Balayage & highlights
Balayage that grows out softly.
Good lightening is planned for month three, not just day one. We paint where the light naturally hits, keep your roots soft, and protect your hair with a bond builder in every bowl. If your goal needs two visits to reach safely, we'll say so up front.

In the chair
How the appointment goes.
-
Plan the placement
We look at your parting, your face shape and how you wear your hair to decide where the brightness goes.
-
Paint or foil
Balayage is painted by hand for a soft blend. Foils give more lift and a more even result.
-
Tone to your water
Vancouver water and your own undertone decide the toner, not a filter.
-
Bond and gloss
A bond treatment protects the hair, and a gloss seals in the shine.

Sample review
"Felix is careful in the best way, and Noor stopped by twice to check his foils. My partial balayage grew out so softly that I pushed my next appointment back a full month."

Questions
Balayage, answered
Should I get balayage or foils?
Balayage gives a softer, lived-in blend and grows out gently. Foils give brighter, more even lift and suit fine hair or true blondes. Many guests get a mix. Your stylist will recommend one at the consultation.
Can I go platinum in one visit?
Usually not safely. Big jumps in lightness are done over two or more visits with bond care in between. We'd rather take longer than damage your hair.
How often do I need a refresh?
Most balayage looks good for 3 to 4 months. A gloss in between keeps the tone fresh without a full appointment.
Cancelling or running late? Free to move up to 24 hours ahead; half the price inside 24 hours. Up to 15 minutes late, we'll still fit you in if we can. All policies in plain words
