Balayage That Grows Out Softly

Balayage is painted on by hand, piece by piece, so the brightness sits where light would naturally hit. A soft root means no hard line as your hair grows, and fewer appointments to keep it looking good.

It works on most lengths and textures, from long layers to shoulder-length cuts, and can be as subtle or as bright as you like.

Foils and Dimensional Color

Foils give more lift and a brighter, more even blonde. Choose full blonding for the most brightness through the whole head, or partial for the top, crown and sides.

Dimensional color blends 2 to 3 complementary tones for depth and movement, so your color never looks flat.

Platinum Blonde

Platinum takes careful, full lightening and toning from base to ends, plus a customized treatment to keep your hair strong. It's our brightest blonde, and it starts with an honest conversation about upkeep.

  • Lightening done carefully, with your hair's condition in mind.
  • Honest upkeep. You'll know what your blonde takes to maintain before we start.

Balayage and Blonding FAQ

How much is balayage in The Woodlands?

At Salon Linen, full blonding (foils or balayage) starts at $325 and partial blonding starts at $265, both with a blow dry and style. Dimensional color starts at $290, and platinum starts at $400. Final price depends on length, thickness and how much product your hair needs.

What is the difference between balayage and foils?

Balayage is painted on by hand for a soft, blended result that grows out gently. Foils give more lift and a brighter, more even result. During your consultation we'll recommend the one that fits your hair and how often you want to come in.

How long does a blonding appointment take?

Plan on about 2.5 to 3.5 hours for balayage and foils, up to 4 hours for dimensional color, and about 4.5 hours for platinum, including your blow dry and style.

How often do I need to come back?

Balayage and lived-in blonding can often go 3 to 4 months between visits. Foils usually look best every 8 to 12 weeks. A glaze in between keeps your tone fresh.

Can I go from dark to blonde in one visit?

Sometimes, but not always. It depends on your starting color and your hair's condition. Big changes are often done over two or more visits to keep your hair healthy. A free consultation is the best place to start.
