Because lived-in color should feel intentional — not accidental.
1. Standard Balayage (Low Maintenance)
Best for:
* Brunettes with soft dimension
* Blondes whose natural level blends well
* Clients NOT covering gray
* Clients within 1–2 levels of their natural base
Maintenance Timeline:
🗓 Every 12–14 weeks
Why?
Balayage is designed to grow out seamlessly. If your natural level blends with your lightness, we don’t need to retouch the base — just refresh dimension and tone when needed.
Between visits:
* Gloss/Glaze at 6–8 weeks (optional but recommended)
* Use pH-balanced, color-safe shampoo
* Deep treatment weekly (especially if blonde).
2. Higher Contrast Balayage (Moderate Maintenance)
Best for:
* Natural Level 5 or darker going blonde
* Noticeable contrast between root and lightness
* Brighter, face-framing focus
Maintenance Timeline:
🗓 Every 8–10 weeks
Why?
The bigger the contrast between your natural base and your balayage, the more visible the grow-out becomes. This isn’t “bad” — it just requires more intention.
Between visits:
* Gloss every 6–8 weeks
3. Gray Coverage + Balayage (Higher Maintenance)
Best for:
* Clients covering gray
* Clients shifting their natural base color
* Clients who want consistent brightness at the root
Maintenance Timeline:
🗓 Root retouch every 4–6 weeks
🗓 Balayage refresh every 10–14 weeks
Why?
Gray coverage changes everything. Once we shift your natural base, we’re no longer in “low maintenance” territory — we’re maintaining a new color identity.

The Truth About Balayage Maintenance
Balayage is low maintenance —
but contrast, gray coverage, and base color shifts determine the schedule.
The more we alter your natural level, the more intentional the upkeep.
