The service

What your balayage appointment includes

Consultation, hand painting and toner in one visit

The fear with balayage is always the same: that it comes out striped, or that in two months the regrowth line shows. That's why I paint it strand by strand, by hand, taking few color clients a day — so you leave with the blonde you had in mind, not whatever the rushed schedule allowed. We start by checking previous color, the condition of your length and the tone you want. That sets the plan before we touch the hair.

Lightener is painted by hand in careful sections, then finished with toner and treatment.

It's ideal when you want a color change without committing to monthly root touch-ups.

Hair color — $105

Sometimes you're not looking to lighten — you want color that reads even and healthy from root to end, without that orange tint box dye leaves behind. For grey coverage, an even tone or a full color change, hair color creates an even result throughout.

It also complements balayage with a deeper base or a refresh between lightening sessions.

At the consultation we'll tell you which service fits best.

Before you book

What is the technique exactly?

Lightener painted by hand on the surface of the strand, no full-head foils. That's why the change reads as a gradient instead of a line.

How long does it last?

Three to five months before regrowth shows. The toner is worth refreshing every 8 to 10 weeks so the blonde doesn't turn yellow.

Why do it at GMS?

We take few color clients a day so the painting isn't rushed, we quote a closed price before starting, and we work in Spanish and English.

How much does a balayage cost in Madera, CA?

Balayage is $280 and includes consultation, hand-painting and toner. Hair color is $105; we always confirm the service before we start.
