You can add highlights to your custom hair using the tools built into Blender.

Select a portion of your hair mesh. Go up to Object Mode and change to Vertex Paint mode. Make sure your shading is set to Viewport Shading.
Set your color to black, then open Paint menu and Set Vertex Colors. This will change the entire mesh vertex color to black, which is equivalent to no highlight.
Now set your color to hex #0080FF or so. This is the color we will be using to paint our highlights.
