Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Color, Partial Highlight and Blow-Dry.
Most appointments take 2 to 3 hours depending on hair length, thickness, and choice of permanent or semi-permanent color. Partial highlight placement and processing time can extend the appointment; your stylist provides a precise estimate during consultation.
When performed correctly by our stylists, damage is minimized. We assess hair condition first and use gentle formulas, bond-repair treatments, and Olaplex-style protocols to strengthen hair while coloring and highlighting.
Color root-touch and semi-permanent refreshes are typically every 4–8 weeks; partial highlights usually need less frequent refresh, about 8–12 weeks. We recommend routine trims and glossing treatments to keep tone vibrant between appointments.
Yes. Permanent color offers longer-lasting coverage while semi-permanent provides gentler, softer tone changes. Your stylist will recommend the best option based on desired longevity, hair health, and previous color history after an in-salon consultation.
Come with dry, product-free hair and bring photos of your desired color and highlights. Avoid washing immediately before if scalp sensitivity or patch test is needed; arrive on time for a full consultation.
We recommend sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo and conditioner, regular deep conditioning masks, and heat protectant sprays. Use purple shampoo sparingly for brass control and book occasional gloss treatments to refresh tone and maintain shine.
