We’re making some exciting changes to our lightening menu to give you a
more personalized experience!
You’ll notice we’re using Brightening instead of Blonding because not
everyone who wants to go lighter wants to be blonde.
Whether you want subtle brightness, more dimension, face-framing lightness, or a gradual change, your stylist can customize your service to your hair and your goals.
You’ll choose your Brightening service based on the amount and placement of
lightening you want, and your stylist can add what your hair needs —
like a gloss, Color in Between, treatment, or Extra Love.
