1. Tear or cut a strip of foil to the desired length.
2. Lay the strip flat and apply the colour product to the section you want to treat.
3. Place the section on the bottom half of the foil.
4. Fold the foil closed: first folding up the bottom, then folding the sides inwards.
5. Repeat for every section you colour or lighten.
6. Leave the colour on for the required time, then remove the foil.

Do you work with a different thickness or want a spare roll ready? The High-Light Aluminium Foil (15µ) is the thinner Nebur option and folds a little more smoothly – ideal if you prefer lighter foil.

Thin foil bends easily when you fold it tightly around a section. This makes the job harder and causes tears more quickly. The 20-micron thickness of this foil holds its shape even after multiple folds or stacking sections. Foil that doesn’t tear makes your work easier and more precise. You place each section exactly where you want it and the foil stays put. Stronger salon foil for bleaching is not just a luxury, it simply makes your work more efficient. You get more from your materials and waste less.

The 20µ version is thicker and sturdier. The 15µ foil is thinner and folds more smoothly.

Practically, 20µ tears less during intenSive use and keeps its shape better when folded tightly around a section. The 15µ is better for quick, light work but bends more easily with firm folds. Which foil you use for highlights depends on your technique: choose 20µ for precision and sturdiness, 15µ for flexibility.

No. The 20-micron thickness ensures the foil stays strong, even when folded tightly or stacking several sections.

Users rate this foil an average 5 stars and find it easy to work with. The extra thickness compared to standard 15µ foil really makes a difference. If you do highlights regularly, you’ll notice less material wasted because strips stay intact.

Each roll is 12 cm wide and 50 metres long, enough for most highlight and balayage techniques.

If you work with very wide or thick sections, 12 cm might feel narrow. One user wished the foil was slightly wider. For finer techniques and standard sections, the width is perfect. If you’re unsure, you can always use two strips side by side for wider sections. If you want to buy Nebur High-Light Aluminiumfolie (20µ) - 2X50M for intenSive salon use, the 2x50m pack offers enough material for longer sesSions.

If you do lots of highlights and value foil that stays strong, Nebur High-Light Aluminiumfolie (20µ) - 2X50M is the obvious choice. It doesn’t tear easily, keeps its shape when folded, and lasts longer per strip. The 2x50m pack is smart if you work regularly and don’t want to open new rolls often.

If you prefer foil that folds more smoothly or do coarser techniques where speed matters, the High-Light Aluminium Foil (15µ) is a better alternative. It folds lighter and handles easier if speed beats sturdiness. Both options are available in the Nebur range.
