Blonde Magic:

All over color generally means a color applied from roots to ends of your hair. A root retouch generally means applying color to less than two inches of hair from your scalp. Highlights and balayage are both lightening techniques used to add dimension to your hair. Balayage refers to a handpainted more lived in look and highlights are traditionally a more high maintenance blonde look. 

Color services vary widely. A simple root touch-up might take 1.5 hours, while a detailed balayage, full highlights, or complex color can take anywhere from 2.5 to 4 hours, not including any haircut or styling time. Consultations help take the guesswork out of this!

All chemical processes cause some level of stress to the hair. However, I use only high-quality, professional-grade products and frequently use bond-building treatments to maintain and rebuild the integrity of your hair during the process. We prioritize hair health over aggressive, rapid results.

The best way to maintain your color is by using color-safe, sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners, washing in cool or lukewarm water, and always applying a heat protectant before styling.

A color correction is exactly what it sounds like, correcting something you don’t like. During our color consultation we’ll talk about the steps necessary to reach your dream outcome and how long it will take. It could be as simple as one longer appointment or a few appointments staggered out. But the goal is always to preserve the health of your hair and to do everything in the safest way possible.

This depends on you and your maintenance level. Root retouches can be 4-8 weeks, with the option of doing all over every couple of visits to keep things fresh. Balayage/highlights can be anywhere from 6 weeks to once a year with toners done quarterly when you get your hair trimmed.
