Maintenance can be between 3-6 months between visits, depending on each person. However, we do recommend coming in at least every 8 weeks to get a toner as brassy tones can begin to peak through. It is more personalized. Every balayage is different: Placement, gradation, and color is based on your hair color, texture, and length. It can be personalized to each client's preferences and to highlight or soften facial features. Our stylists always take into consideration clients skin tone and natural base color to determine which tones will work best for them. Please keep in mind when browsing through our that no two balayages should look the same. It's trendy! Look at Kardashians and Chrissy Teigen, those are some gorgeous balayages!
