Hearts & Hues

For the last few appointments, we have avoided bleach on Sam’s hair.

We have been moving through varying tones of coppers, reds & violets.

For this appointment, we added pastel moneypiece that would give a maximum results, without lightening the full head.

I believe that no matter what colour you’re doing - bright or natural - the placement, tone & condition of the hair are everything. You can see how healthy and glossy the hair is, even after lightening ✨

This colour placement and shade is perfect for her skin tone/facial features and it works harmoniously with the haircut.

When you come to see us, we never want to copy paste your inspiration photo - we want to work with you to create something even better 🧡

When you see a before and after like this, the price tag can feel like a lot. Especially when it doesn’t consider any aftercare products 👀

This is a full transformation on seriously thick, long hair and there are a lot of moving parts as to what the price reflects.

Firstly, time.

Although 6 hours in the chair is actually really efficient for this level of transformation, time is the biggest driver of cost in any hair service and it truly can’t be cut down. It covers ethical wages, our rent & all our other overheads.

Next up, the cost of colour.

We dispensed over $300 in colour product alone. High quality colour isn’t cheap and we don’t take that lightly. We don’t overmix it, or waste it. We use a system that weighs every formula accurately to the gram and tells us what it costs us on the back end.

Damage control.

Two applications of K18 throughout the service to keep the hair in the best possible condition while we worked through bleaching out such vibrant colour work on long, fragile hair.

Skill and experience.

Salon owner, proven track record of beautiful results, tonnes of awards,18 years behind the chair and consistent ongoing education.

A fresh haircut & The ongoing plan.

We’ve mapped out a 12-week maintenance schedule where the full service only happens once or twice a year, with targeted touch-ups on visible areas in between. That’s 4 times a year max, and we know that our next appointments will likely be half that cost.

Now, for full transparency - Jade spent the day as a hair model with Stevie, so this wasn’t what the service cost her out of pocket. But we wanted to give you a real, honest look at what
goes into a transformation like this, and where your money actually goes.

It’s not within everyone’s budget for a transformation of this level, but we won’t compromise on quality. What we will do, is always respect your budget and be honest about what is achievable within it 💘
