Lived-In Color

LIVED IN COLOR

Are you looking to spend less time in salon and have a seamless grow out? You're in the right place!

Effortless Color That Grows With You

Traditional highlights can leave harsh grow out lines and have you back in the salon every few weeks. That is why I specialize in lived in color, a low maintenance and natural approach that keeps your hair looking fresh and effortless long after your visit.

 

With lived in color, your hair grows out softly without the obvious regrowth or harsh lines. This means fewer touchups, less time in the salon, and more time for the moments that matter most.

 

You may have heard words like balayage, teasylights, babylights, or money piece. Think of those as different tools in my toolbox. I may use one or several of these techniques to achieve your look, and each one helps create a seamless grow out and the effortless finish that lived in color is known for.

 

Not everyone is a candidate for painted highlights, and that is where my professional eye comes in. During your consultation, I will determine which methods suit your hair best so we can reach your desired outcome in a way that feels natural and beautiful for you.

 

My focus is simple. Hair that fits your lifestyle, makes you feel confident, and looks beautiful every single day, not just the day you leave my chair.

What To Expect

Every head of hair is different, and your maintenance schedule will depend on your color and lifestyle. Most of my guests refresh their highlights every three to six months, and come in for a Refresh Reservation to tone and trim in-between visits.

Some of my guests stretch their highlight visits even longer, sometimes once a year, and that works too. It truly depends on what we create together and how you like your hair to look as it grows out.

No matter how often you choose to visit, it is important to schedule a trim every 8 to 12 weeks. Regular trims keep your hair healthy, prevent split ends, and help your color last and look its best.

​​Lived-In-Color works for almost everyone! Whether you're blonde, brunette, or somewhere in between, I customize a technique to match your hair texture, lifestyle, and desired level of brightness.

You will love lived in color if:

  • You're Busy (moms, professionals, or anyone who doesn't want to visit the salon frequently.)

  • On A Budget (getting your hair done can be expensive. This allows for more time between visits, while still having beautiful hair. 

  • You want natural-looking dimension and grow out (no harsh lines, or stark contrast.Lived-In-Color allows you to have soft blended dimension so you can enjoy beautiful effortless hair.)

Pro Tip For Lived-In-Color Guests:

To keep your color looking fresh and your hair healthy, regular trims are key. Most of my Lived-In-Color guests come in every 6-8 weeks for a refresh. This would include a gloss (as it fades over time) and a trim, refreshing the color so it looks like you just had it done.
