l went to the hairdresser

Colour first then cut & finish

Thank you. If my style is vastly different from my new cut, how will they know where to place the highlights?
I particularly want it lighter round my fringe /face. I won’t have one when they start ...

They might do a rough dry cut first then to the legth you want, each hair dresser is different

Thank you 😊
