All About Balayage | The Balayage Studio

The Balayage Experience

At The Balayage Studio, your experience goes far beyond beautiful hair — it’s about connection, confidence, and care.

Every balayage service begins with an in-depth consultation where we talk about your hair goals, lifestyle, and maintenance preferences. From there, I create a fully customized color plan designed to enhance your natural tones, complement your skin, and grow out seamlessly.

What sets my balayage apart is the attention to detail — from precise placement and thoughtful formulation to a relaxing, one-on-one environment where you feel seen and heard. While your color develops, enjoy elevated snacks, beverages, and handcrafted cocktails or mocktails, all curated to make your visit feel indulgent and comfortable. Each session is finished with a luxurious blowout and soft beach wave style, leaving you with that effortless, lived-in look you’ll love.

Every detail is designed with intention — so you leave not only loving your hair, but the entire experience that came with it.

Commonly asked Balayage Questions & Answers

What is the upkeep to maintain a Balayage?

There are no harsh grow out lines with a free hand balayage, so how often you visit is up to you. The toner, which controls how warm/ashy the hair appears, typically fade within 6-8 weeks. If the goal is continuing the lightening journey you should book your next appointment within this time frame. You should also book your next service in this time frame if you dislike any warm tones, or if you prefer blonde that is always close to the root or looks well maintained.

3 months is a common time frame for most guests who prefer a low maintenance balayage, but still prefer to maintain their color regularly. Other guests can extend their appointments 6 months to a full year! The blend and grow out really is that amazingly flawless!

How should I prep my hair before each service?

The best hair for balayaging:

Clean & freshly washed (within 24 hours), preferably with a clarifying shampoo.
Fully dried
No messy buns or styling products

How much should I plan on investing my first appointment?

Depending on how light you wish to go, how dark your hair is currently, previous color history, and your own hair length and density between $200-$600, with most my new guests investing approximately $300-$350 with haircut.

How many sessions should I expect?

There is no easy answer to this. You will love your balayage every time you leave though. Depending on your goal, it could take many sessions. Balayage typically starts to create a dimensional palette after 2-3 sessions, regardless of goal.

Will it still look good when I wear it straight or up in a pony tail?

Your new balayage will look amazing both straight and when you wear it up. My consultations are in depth to discover how YOU primarily wear your hair, which determines which techniques I use. If you wear your hair primarily straight I will adjust my techniques to give you the result you are craving to see on straight hair. Similarly, because I am hair painting, your hairline will look flawless when you wear your hair up. Meaning, you will not see any grown out highlights!
