FAQs
What hair coloring services do you offer for grey coverage?

I'm worried about hair damage from bleach. How do you ensure the health of my hair during the coloring process?

We created a Hydro-Lift process which leaves hair the best hair condition during color lifting. We also offer Olaplex and other restorative products to strengthen and protect your hair during and after the coloring process.
Can you explain what balayage is and why it's a popular choice?
Balayage is a freehand hair coloring technique that creates a soft and natural-looking gradient effect. It's popular because it requires less maintenance and grows out beautifully, meaning fewer visits to the salon. Our skilled colorists will customize the balayage to complement your skin tone and style preferences.
How long does a typical hair coloring session take?
The duration of a hair coloring session can vary based on the complexity of the service and your hair's condition. Generally, a single process color can take around 1 hour, while more intricate techniques like balayage might take slightly longer. Your stylist can provide a more accurate estimate during your appointment.
What's the best way to maintain the vibrancy of my new hair color?
To extend the life of your hair color, we recommend using color-safe shampoos and color deposit conditioners, washing your hair with cool water, and avoiding excessive sun exposure. Additionally, regular touch-up appointments will help maintain the vibrancy and freshness of your color.

What is balayage and why is it so popular?
Balayage is a hand-painted highlighting technique that creates a soft, natural, sun-kissed look. It grows out beautifully with no harsh lines, making it perfect for women who want effortless, low-maintenance color.
Is balayage better than traditional highlights?
Balayage offers a more natural, blended result compared to traditional foil highlights. It’s ideal for clients who want dimension, softness, and a more modern, luxury finish.
How long does balayage last?
Balayage can last 3 to 6 months because it grows out naturally without harsh regrowth lines, making it one of the most low-maintenance color options.
How much does balayage cost in Beverly Hills or Los Angeles?
Luxury balayage services typically range from $300 to $1000+, depending on hair length, density, and whether color correction is needed. Our talented hair colorists will make your hair look and feel better before you walk out our salon.

I came to this salon for K-tip extensions because they advertise specializing in fine and thin hair. I paid around $1,500 for the initial install. Unfortunately, after installation, the hair quality was not what was represented. After just one wash and light heat styling, the extensions developed a strong chemical odor and behaved very differently from my own human hair clip-ins. Some strands even melted during a burn test, indicating inconsistent hair quality.
The salon offered to remove the extensions and reinstall a new batch of hair. I was charged an additional price difference for what was described as higher-quality hair. During my original consultation, however, I was never given options regarding hair quality or informed that different tiers existed. The new extensions were the quality I had expected initially — they looked great, and the removal of the first batch was quick and painless, with no immediate hair loss noticed.
About one to two weeks into having the new extensions, one K-tip fell out and my natural hair came out with it. I contacted the salon and was told this was normal and likely due to brushing. I was offered a reinstall, but I decided not to proceed. After losing three out of the 85 installed K-tips, I chose to have all of them removed.
When the extensions were removed after about 10 weeks, I experienced significant hair loss and a noticeable reduction in ponytail thickness. During removal, I was told comments such as “it’s going to feel like you have no hair, but you do,” and “see, you still have hair,” which felt dismissive given the amount of hair I was losing. Roughly half of the removal felt easy and painless, but the other half involved a lot of tugging and pulling that felt like my hair was being ripped out. As this was my first time having extensions, I didn’t realize at the time that this wasn’t normal.
I was allowed to keep the extensions to potentially reuse later, and upon examining them, many of the K-tips still had my natural hair trapped in them. The density change was immediate and extremely distressing.
To their credit, the owner did personally step in, acknowledged that the original hair quality was unacceptable, and was responsive and willing to redo the install. I appreciate that accountability and professionalism.
That said, based on my experience, I would strongly caution anyone with fine, thin, or thyroid-related hair conditions to think very carefully before choosing K-tip extensions, even at a high-end salon. I believe the K-tips were too heavy for my fine hair, and that my hair could not tolerate the method or the removal process, resulting in significant hair loss.
I wish during my consultation that I had been advised against this method after my hair was examined. I went into the consultation expressing fear of hair damage and explaining that my hair had recently been cut too short, which is why I was considering extensions — but I was very concerned about long-term damage. I went into removal believing my hair would be longer and healthier afterward. Instead, I lost nearly half the hair I walked in with and felt more self-conscious than before. During removal it’s clear the k-tips were not fully dissolved and the stylist ripped them out with my hair still attached resulting in multiple bald spots all over my head. I’m extremely disappointed about the damage this salon caused to my hair.
I was previously an avid clip-in user and had switched to K-tips in hopes of being gentler on my hair. After this experience, I didn’t even feel like my hair could support clip-ins anymore.
All in all, I paid close to $2,000 and lost a significant amount of hair when I already had limited density to begin with. I’m sharing this not out of malice, but to help others make an informed decision.
