Frequently Asked Questions
Do you cut hair?I specialize exclusively in hair color.
After more than 20 years behind the chair - including time working with top colorists in New York and Los Angeles - I chose to focus on one thing...
Do you do balayage?I don't offer traditional balayage. Instead, I specialize in customized foil highlights because they allow me to place every highlight with intention.
Most people are naturally lighter around the face and gradually deeper toward the back. By controlling exactly where each highlight begins and ends, I can create color that mimics that natural pattern while complementing your features, hair and lifestyle.
My focus isn't on following a trend, it's on creating the most flattering result for you.
What's a smudge?A smudge is a quick root-softening service that blends gray and softens your natural color.
It's often paired with highlights to create a brighter overall result while keeping the grow-out soft and natural. It can also be done between highlight appointments as a simple way to refresh your color without committing to a full color service.
How often will I need highlights?Every client is a little different but 12 weeks is a good starting point for maintaining your color..
Some clients prefer a brighter, more blonde look and choose to come in a little sooner. Others love a softer, more lived-in grow-out and comfortably stretch their appointments to 16–20 weeks or longer.
My goal is to create color that fits your lifestyle, not the other way around. During your consultation, we'll talk about your hair goals and create a maintenance plan that works for you.
