Lighten hair with highlights

I love highlighted hair, so I got superexcited when I got to lighten this cool bob haircut :)

She wanted her hair to become more lighter towards summer.

Before:

I highlighted the hair using foils.
I like this method because I actually think it´s quite fun:)

After:

I didn´t put foils all the way down to the neck, I stopped just over the crest area.
I did this because I wanted to bring out her bob haircut even better :)

Do you get inspired by the season when it comes to dying your hair?

I always want to have lighter hair during summer, and darker hair during fall and winter.
But I always end up nothing with it.. It´s such and effort turning black hair blonde again! :(
