What It Costs

What moves the price: how much lift your hair needs, your length and density, whether you add a gloss and blowout, and which stylist you book. Prices for every service are on the Service Menu, which we keep current.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between highlights and balayage?

Foil highlights add bright, consistent dimension from root to ends. Balayage is hand-painted for a softer, sun-kissed look that grows out without a harsh line.

How long does a full highlight take?

Plan for 2.5 to 3.5 hours including gloss and blowout. Going significantly lighter or correcting old color may require multiple sessions.

Will balayage damage my hair?

Lightening is a chemical service, so technique is everything. We use bond builders, lower-impact lifting and a finishing glaze, and we split bigger changes across visits to protect your hair.

How often do balayage clients come back?

Most clients refresh every 10 to 14 weeks because balayage grows out so beautifully. Gloss-only visits in between keep tone bright.
