Lighter, darker
or a little upkeep.

The saved photo is a good start. What’s already on your hair matters, too. Here’s how the main services differ.

Highlights

Partial highlights brighten selected areas. Full highlights add brightness throughout your hair. High Impact Highlight is for maximum blonding, including the ends.

All Over Color

For one shade from roots to ends, at the same depth or darker. This service does not make your hair lighter.

Root touch-up

For color on new growth. Touch-up and Blow-Dry is $95; Touch-up and Haircut is $140. Choose the finish you want with your root color.

Color Correction Consultation

The $0 consultation comes before color correction. Start here for a big change or old dark dye. We’ll discuss your goal and budget before booking the work.

Highlights, roots and a cut at the same visit? Look for the combined service so you book time for each part.

Think past the first good hair day.

The roots will grow. Let’s plan for that. Lived-in color keeps some depth at the root for a softer grow-out, in blonde or brunette. Tell me how often you want to return before we choose your color.

BEFORE YOU BOOK

A few
helpful answers.

Should I choose partial, full or high-impact highlights?

Can dark hair go blonde in one visit?

It depends on your starting color, past dye and hair condition. Old dark permanent dye can take several visits to lift. A color consultation lets us discuss your goal and budget before choosing the service.

How often will I need color appointments?

Your color and how much grow-out you like help set the schedule. Tell me how often you want to come in. We’ll talk about the color you want and the upkeep it will need.

Ask about your color goal (opens a new tab)
Should I mention color I’ve used at home?

Yes. Tell me about past dye, even if you’ve covered it since. It helps me understand the starting point and what a bigger change may take.

Prepare for your first visit
How is color correction priced?

Color correction is priced by the hour. The Color Correction Consultation is $0 and comes first, so we can discuss your goal and budget before you book the color work.
