Questions about blonde at the studio

Yes. Every new color client starts with one, so your colorist sees your hair and your history before mixing anything. It takes 20 to 30 minutes and ends with a plan.

A balayage takes three to four hours, foil highlights two and a half to three and a half, and a toner and gloss about 45 minutes. Every service on the menu lists its length.

It depends on your starting shade and your hair's history. Lighter starting shades often take one visit; darker ones usually take more, and we say so before we start.

Photos of the blonde you like and one you don't, and what you remember about past color: box color, salon color, henna or a smoothing treatment, and roughly when.
