Your natural undertones determine which blonde tones look best:

During consultation, your colorist will analyze undertones and recommend most flattering blonde shades.

Frequently Asked Questions - Blonde Hair

How long does it take to go blonde from dark hair?

It depends on starting level and desired blonde: Level 4-5 (medium brown) to Level 9 (very light blonde) typically requires 2-4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Realistic timeline: 2-4 months for dramatic lightening while maintaining hair health.

Why does my blonde turn brassy?

Brassiness occurs when cool toner fades, revealing underlying warm pigments. South Florida sun accelerates fading. Solution: Regular toner refreshes every 4-6 weeks and consistent purple shampoo use.

Can I swim with blonde hair?

Yes, with precautions: wet hair with fresh water before entering pool/ocean, wear swim cap when possible, use UV protection products, and wash with purple shampoo immediately after swimming.

How often should I get my blonde touched up?

Balayage: 10-16 weeks | Traditional highlights: 6-10 weeks | Platinum blonde roots: 4-6 weeks | Toner refresh: 4-6 weeks

Is blonde hair more expensive to maintain?

Yes, blonde requires: regular color services ($185-$350), toner refreshes ($85-$125), professional products ($100-150 every 2-3 months), and more frequent deep conditioning. Budget $150-300 monthly for proper blonde maintenance.

Will going blonde damage my hair?

Lightening hair causes some damage, but professional techniques with Olaplex and proper care minimize harm. The key is gradual lightening, not attempting dramatic transformation in one session.
