How it works
Balayage is hand-painted lightening — your stylist places light exactly where the sun would, so it grows out soft and you're not chained to a six-week retouch. We tone, treat, and finish with a blow dry, all with Aveda's naturally derived color line.
Our senior colorists have been doing dimensional color at Element for 15 years and counting.
FAQs
Partial balayage is $200–$300 and full balayage is $250–$350+, depending on hair length and stylist level. Ombré is priced the same. A free 15-minute consultation gets you an exact number before you commit.
Dark hair usually needs more lightening sessions to go dramatically blonde, so expect the upper end of the $250–$350 range for a full balayage, and your stylist may recommend spreading it over two visits. The consultation is free, so ask.
Plan on 2–3 hours for a partial and 3–4 for a full balayage, including toning and blow dry.
Foils lighten from the root in neat sections for an all-over effect; balayage is hand-painted for a softer, grown-in look with less obvious regrowth. Foils run $130–$280, balayage $200–$350.
That's the beauty of it — because it grows out soft, most clients refresh every 3–4 months instead of every 6–8 weeks.
