Appointments typically range from 2.5 to 4 hours depending on hair length, thickness, and level of lift required. Your stylist will review goals during consultation and provide a more accurate time estimate before starting.

A patch or allergy test is recommended for new clients or those trying new color ingredients. We advise testing 48 to 72 hours prior to your appointment to ensure safety and prevent reactions.

Arrive with hair dry and lightly styled, avoiding heavy product buildup. If possible, skip washing for one day so natural oils protect the scalp. Bring photos and notes about previous color for best results.

Lightening does lift the cuticle, but professional techniques, bond-building treatments, and customized processing minimize damage. Your stylist will assess condition and recommend strengthening treatments to maintain healthy hair.

Highlights can stay vibrant for several months; toner tones may fade after 4–8 weeks. Haircut shape lasts until growth requires a trim, usually 6–12 weeks depending on hair growth and care habits.

Use sulfate-free shampoo, a color-safe conditioner, occasional purple shampoo for tone, and weekly deep conditioning. Minimize heat styling, use heat protectant, and schedule regular glosses or trims to extend results.
