REQUESTING COLOR INSTEAD OF A FOIL- Color is not a foil when scheduling. If you book for color you are booking for single process color root touch up and not a foil. They are different time slots blocked off. If you receive foiling you will need to specify the type of foil for the correct time slot.
HIGHLIGHT WITH TONER Please book for both highlight and toner service at the time your scheduling before coming to your appointment if you routinely receive both services at your previous salons to reserve the correct time slot needed between clients for both services and not be turned away without the correct time needed to perform all services.

Results get brighter each time if you would like.
Its ideal to book balayage and a toner at your appointment to block off additional time needed for multiple services required and not push into another appointment time. Highlight Toner may be required to control warm tones and end results.
Aluminum Foiling techniques are required for desired brighter blond tones on dark hair or colored hair with heat and more lift to brighten to a lighter shade with the same results.
