Frequently Asked Questions

What Color Service should I book?

Partial Highlight VS. Full Highlight
A partial highlight focuses on brightening face-framing pieces, the crown and parting areas. A full highlight provides all-around coverage, including the nape area. If your hair feels too dark underneath when you wear it up, you may need a full highlight.

Balayage, AKA Hair Painting
Hair painting, or balayage, is a French highlighting technique. The lightening effects can vary from naturally sun-kissed to dramatic contrast. This freehand approach creates a softer effect and easier maintenance than the hard lines and regrowth you see when highlighting with foils.

Do I need a consultation before my first color visit?

Consultations are complimentary and only take a few minutes, so they're a great way to make sure your color service fits into your schedule and budget, and that you and your stylist are a good match.

How do I tip?

Gratuity is left to your discretion and much appreciated. We accept both cash and tip on credit cards. Most guests choose to tip 20% of their service cost.

I can’t make my appointment. Now What?
