This foil is part of the wide range of Hair Colouring Accessories and stands out for its ease of use. Here are the features you'll notice daily:

• Thickness of 15 microns: sturdy enough to resist creasing
• Width of 12 cm: fits most strands and techniques
• Easy to fold around strands
• Retains heat for even colour results
• Stays in place during colour processing
• Available as 100-metre roll (15µ) or 250-metre roll (14µ)
• Silver-coloured, standard size without extra decoration

1. Tear off a strip of the desired length, depending on the length of the strand.
2. Lay the strip flat and apply your hair dye or bleach powder to the strand.
3. Fold the foil closed around the strand, starting with the bottom, then the sides.
4. Repeat for each strand you want to colour or bleach.
5. Leave the colour on for the indicated time, then carefully remove the foil.

Looking for more metres for less per strip? The Sibel High-Light Aluminium Foil 3x 12µ x 15cm x 100m is a great addition if you regularly do larger colourings and prefer to keep a stock on hand.

The foil completely isolates each strand from the rest of the hair. This prevents colours from mixing and ensures the dye works exactly where you want it. The 15-micron thickness helps the foil retain heat around the strand. This makes the colouring process more predictable: the colour penetrates evenly and you’re less likely to get spots or uneven results.

The Nebur High-Light Aluminiumfolie (15µ) is profesSisional aluminium foil for hair colour that you can easily use at home as long as you have scissors or a tearing edge handy. A reliable choice for anyone wanting to do highlights without hassle.

The 15µ foil is more flexible and easier to fold. The 20µ foil is sturdier and less likely to tear with heavy or thick strands.

In practice, 15 microns is the most used thickness for highlights. It folds easily around the strand and gives you enough control. If you have very thick or long hair and work with large strands, the Nebur High-Light Aluminium Foil (20µ) might be a better choice. That’s the practical difference between 15µ and 20µ salon foil: ease of use versus durability.

Technically, yes, but it’s much less pleasant to work with. Regular household foil is thinner, slips more easily, and is harder to fold without tearing.

Salon foil like the Nebur High-Light Aluminiumfolie (15µ) is wider, stronger, and specially made to keep strands tightly sealed. Regular foil also lacks a fixed width, causing uneven strips. For good results, it’s worth choosing profesSisional foil.

The foil stays firmly in place if you fold it tightly around the strand. It doesn’t slip away easily.

The 12 cm width helps here: you have enough foil at the sides to fold securely. If you want even more grip, pre-cut sheets with an anti-slip texture are an alternative. The Sibel High-Light Aluminium Foil Sheets Gold 14µ, 12 x 27 cm, 300 pieces is a good example of this.

The Nebur High-Light Aluminiumfolie (15µ) comes on a 100-metre roll. This means you decide the length per strip, handy if you work with varied strand lengths. You cut exactly what you need, no more or less.

Pre-cut sheets like the Sibel version are faster to use: you grab a sheet and start right away. This saves time if you do many highlights in a row. But you’re limited to one fixed length per sheet.

If you colour regularly and varied, the Nebur roll is the best salon foil for highlights. If speed is more important than flexibility, sheets are handier. You’ll find both options in the range of Hair Colouring Accessories.
