Hair foil formats

Hair Foil Factory makes hair foil in three base formats, pop-up sheets, pre-cut sheets and rolls, in 12–20 µm. Wide and extra-wide sizes cover balayage and long hair. Embossing and printing are options applied across the sheet and roll formats. The table lists sizes, surface and minimum order for each.

Sizes are listed in the unit each is sold in. The hair foil size chart draws them all to one scale and gives both inches and millimetres.

The table shows our standard range, not the edge of what we make. Size, thickness, sheet count, print and box can each be set for your order; the ranges are on custom and private label hair foil.

How the formats relate

Pop-up sheets, pre-cut sheets and rolls are the same foil prepared three ways. A roll is slit to width and wound on a core. A pre-cut sheet is cut to a fixed length and stacked flat. A pop-up sheet is cut and interfolded, so that a box hands out one sheet at a time. Which one a buyer needs is mostly decided by the market: sheets in the US and Canada, rolls in the UK and the EU. Pop-up vs pre-cut vs roll hair foil compares them on speed, waste and cost.

Wide and extra-wide foil is a size range, sold as sheets and as the wider roll, for balayage, foilyage and long hair.

Embossed foil and printed foil are not separate formats. They are surface options: any sheet or roll can be embossed, and most can be coloured or printed. Each has its own page because each raises its own questions, about grip for embossing and about ink and bleach for printing.

Pricing and minimum order

We do not publish a price list. Hair foil pricing explains what drives the price of each format, and MOQ and lead time by format lists minimum orders and production times. For a figure on your own specification, request a quote.
