Can I go blonde in one appointment?

It depends entirely on your starting point and color history. Virgin dark hair can often lift two to three levels safely in one session. Previously box-colored or henna-treated hair almost always needs multiple appointments to get there without compromising the hair.

How much does going blonde cost?

Blonding starts at $150 and rises with hair length, density and how many sessions the transformation needs. Michelle quotes the full plan at consultation so there are no surprises partway through.

How do I stop my blonde from turning brassy?

Use a purple shampoo once a week rather than every wash, filter or at least cool your rinse water, and book a gloss about halfway between full color appointments. Michelle will match a specific toning product to your shade.

How often do blonde highlights need to be redone?

Foiled blonde typically needs a refresh every 6 to 8 weeks. Hand-painted or lived-in blonde stretches to 10 to 14 weeks because the grow-out is intentionally soft.

Why Choose Michelle

Your Trusted Blonding Expert in Greece

Blonding is the most technical work in the salon and the easiest to get wrong. Michelle Doyle maps out how light your hair can safely go in a single session, then builds a plan that gets you there over one, two or three visits depending on what your hair has been through.

Most blonde appointments combine techniques: foils where you need concentrated brightness, hand-painting where you want a softer grow-out, and a toner or gloss at the bowl to land the exact tone. That combination is what separates an expensive-looking blonde from an obviously striped one.

Tone is the part people underestimate. Rochester water and everyday shampoo pull blonde warm within weeks, so Michelle sends every blonde client home with a specific toning routine and schedules a quick gloss between full appointments to keep it clean.
