Session length depends on technique and coverage; most appointments last 1.5 to 3 hours. Full hand-painted looks or very long, dense hair may take longer. Your stylist will confirm timing during consultation and schedule appropriately.

When performed by trained stylists with proper formulation and bonding treatments, damage is minimized. We assess hair condition first, use protective products, and recommend conditioning treatments or gradual lightening to preserve strength and elasticity.

Touch-up frequency depends on technique — every 6–8 weeks for traditional foil, 8–12+ weeks for balayage or lived-in looks. We tailor a plan based on regrowth, tone, and your maintenance preference for the best results.

Both are possible but depend on your current color, hair health, and previous chemical history. Going lighter may need multiple sessions; going darker often requires less processing. Your stylist will create a safe, realistic timeline and treatment plan.

Use sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo and conditioner, rinse with cool water, limit heat styling, apply UV and heat protectants, and schedule periodic glosses or toners. Regular deep conditioning and professional touch-ups help preserve vibrancy and hair health.

Pricing starts at $95 and varies by hair length, density, desired coverage, and technique (foil vs hand-painted). Additional services like toning, Olaplex, or extra product use may affect the final quote after your consultation.
