What the service includes
Our Color and Partial Highlight service combines an all-over permanent or semi-permanent color with partial highlights that cover roughly half your head. Sessions include a consultation, color application and processing; blow-dry and natural hair add-ons are available for an additional fee. Price is $260 and the appointment length is 90 MINUTES.
This option is for clients who want a uniform base color while adding dimension without full-head highlighting. Expect trade-offs between coverage and contrast: subtler partial placement lowers upkeep while stronger contrast increases maintenance. We factor in Raleigh's humid summers when discussing styling and long-term color care.
What shapes your final result
Your starting color, previous chemical history, length and texture determine how the color and partial highlights turn out. Porosity and any existing dye affect lift and tone; partial highlights that cover roughly half the head create placement choices that balance natural regrowth with dimensional contrast. The stylist will review these constraints before proceeding.
Decisions about tone and placement are practical: warmer or cooler tones interact differently with sun exposure and local humidity, and denser placement increases contrast but may raise maintenance. We also consider your schedule and commute—many clients from Brentwood and Northeast Raleigh time appointments around shopping or work along Capital Boulevard.
Preparing and aftercare guidelines
Before your appointment, bring photos, a list of recent color services and any concerns about previous processing. Sharing your schedule helps us recommend add-ons—blow-dry and natural hair enhancements are available for an additional fee—so you can decide whether to include styling after the color application during your 90 MINUTES appointment.
Aftercare centers on color-preserving shampoo and conditioner, scheduled touch-ups and heat-protectant styling to manage durability and shine. Frequency of follow-ups varies with contrast and hair growth; we suggest planning future bookings when you leave. Our location near Brentwood Shopping Center makes returning convenient for Raleigh and nearby communities.
