Our Services Glossary
Balayage
Balayage is a French word meaning 'to sweep' or 'to paint'. It allows for a sun-kissed natural-looking hair color, similar to what nature gives us as children.
Ombré
The hair world borrowed the term 'ombre' from the French word meaning shaded or shading. Ombre hair color is generally darker at the roots through the mid-shaft and then gradually gets lighter from the mid-shaft to the ends.
Babylights
Babylights are delicate highlights created using a very fine hair color technique to mimic the subtle, dimensional hair color seen on children's hair. Babylights can be applied to any hair color or hair type. The process can be done in any shade to match any skin tone.
Foilyage
Foilyage is a technique colorists use when they want to get more lift out of the ends and can't achieve that with balayage or traditional foils. They go in and balayage inside the foil.
Highlights
Full highlights are for the client who wants to see streaks of lightness throughout her hair. Simply put, that means using foils or balayage placed throughout the entire head of hair. This will give all over brightness throughout the hair, but with less dimension than partial highlights. A partial highlight is literally a highlight service that applies highlights to only part of your head. Highlights are placed, typically, in only the mohawk section of your head, although some stylists consider a partial highlight to be the top half, or the top and side sections of your head.
Face Framing Foils
This is a common request in the world of color in the salon. Why? Because lighter color looks and feels more youthful and creates a more slender look around the face. The lighter colors around the face can help minimize signs of aging as well as provide a custom color, just for you.
Single Process
Single Process means that a new color or toner is applied all over to create a new base color. The hair is lifted and deposited in one easy step. It's the most common out of the two, and it's wonderful for covering grays and adding shininess to dull hair.
Gloss
A hair gloss is a semi-permanent treatment that can last from four to six weeks. Most formulas are tinted, although transparent shine treatments are available. Whereas a traditional dye opens the hair cuticle to change the color from the inside, a gloss coats and seals the cuticle for a smooth surface.
Keratin Fusion Texture Control
Keratin Fusion Texture Control is an innovative salon service that instantly transforms coarse, curly, unruly hair into smooth, straight and manageable locks. Keratin Fusion Texture Control gently and effectively transforms the internal bonds of the hair and simultaneously imparts pure keratin proteins. Cysteamine, a natural amino acid, clings to the hair's disulfide bonds, allowing a straighter configuration to be bonded into the hair.
Brazilian Blowout
Through the use of breakthrough bonding technologies, tthis customizable smoothing treatment actually improves the condition of the hair by creating a protective protein layer around the hair shaft to eliminate frizz and smooth the cuticle. Complimentary Consultation required.
